I definitely see the possibility of one or both ending up in Aogiri's hands as an experiment. We already know that Kanou wants to do fresh experiments, and the Kakuhous he plans to use for performing the surgeries.

(There's also, as mentioned above, the fact we were already told that the CCG is preparing to produce their second batch of Quinx.)

It seems that Kuramoto is out of the woods for now, at least in terms of having received emergency treatment. So the question merely becomes whether Noro will ignore him or not, since he is completely out of the fight and probably off in a corner unable to draw attention to himself.

On the other hand, I think the one most at risk would be Takeomi. Not only is he still fighting and possibly wounded in the attack, there's another factor to consider.

Iwao Kuroiwa mortally wounded Eto.

Takeomi's father is the man that ended Eto's original rampage and nearly killed her. He is a famous and beloved Investigator, one that has established himself through multiple battles with the Owls. Should Eto learn who Takeomi is, I don't think she would be able to resist the irony and sweet revenge of doing something horrible to the son of the man that nearly killed her. Plus, Eto loves to destroy families.

I know some people feel that Kaneki/Sasaki is less unique because of other half-Ghouls in the series, though I think he remains unique among the cast. The other half-Ghouls in the series (other than Am-....er...Mr. Robed Giant) really don't fit into the narrative of being between the worlds, since they are firmly on one side or the other. The Quinx are very much Human, and reject their Ghoul half while not trying to understand the viewpoint of Ghouls. On the other side, the twins and Takizawa have completely abandoned their humanity and live as Ghouls.

Beyond that, we already know that the creation of half-Ghouls is part of Dr. Kanou's evil plan. So we know that there being more than just Kaneki and Eto is part of some much larger goal by the villains of the series.
