I think I'll chomp on a few carrots while waiting for an answer to that one. :)

Caveat emptor re IBPM! The company’s claims remind me of the bankrupt LSBC (#msg-8990370, #msg-9008295). The similarity between the two companies is probably not a coincidence: Robert L. Erwin, president of IBPM, was the founder of LBSC and chief pumper of that company’s failed attempt to make drugs from transgenic plants.

it is more versatile because it can be used for vaccines where you need to react quickly. A trangenic product could not do that.

If they get a bad batch they can throw it out and infiltrate more plants. That wouldn't be as simple for Protalix.

It sounds complicated but the process is actually very simple
