This.......

``Like antibodies, fluorescent 'super' MIPs can be coated onto beads or
wells for use in highly sensitive separation or assay, or for use in high throughput screening of proteins. Simpler, less
expensive and more stable immunoassays for use in diagnostic tests may be developed, as can new generations of
orally available therapeutics which act solely to rapidly absorb targeted substances in the gastrointestinal tract.''


seems like a reasonable list of expectations, to me.

>> Or a real threat to currently public companies? <<

Nah.

Tuck,

Tommysdad may have some thoughts on this. It makes since, chemically, that it would be cheaper and easier. The binding mechanism is less understood by me. If it binds more efficiently it starts to make sense. To me it parallels the development of natural rubber leading to the development of synthetic rubber.
