After the U.S. anthrax attack in October 2001, at the urging of American friends, Goosen approached the U.S. Department of Defense with an offer of "open cooperation" in sharing Project Coast's extensive research in anthrax vaccines and novel antidotes known as antiserums. The Pentagon was sufficiently interested to arrange a meeting in January 2002 between Goosen and Bioport Corp., the Michigan company that produces anthrax vaccines for the military. But interest from the U.S. side evaporated quickly, to Goosen's amazement.

They were working on anthrax antitoxin.

Others, including Goosen, have acknowledged they were approached by recruiters claiming to represent foreign governments or extremist groups.

Thanks for flagging me to this article, it has quite a bit of fascinating information. On the other hand it could almost be a press release for Goosen's desire to make some big bucks on the side.
