Abstract From the Canadian patent

The present invention provides a process for the activation of gene-technologically produced biologically, active proteins expressed in prokaryotes after cell digestion by solubilisation under denaturing conditions and reducing conditions and subsequent reactivation under oxidising and renaturing conditions wherein, working is carried out at a protein concentration of 1 to 1000 µg./ml. and, between the solubilisation and the reactivation, a dialysis is carried out against a buffer with a pH value of from 1 to 4 containing 4 to 8 mole/litre guanidine hydrochloride or 6 to 10 mole/ litre urea.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 13, 1989 and granted July 6, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 13, 2009.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 13, 2011.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
