I think it might be fair to say that some species are susceptable to bpi where others are not. I think it might also be fair to say that the potentiation opportunities are impressive. I think it might also be fair to say that the opportunities are endless with regards to bpi construction. IE> fusions,substitutions,peptides,composite molecules, etc....... I think that only considering bpi is a mistake. Anti-endotoxin speaking, I think it might be fair to say that bpi is probably potent anti-endotoxin. I think it might also be fair to say that IF it decreases endotoxin quickly or sunstancially, it might find a use, thats is IF reduction of endotoxin is a viable treatment. Lastly, I think it might be fair to say that the properties of bpi provide it with enormous opportunities for use, whether or not it finds use remains to be proven. As usual, all disclaimers always apply to all my notes. Consider all my notes as valueless opinion.

<"In your enthusiasm to find an inconsistency in George's and my statements, how about you seem to be ignoring what I wrote. So, just for you, I broke out my crayon set to recompose:"> I don't recall ever having proclaimed my being an expert about BPI. I came to this board to learn more about BPI, both through reading past messages and asking questions about matters that were unclear to me. Your overly defensive and antagonistic message implies that you are adverse to asking key questions because you really don't want to know the answers. Your attitude is likely a contributory factor to the low number of regular posters who visit this thread.
