Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Soap compositions prepared by using saponified laurate canola oils (LC-oils); these oils resemble conventional canola oil except LC-oils contain lauric acid levels and myristic acid levels in weight percents greater than the weight percents of these fatty acids found in conventional canola oil. The LC-oils are preferably produced in vivo by genetically engineered plants. Such plants produce seeds that preferentially accumulate oils with 12:0 fatty acids. The LC-oils are used as replacement or substitution oils for coconut oils in soap manufacture. The obtained soap compositions exhibit improved foaming and mildness characteristics as compared to soaps produced with coconut oil.

Why it's free to use
- Filed January 17, 1997 and granted October 9, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended January 17, 2017.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by January 17, 2019.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
