DNA Sequence Patent Search and Analysis:

Metabiomics™ provides advanced DNA patent analysis and consulting services based on our new patent search engine and knowledgebase. Patomics Knowledgebase (“PKB”) provides and important new tool for the analysis of the IP landscape of genomics including all fields of human and microbiological genomics. It enables a competitive advantage over existing patent databases by integrating bioinformatics tools (sequence and pathway analysis) with a deep analysis of the relationship between patent claims and the corresponding biological sequences. It uses unique bioinformatics features that make Patomics a state-of-the-art tool for IP and policy analysts who want to study gene patents, but who do not have the knowledge or resources to do sequence searching. Furthermore, by providing an integrated platform for exploring the IP landscape of diseases and genes, Patomics represents an enabling technology that opens the door to further discoveries concerning the relationships between gene patents and biomedical research.

Patents confer exclusive rights, giving patent owners the right to exclude others from making, selling, or using the subject matter claimed in the patent as the invention. For this reason, patents are important asset for businesses seeking to exploit their discoveries, gain market power, and achieve commercial success. In the biotechnology industry, patents are a key force in keeping and maintaining market dominance. The Amgen patents covering the erythropoietin gene and protein accounted for sales of over 12 billion dollars in the United States, alone (Rader 2007). Knowledge of patent rights is a significant factor in the decision-making process of developing a new commercial product or service and provides a roadmap for licensing or securing the necessary intellectual property rights needed to pursue the research and commercialization of new technology.

Metabiomics will perform a patent search or in-depth case study of a specified genomics field using our proprietary Patomics Knowledgebase tools and expertise in the field. This may include using a panel of experts in the field to review the pertinent patent and literature to provide in-depth understanding, evaluation, and/or forecasting of technology developments and DNA sequencing patterns in the field of interest to our customers. We will provide a consultation, statement of work, and quotation for services specifically to meet your needs. '
