As for why you haven't seen any public applications, they are to date either too expensive, or results are still being kept confidential until enough data is gathered to present a scientifically sound conclusion that will stand up to extensive peer review. I imagine applications in animals is significantly different from that of human systems, hence the lack of results.
Additionally, lacking government funding, this research has to be done entirely in the private sector.
And here's the research articles that do exist:
