zNose(R) Detects Liquid Bomb (TATP) and Its Chemical Components
Business Wire - August 14, 2006 9:00 AM ET
An innovative homeland security product called zNose(R), manufactured by Southern California high-tech company Electronic Sensor Technology, Inc. (OTCBB:ESNR), has a proven capability in detecting a liquid bomb called TATP and its related chemical components in addition to detection of conventional explosives, according to Dr. Teong C. Lim, President and CEO of the company.
The global alert of the terrorists’ planned attack on international passenger airlines in London that was uncovered yesterday indicated that the bomb ingredients they were using in the planned attacks was tri-cycloacetone peroxide (TATP). This crystalline material can be produced from common acetone, peroxide, and sulfuric acid, yet it has the explosive power of RDX. zNose(R) has a long proven record of detecting these ingredients either in a finished TATP chemical form or its component, acetone, with a sensitivity of parts per billion (10 (-9)) in less than ten (10) seconds. TATP is a relatively volatile explosive and readily produces vapors which can be detected by the zNose. The most publicized account of TATP usage was that of Richard Reid, the shoe bomber, but TATP is often used by Hamas "human" bombers in Israel. Further detail on the subject is available through the following link: http://www.estcal.com/TechPapers/Sec…Explosives.doc
EST’s product is currently distributed worldwide including Middle East, China and Europe for various applications such as Security, Environmental Monitoring and Petrochemical Plant Safety.
NEW PR (zNose(R) Detects Sarin and Mustard Gas at Part Per Trillion Level)
NEWBURY PARK, Calif., Aug 19, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Electronic Sensor
Technology (EST) (OTCBB:ESNR), a leading provider of innovative homeland
security and environmental solutions, announces excellent results of real nerve
agent testing in China. The experiment was performed by EST's distributor in
China, Beijing R&D Technology, using a military facility in China.
This is the first time the zNose(R) has actually measured real nerve agents,
simulants were used in prior testing. Sarin and Mustard Gas were detected at
very low concentrations levels. The minimum detection level (MDL) for Sarin is
85 parts per trillion (ppt) and the MDL for Mustard Gas is 100 ppt. These levels
are well below the concentrations that begin to cause effects in an exposed
population. The IDLH (Immediately Dangerous to Life and Health) level is the
concentration of a nerve agent that would cause immediate or delayed permanent
adverse effects after 30 minutes of unprotected exposure. The IDLH value for
Sarin is 30 parts per billion. (1 part per billion is 1000 times larger than 1
part per trillion) Based on the above data, the zNose would give an indication
of a Sarin attack at levels 350 times lower than the IDLH concentration. Mustard
gas is less hazardous than Sarin (a higher IDLH) and thus would also be easily
detectable before it poses a serious threat. Some nerve agents such as Sarin are
odorless and cause permanent adverse effects or even death well before exposure
is realized. In order to save human lives, it is critical to have a detection
system in place that can detect these gases at very low concentrations. This
makes the zNose a great sensory tool in the fight to protect lives from nerve
agent attack.

The zNose has any number of functions and uses. EST hardly ever puts enough information in it's PR's. Nor do they do follow up PR's on the companys using the products. It always seems to be a secret, with a publically trading company? I realize that some sales require an NDA agreement, but it cannot be all sales. This company is doing a lot better than we know IMHO. If they only knew how to promote themselves.
Good luck.
6 zNoses to one customer is a really nice order. Is this part of the large order to Bejing R&D from last November? I wonder what the Chinese are using the zNoses for? I also wonder what the units sold to Kuwait are being used for? I wonder what the units sold to the Navy are being used for?
NEWBURY PARK, Calif., Aug 13, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Electronic Sensor
Technology (EST) (OTCBB:ESNR), a leading provider of innovative homeland
security and environmental solutions, announces the receipt of an additional
order for 6 units of zNose(R) instruments from its distributor in China. The
instruments will be used by China for security applications.
Electronic Sensor Technology has approximately 80 instruments in China, most of
which are employed in the detection of pollutants in rivers and lakes and
cleanup efforts.
The zNose units are being used by the Department of Public Security in Beijing
for the detection of illegal drugs. The effectiveness of the zNose in this
application further underscores the versatility of the instrument.
"We expect continued growth from these expanding markets for the zNose.
Additionally, our experience in China demonstrates that the zNose is a versatile
instrument with operating capabilities in challenging environments," states
Teong Lim, Chairman and CEO.

