TRISTEL plc
("Tristel" or the "Company")
Publication of Poster by Mayo Clinic
North America update
Tristel plc (AIM: TSTL), the manufacturer of infection prevention products,
notes the publication of a poster by the Mayo Clinic at the AORN* Global
Surgical Conference & Expo in Boston, MA (USA) published this week,
entitled, "Implementing a new method of High-Level disinfection foam for
ultrasound probes."
The poster reported on the outcome of a new method of High-Level Disinfection
("HLD"), Tristel ULT™, used in a 90-day trial by 11 Mayo Clinic staff
members to reprocess 189 ultrasound probes, with no reported surgical site
infections during the trial.
The poster described the new method of HLD foam as an effective and efficient
method for HLD of ultrasound probes with minimal reprocessing turn-around time
as well as being safe, easy to use, and cost effective. The poster also
describes how the new HLD foam reduces reprocessing time minimising the number
of ultrasound probes needed as well as reducing the damage to ultrasound
probes compared to other methods.

This positive case-study of US adoption follows the news announced in February
2025
(https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/TSTL/unaudited-interim-results/16910827)
that an updated standard compiled by the Association for the Advancement of
Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) and adopted by the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) acknowledged chlorine dioxide foam as a novel modality for
high-level disinfection of medical devices.
This also adds to the growing number of US case studies that highlight Tristel
ULT™ as a novel HLD able to achieve faster, simpler endocavitary probe
processing for busy urology practices. In May 2024, US urologist, Dr Matthew
Allaway, published a white paper called "Simplifying High-Level Disinfection
for Urological Procedures: A Case Study"

North America update
Sales of Tristel ULT in North America continue to build momentum, with strong
sequential growth delivered quarter on quarter in line with internal
forecasts.
The solid growth reflects increasing adoption of the Company's technology,
supported by growing customer engagement and expanding usage within existing
accounts. At the end of the third quarter, so far this financial year the
Company estimates that Tristel ULT had been used for over 200,000 disinfection
procedures in North America.
Matt Sassone, Chief Executive Officer of Tristel, commented: "We are delighted
to see such positive feedback on the use of Tristel ULT in clinical practice
at the renowned Mayo Clinic. As a leading US hospital, the Mayo Clinic pride
themselves in excellence and are always seeking to adopt the best possible
practices in infection control. To have them present this poster to the
thousands of perioperative professionals who attend this conference is a great
support to our plans to wider drive adoption in the US.
"We're confident in our continued momentum across North America and we look
forward to US revenues becoming substantial in the years ahead. As Tristel ULT
is manufactured in the United States by our partner, Parker Labs, we're
confident that the newly announced tariffs will have no adverse impact on our
pricing or sales performance in North America."
