Crossy, thanks for the information. As I read it, JT only sold the over-the-counter part of its drug operations, and did so in order to focus on drug development: jtnet.ad.jp

You asked if JT's effort was substantial. They partially funded development of Agouron's Viracept for HIV. They owned 50% of Xenotech, developer of Xenomouse fully human antibody technology (which now belongs to ABGX). They sold a crop technology to Dow Chem.

I don't know how much of the research was done by JT, but someone over there has made some good decisions.