----------- -----------------------------------------------------------------

It is not a done deal. The board votes on it on June 25th. We can have an impact if we try. Howe has to go! This guy has done zero since he has been the CEO. No PR's to speak of, and there was news to put out. We did not hear of all the units sold. Why is that? Maybe the CEO didn't think it was important enough to keep the investors informed. Not a good idea. The SEC will be informed. Now he wants to do a reverse split. This guy has destroyed the shareholders, and has to be fired. I believe he has a preformance claus in his contract, which he has not lived up to. This is the last straw with him.
Folks the company is voting on a 10 to 1 reverse split next week June 25th. We have to stop this. We all need to email the people on the BOD to vote against it. Our not so illustrious CEO Barry Howe has proposed this action. Now if we vote on anything, Howe needs to go. The stock has gone down since his arrival. The company has raised it's sales prices a lot. Not a good business move with products that aren't selling all that great to begin with. Probably another Howe bad move. It seems that Howe could care less about the shareholders. He has never been shareholder friendly ever. The bottom line is that Howe needs to go! No reverse split.

Hello fellow shareholders. I think that the earthquake slowed things up in China. A national disaster. However, I still believe strongly that Barry Howe must go. Although Ed Staples sold about 3.6 million shares last August and September, Barry hasn't promoted at all! He is not shareholder friendly. In fact his whole attitude towards the shareholders is horrible. Teong is a hard working man, and Barry should try and be more like him. If Howe would resign the company would save his $15,000 a month salary.
Common sense is something that Barry doesn't have at all. You see the stock is free falling, and you do nothing? What kind of a CEO would do that? Does he think investors would magically buy the stock on no news at all? Is the man a retard? I think so! Does he have a performance clause in his contract? He hasn't performed, except badly. IMHO! I guess he doesn't believe that staying in the news is important. I wish that he was never hired in the first place. Penny stocks have to stay in the news more than not. He has been at EST almost a year, and what has he accomplished? Please tell me if you know anything.
However, I still believe that the stock will be a success. Only because Mr. Lim is at the helm of the BOD! Maybe Barry is good with paperwork? I would just hire a good SEC attorney to do the filings, and get rid of Howe in a New York second! I am tempted to purchase some more shares at these levels. The MM's appear to be holding the PPS down. My wife would kill me if she knew.

Time for Management change!!! 31-Mar-08 07:56 pm
Folks,
It is time for Management change, if you expect to make any Money from holding Long positions of ESNR !
For the past time that Barry Howe(CEO) has been in office, all he has accomplished is to Burn Money at the rate of approx $200,000.00 per month and take home his own Fat pay check !!!!!!
And Frank Zuhde the director of marketing and sales needs to "Go" also !!
These two men have Cost the company a Great amount of Money, because neither of them has formulated and or enacted a marketing plan to Sell any of the products ESNR has in "ANY" mass market channels !
They have both been chasing rabbits down every rabbit Hole they have fell into !
Still today neither of them has gotten the 1st Single unit installed in "ANY" commercial building in the HVAC system, anywhere in this entire world !
Unless the company can get it's head out of these Rabbit Holes and Learn to Focus on one Product to begin to Mass market, the company will continue to Burn thru the Money the new investor has come up with and in another year your investement , still won't buy your Dinner !
Teong C Lim, the man Responsible for getting this New Money together is the "Only" reason this company is not going Bankrupt today !
Teong C. Lim needs people who have a Vision and can accomplish Mass Marketing and are willing to work with him, not against him as Barry Howe has done since being CEO !
If you did not know it, the 7 Million Dollar boys, who have caused this problem to come about and Drive the stock price down, were responsible for putting Barry Howe in as CEO and Causing the stock price to fall as it has.
If you want this stock price to go up, then it is Time to Kick Barry Howe and Frank Zuhde out and bring in someone who will work with Teong Lim !
To accomplish this task, just e-mail James Frey who is the present chairman of the Board of Directors and tell him these two fellows needs to go out the door .
His e-mail is JimF233@GMAIL.com
Send him an e-mail and express your wish for the company to get Different folks who will work with Teong Lim and get rid of Barry Howe and Frank Zuhde. Rating :

