| Cerus: An Unknown Gem That's Primed for a Boost Michael Shulman submits: Cerus (CERS) is unknown to most, but its technology and main product, the INTERCEPT System, is of importance to more people on the planet than Coca-Cola (KO), Intel (INTC) chips and perhaps Treasury bills.Intercept cleans blood platelets of almost everything, making the supply of platelets donor independent. Today Cerus and the Whittemore Peterson Institute published the results of joint research effort showing INTERCEPT inactivated the XMRV virus.

Complete results may be presented at the American Association of Blood Banks conference in October.Complete Story » seekingalpha.com |
