The other issue I feel is very important to assess when looking donating something that may be used 
for corporate "research" is that there is a fine line between "research" and "product development".   
With confidentiality statements and other limitations on what outsiders are allowed to know about 
corporate research - it is often impossible to independently evaluate whether or not that line has 
been crossed.  Again, I have never seen a company that develops products for breastfeeding or 
human milk substitutes discuss the merits of their product development or product "research"  on 
Lactnet.
