Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
A dry analytical element is disclosed which can be used to sensitively and rapidly detect and quantitate protein. The assays are carried out using a dye that reacts with protein and molybdate ion to produce a measurable change in the spectral absorption of the dye. Also disclosed are polymers which stabilize and enhance the accuracy of the assay, and compounds which reduce interference by bicarbonate.

Why it's free to use
- Filed April 16, 1999. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended April 16, 2019.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by April 16, 2021.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
