Goats Make Drugs, World Doesn't Change

Post by MoxDiodsDiofs »

Goats can now make medicine in their milk. But they can't make money...yet.

Yesterday the Food and Drug Administration approved Atryn, from GTC Biotherapeutics, a medicine to treat a hereditary deficiency of the clot-preventing chemical antithrombin. It will be the first medicine made in transgenic animals to be sold. Investors shrugged. Shares in the tiny company are worth only 75 cents and the stock market puts the company's value at a measly $75 million
