Labonden, I wish I bought all my shares at $2.00. But I did not. Anyway on page 16 of annual report,it states,

"Enhancins: Restoring the Effectiveness of Traditional Antibiotics

One component of our research is focused on enhancins. We have completed numerous in vitro studies showing that enhancins improve the performance of existing antibiotics. This past year, researchers from Micrologix presented three papers at the Annual Interscience Conference on Agents and Chemotherapy, a leading world conference on antibiotics, showing the ability of four Enhancin peptides to to restore the antibioticial activity of eight antibiotics against clinical isolates of multidrug-resistant bacteria. These organisms included methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant Entercoccus (VRE) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We are currently evaluating Enhancins for use in important systyemic disease targets. Our Enhancins represent a significant partnering opportunity for pharmaceutical companies seeking to extend the life of their patents and or restore the effectiveness of their antibiotics against drug-resistant organisms."

MBI is still working on enhancins. The opportunity for MBI 226 is a fast way to get a drug on the market and a cash flow. Topical drugs are a lot faster to take through trails. Enhancins will come and they will be worth a lot of money to MBI and their share holders. Hang on the best is yet to come.
