Abstract From the Canadian patent

Yeast cells whose DNA has been appropriately engineered to produce and to secrete lysozyme under control of a regulatable promoter are grown in the substantial absence of lysozyme synthesis and then are induced to produce and to secrete lysozyme under growth-limited conditions. This process is particularly suitable for the production of human lysozyme or mutants thereof.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed November 8, 1989 and granted November 10, 1998. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended November 8, 2009.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by November 8, 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.
