| Description | IP Pragmatics (London) gave us a marketing report of possible pathways to commercialise this technology. Report indicates that there are significant opportunities, however the report revealed that a similar patent had previously been filed by a rival organisation. This means that the patent filed for this work by ISIS, University of Oxford is unlikely to proceed. |
| Exploitation Route | Unlikely due to patent application withdrawal by ISIS, University of Oxford. This was done because a similar patent had previously been filed by another organisation. |
