Avacta Group has sold its first Optim unit in the US.

The unnamed buyer is one of the top ten pharma companies in the world. The US is around 50% of the addressable market for Optim. There are 30 more leads in the US.

Optim is a bench-top machine that can analyse very early stage drug compounds. They can be analysed using small sample sizes. The Optim costs around £100,000 and generates consumable revenues.

Avacta had £1.43m in the bank at the end of July 2010 but cash has been flowing out of the business.

At 1.01p a share, up 0.05p on the day, Avacta is valued at £14.6m.
