Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
This invention relates to the isolation of a novel putative efflux gene from Pseudomonas mendocina. The putative efflux gene is useful for probing an organism's efflux system to gain an understanding of the mechanisms of solvent tolerance. The invention further provides a Pseudomonas mendocina strain deficient in this gene. This strain is unable to grow in the presence of chloramphenicol and, compared to the wildtype strain grows slowly in the , presence of high concentrations of PHBA.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 30, 1998. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended October 30, 2018.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 30, 2020.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
