Chemical Structure Patent Search

Chemical structure patent searches are conducted by scientists, chemistry patent attorneys, health-professionals, chemists, professionals in the pharmaceutical industry, in-house chemical lawyers and pharmaceutical attorneys.

Many chemical compounds which form subject matter of patent claims are available in the patentscope WIPO database. However, to search relevant patent results, a proper chemical structure patent search strategy should be formed. Researching accurate patent chemical compounds is a daunting task if the chemical structure patent search strategy is not in place. In this chemical structure patent article we will cover a list of checklists to be taken in consideration while performing chemistry based searches. The checklist will be helpful for chemical patent lawyers or pharmaceutical patent attorneys. Whether you are working on patent infringement suit involving chemical compounds or a patent due diligence project for an acquisition, determining the true value of granted chemical patent will be helpful in the long run.

Chemical Structure Patent Search for a Molecule.
