Hi Mike Zoom to the bottom of this excerpt from yesterday's release. Antex uses its NST platform technology to develop several types of products for infectious diseases. The first products developed included novel subunit and inactivated whole cell vaccines. AntexPharma, a wholly owned subsidiary of AntexBiologics, has discovered that NST-grown bacteria have in vitro sensitivities to antibiotics more closely related to the therapeutic indexes seen in people. Antex has developed a line of screening assays using these NST bacteria to evaluate novel antibiotics. In addition, by making novel structural analogs of identified natural chemicals, Antex has discovered ''modulators,'' compounds that inhibit the growth or virulence of these bacteria. These compounds may be useful as new types of therapeutics to treat antibiotic resistant bacteria, such as vancomycin resistant Enterococci and methicillin resistant Staphylococcus <------ I believe Staph is what kills most people in Hospitals! Am I right? Neil In my exaustion from laboring at one of my other professions ( cleaning out church basements ) I forgot in my crowing at having purchase shares at $.38 it had slipped my mind that I have purchased Antx at various prices above that over the past three years. So no need to be envious! Though sorting through 150 years of stuff with a CD boombox setting the pace can beat sitting in a pointless meeting. Is their a marke for old stain glass fragments? Anyone!
