There are more applications to come:
Extract:
"Veterinary Applications of AOD9604
There are quantifiable economic benefits to pig
farmers in reducing the amount of back fat on
their pigs, as the price paid to the farmer for the
carcass increases with reduced levels of back fat.

There is also a very large potential market for
treatment of obesity in domestic pets.

It is expected that AOD9604 could be
manufactured for such applications at very
low marginal cost in the form of an animal
food additive containing AOD9604 in a
genetically modified (transgenic) seed.

In the period under review, the Company
chose a technology partner, based in the US,
with expertise in transgenic seed production.
Transgenic rice lines were established and when
the plants are harvested in the next year, the
Company may have the opportunity to test
the concept in animal trials".
