OppKnock: "No one has asked where he got those samples from. Could it be a potential licensee that is alrady into the animal pharmaceutical industry? Is it another diagnostic company? I think this should be a good topic for discussion."

How's this for a discussion topic:
Inverness owns Biosite.
Biosite is were RECAF samples were sent.
Biocurex annouces a canine version of RECAF