The CEO must start to promote ESNR! His silence is causing stagnation. I am glad that huge blocks are being purchased, of course. Yet I am saddened by a CEO that is so silent. They need a PR department, or pay a PR company to promote ESNR. The stock is worth a lot more than 6 cents. World wide sales, and many many applications.
The stock price also hasn't been rising either! Thanks to a no promo CEO. This guy needs to remember he has shareholders. I am sorry we ever got him. I wish Teong was still running the company. Just my humble opinion until Howe shows us something. If ever? You don't know how bad I want Barry Howe to be successful!
Wishing and waiting for a company that has really good products, sales, and a CEO that will not push.
So what happened with this contract with China? As usual, no follow up PR's. Barry Howe needs to realize he has duties to the shareholders!

the closing. $2.0 million will be in the form of a new 9% convertible debenture.
The debenture is convertible into common stock at a 20% premium to the common
stock purchase price.
The agreement with the existing debenture holders calls for a payment of $3.5
million plus approximately 10,000,000 shares of common stock in full
satisfaction of the debentures. The debenture holders have also agreed to the
cancelation of one-half of the 12.2 million of warrants exercisable at $0.43 per
share.
The company expects these transactions to close in approximately one month. Upon
completion of the transactions, the new investor will own between 39 and 44% of
the company's common stock, depending upon the closing price. The current
debenture holders will own approximately 13% of the company's common stock. Both
of these agreements will be included in a current report on Form 8-K to be filed
with the SEC.

EST Receives 2 Orders for zNose(R) from Universities
NEWBURY PARK, Calif., Feb 25, 2008 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Electronic Sensor Technology (EST) (OTCBB: ESNR), a leading provider of innovative homeland security and environmental solutions, announced that it has received orders from two different universities for use in plant biology research projects.
The one university will use the zNose(R) in the Peruvian Rain Forest to better understand the chemical and biochemical processes in the rhizosphere, which is the area surrounding plant roots and includes other plants, microbes, invertebrates and the soil. The mission of the department is to study the rhizosphere in order to develop new antibiotics, anticancer drugs, and bio-friendly pesticides.
The second university's program will use the zNose(R) to measure chemicals produced by plants in order to monitor their health. When plants are under stress from disease or pest infestations, they generate a chemical response. The zNose is able to measure this chemical response and facilitate detection of plant stress before it becomes visible to the eye. This will allow timely remediation efforts to take place in order to minimize crop damage.
"These orders demonstrate the versatility and utility of the zNose(R)," stated Frank Zuhde, Director of Marketing and Sales. "The zNose(R) was selected by these distinguished research organizations for its sensitivity, speed and portability."

