Abstract From the Canadian patent

A nucleotide sequence is provided for the VR-2332 virus which is capable of , causing Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome. The nucleotide sequence includes protein coding regions that are inserted into recombinant vectors for the host expression of viral proteins according to a variety of vaccination techniques. Diagnostic assays utilize fragmentary sequences or oligonucleotides to selectively identify the VR-2332 nucleic acids by hybridization or PCR amplification reactions that distinguish VR-2332 nucleotide sequences from other PRRS-causative viruses which are immunologically distinct from VR-2332.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 4, 1995 and granted July 3, 2012. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 4, 2015.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 4, 2017.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
