Rick,

Two points here. 1) I don't think you'll see anymore empoyee cut backs. After all, I think there was only a secretary and Tachovsky left when Biomar stepped in. Not much room for down sizing.

2) They apparently intent to market the herbs INTACT. Androvir and Androcar were purified components of Andorgraphis P. Since the whole herb is not a purified "pharmaceutical" per se, they intend to side skirt the FDA ruling by selling the crude substance. It's a strategy that may work from an FDA approval viewpoint but I doubt the end product will have the same medical benefit as the purified components would have. Hence, a slim market potential IMHO.
