Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Disclosed herein are cultures of undifferentiated avian primordial germ cells/blastodermal cells. The cultures are capable of maintaining their undifferentiated characteristic and also their capability of expressing the EMA-1 epitope for extended periods when cultured in the presence of an isolate from avian navel (e.g. turkey navel extract). Methods of culturing such cultures using avian navel extracts, and culture media containing avian navel extract are also disclosed. Recombinant birds derived from these cultures are also disclosed. These cultures can be frozen for long-term preservation of germ line genomes.

Why it's free to use
- Filed June 15, 2000. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended June 15, 2020.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by June 15, 2022.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
