I'm certainly not an expert, but I did take a microbiology class in college. So I can see the potential that U.S. microbics products have.
I really haven't researched this company recently, but my main concern is with the financial situation of the company, I realize it is improving, and the number of outstanding shares reveals a relatively small market cap right now; however, I'm not sure how innovative their products are compared to competitors.
The greatest profit potential that I see U.S. M. has is through licensing their technology rather than manufacturing. And all the projects they have going with Bio-Raptor and the like, I see as primarily something that will introduce the effectiveness of their bugs to buyers and potential licensees; but still, they appear to have more cash burn to go through before they can become profitable. I might just continue to stand on the sidelines of this company until I see more.

A follow-up to your previous news you posted, this one from the Environmental Defense Fund:

It seems that the benefits of integrating friendly bacteria in agriculture increase competitive inhibition, which then reduces disease and the need for, such as in animal use, antibiotics; just from some things that I have read. Here is a word about the dangers of antibiotic use as in the U.S. :
