CHROMEDX ANNOUNCES HEMOPALM TRADEMARK AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY UPDATE
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has allowed a trademark for ChroMedX Corp.'s patented HemoPalm technology, and the trademark will be officially registered when the HemoPalm
is released commercially.
The HemoPalm technology is currently covered by two issued and
one pending patent. The pending patent will be filed internationally in spring
2015, with the intent to extend the patent protection term in the United States, and to
seek patent protection at least in Europe and Asia for the extended term.
"ChroMedX continues to build on a strong foundation of
intellectual property detailing the company's novel in vitro diagnostic and
point-of-care testing systems. We are pleased to make this announcement and look
forward to the official registration of the HemoPalm trademark," said Dr.
Wayne Maddever, PEng, president and chief executive officer of ChroMedX.
Furthermore, ChroMedX has recently been assigned U.S. patent
7,807,450 which covers various aspects of the company's plasma extraction
cartridge, a novel device for the separation of plasma from whole blood at the
point of collection.
The AUF (automatic ultrafiltration) patent application was
filed internationally and earlier this year a very favourable written response
was issued by the international searching authority. Last week on behalf of
ChroMedX, the IP law firm Bereskin & Parr filed a demand for
international preliminary examination.
A list of issued and pending patents can be found on the
company's website.
We seek Safe Harbor.
