A prion model which incorporates the proteinaceous material has a variety of applications. The model has an ability to be cultured either in vivo or in vitro allowing rapid screening of potential drugs for treating animals or humans or methods of treating food products or items which may come into contact with prions such as medical or dental devices. Several treatment methods and materials have been developed using the model.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 4, 2002 and granted July 17, 2018. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 4, 2022.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 4, 2024.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
