The golden goats story on page D1 of today's Globe: boston.com and a nice picture of the goats from the main Business page: boston.com [links will expire] Ballpark figures on production costs from Dr. Sandra Lehrman, president of Genzyme Transgenics: "If you look at the capital needed to make 100 kilograms per year of a pharmaceutical the traditional way with bricks, mortar, bio-reactors, and stainless steel, initial production will cost between $20 million and $70 million. With transgenic goats, the costs are between $2 million and $5 million to produce the same amount with probably 35 goats, each producing 5 to 10 grams of the protein per liter of milk. It's a great business."
