Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The invention relates to a method for immobilising lipid layers on the surfaces of solid bodies, according to which the surfaces of said solid bodies are modified in such a way that the characteristics of the lipid layers deposited thereon, in particular with regard to their diffusive capacity largely resemble those of non-immobilised lipid layers. According to the method, the surface of the solid body is first modified by means of molecules in such a way that a substantially hydrophilic surface is formed. In a second step, lipid layers, in particular, lipid bilayers are deposited on said modified surface.

Why it's free to use
- Filed September 25, 2001. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended September 25, 2021.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by September 25, 2023.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
