FYI: Iraq started their WMD program with seed bacterial strains from the following as well:
1) Pasteur Institute, France
2) The Oxoid Firm, England
3) Fluka Chemie AG, Switzerland
Ancillary chemical weapon-making equipment came from:
1) The Niro Atomizer Co., Denmark
2) Unidentified Company, Germany
Needless to say, the Iraqis lied to all the companies involved as to the future usage of their purchases. For example, Iraqi universities made purchases under the guise of academic work, when in fact they were paid for and used by the military.
