I was under the impression that Californium is the most expensive ELEMENT, going a couple of million per gram. Since Bacteriophages aren't "substance" I don't think they count.
I have to agree that its probably one of the man made heavy elements. But those aren't exactly on the open market for sale, either.
Be my guest, but I think we got a pretty good answer to the cocaine sales price question.
I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891
Some radiolabelled chemicals can be bloody expensive too - I would definitely think that some of the life science stuff would rank amongst the most expensive per unit mass, fact is though, you only buy miniscule masses.
I remember californium was supposed to be pretty damn expensive

Here I is. It's got something to do with fluoridation doesn't it? That's Ok you bad boy you, I already know the recall code for your bombers. It's "Peace On Earth". I'm not going to tell Mr. President though. Do you want to know why?
We're going to Doom City and we'll have some fun,
Yeah we're goin' to Doom City where it's ten to one,
Yeah we're goin' to Doom City to have some fun,
Ten girls for every boy-y-y-y-y-y!
Well I got an old mineshaft, it's an oldie but a goodie,
It may be kinda cramped but I can live there almost f'ever,
When the big one drops we're gonna make like moles,
An' while you're all dying we'll live on in holes!
[Refrain]
Right about Armageddon we'll be goin' down below,
Where the ratio of guys to girls is just a little low,
We'll be breedin' like bunnies in the underground,
And when we come back up you won't be around!
[Refrain]
When it's all over we'll come right back up to the land,
Life in our brave new world will be really really grand,
Our chicks will all dig us 'cause they'll all be mommies,
We won't have to worry about muslims or commies!

The nice folks from the University of Helsinki. Apparently they wish to attract us science-oriented Finnish high schoolers to study at their brand new biotechnology research center which recently recieved some massive funding.
Yikes! Sounds like the evil Finns are gearing up their WMD program!
I'm consitently stupid- Japher I think that opinion in the United States is decidedly different from the rest of the world because we have a free press -- by free, I mean a virgorously presented right wing point of view on the air and available to all.- Ned
like all those "predictions" that oil will run out in 25 years. Since that's been proven wrong, they switched to water so they can create more chaos and confusion.
Sloww is just another of those left-wing enviro wackos.
