How much is horseshoe crab blood worth per quart as of today (August 14, 2008)????

2 July 2009 Comments

In the 1970’s, horseshoe crab blood was worth $15,000 per quart for use in the biomedical industry. That was then. This is now. I am figuring it is worth more per quart now what with inflation and everything?

Please Help!!!

    Apparently still $15,000 per quart. It was probably kept the same due to other technologies decreasing demand.
