Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Electronically addressable microchips having covalently bound permeation layers and methods of making such covalently bonded permeation layers to microchips are provided. The covalent bonding is derived from combining the use of electrodes with silane derivatives. Such chemistry provides the ability to apply an electronic bias to the electrodes of the microchip while preventing permeation layer delaminating from the electrode surface.

Why it's free to use
- Filed October 31, 2000. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended October 31, 2020.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 31, 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.