I don't know, but I like it. I hope we get some news on the financing soon. Although they will still be in business. I think this company has a great future. Who ever was buying today thinks so also.
It would be a heck of a lot smarter to put PR's out on a Monday instead of a Friday. Let's see what next week brings.
Electronic Sensor Technology Awarded Security Order and Provides Business Update
Friday, February 8, 8:30 am ET
NEWBURY PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Electronic Sensor Technology (EST) (OTCBB:ESNR - News), a leading provider of innovative homeland security and environmental solutions, announced that it has been awarded an order for 4 zNose® Model 4300’s to be used for security applications in the Middle East. The order was placed through our distributor in Kuwait, Petroleum Services Company W.L.L.
Barry S. Howe, President and CEO stated “This order is another example that the zNose® is an excellent tool for explosive detection. The zNose® not only detects traditional explosives but also many other types, including liquid explosives, the type used by the infamous “shoe bomber”. Mr. Howe added, “This order brings our 2008 year to date orders to just over $400,000, as compared to revenues for the entire first quarter of 2007 of $477,000. The company expects to report revenues for all of 2007 of $2,200,000, approximately at the same level as 2006. We are off to a good start in 2008 and have developed several prospects in the security markets that have the potential to generate substantial volume of business later in the year. In addition, we continue to make progress in increasing our sales into the food, flavors and fragrance markets, an area that the zNose® is perfectly suited to.”
“However, as we stated in our 2007 3rd Quarter 10-Q, the company’s cash balance is not expected to be adequate to fund operations beyond the first quarter of 2008. The company is in discussions with potential investors to provide additional capital and is hopeful that such discussions will be successful and a new capital investment will be concluded before the end of the first quarter of 2008. As noted our current report on form 8-K filed on December 28, 2007, the company’s debenture holders postponed the first principal payment, originally due January 1, 2008, for three months while the company is working with the potential investors.”

In my opinion, I agree wwith the poster on Yahoo. Who is totally correct about the CEO's lack of communication skills.
(EST Announces Agreement with the Convertible Debenture Holders)
NEWBURY PARK, Calif., Dec 28, 2007 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Electronic Sensor
Technology (OTCBB:ESNR), a leading manufacturer of ultra-fast vapor analyzers,
announced that they have signed an agreement with the convertible debenture
holders which postpones the first principal payment until April 1, 2008.
Barry S. Howe, President and CEO, stated: "This change in the repayment schedule
of the convertible debentures will provide the company with needed relief as we
continue to pursue opportunities to raise additional capital."

It looks as though we are the only ones posting here. I think we should keep posting here. I read the Yahoo board also. This stock is going to be a huge hit! I think ESNR is right on the verge of lining things up. Like financing and orders for a product that works a 100%!
Here is the email address of the person who is selling of his shares at the lowest market order prices. This guy is really only hurting us shareholders. Tell him what you think of him! As he is not really hurting EST, but the shareholders. I hope he is almost out of shares?
staples@QASolutioninc.com
Replacing the old distributors in Europe is a fantastic move by Barry Howe. Brechbuler AG has a very succesfull history. I know that they will move products. The question how many units will they sell? It appears that EST is getting it's ducks all in a row. I expect next year to be very succesful.
Let us not forget the agreement for 55 units from China. That would estimate at about $2,000,000's. That is a great start to the new year. The zNose is a wonderful product! It works a 100% of the time, and has I think 700 or so signatures. It can be programmed to add new signatures to suit specific needs. I hope we appear on CSI Miami again this TV season. If Mr. Howe would just be more forthcoming with PR's.
I agree with both of you a 100%. If only the company would start putting out some type of PR's. Follow up stories with companies that have purchased the z-Nose for example. The 55 units proposed to be sold in China is worth around 1.6 million dollars. I also believe that good things are happening at EST California. New distributors in Europe, didn't sign on, not to sell products.
If it wasn't for that disgruntled Ed Staples selling of over 3 million shares the PPs would be in the 20 cent range at least. I expect this stock to blossum in 2008.

USDA Selects zNose(R) from Electronic Sensor Technology in Experimenting the Detection of Contraband Food Products in Incoming International Mail and at Ports of Entry
Electronic Sensor Technology (OTCBB:ESNR), a leading manufacturer of ultra-fast vapor analyzers, announced today that its zNose® has been selected by US Department of Agriculture (USDA) for evaluation of its suitability for use to detect contraband meat products and vegetation. Presently, the USDA randomly inspects incoming packages and mail at ports of entry for contraband food products. The zNose will enable the USDA to be more comprehensive in its inspection as well as improving the efficiency of the process.
The zNose® is the first electronic nose, based on ultra-fast gas chromatography, whose results have been validated by independent laboratories, including the Environmental Protection Agency and the White House Office of National Drug Control. The zNose contains a library of retention time indices for over 700 volatile organics which enables it to easily identify specific volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
