Mara Files Inter Partes Review (IPR) Petition in the U.S. Challenging Validity of DSM Patent No. 10,392,578: Extraction of Lipid from Cells and Products Therefrom
18.7.2023 15:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
Mara Renewables Corporation, and its manufacturing partner Algal Omega-3 (AO3), announced today they have filed an IPR in the United States on DSM Patent No. 10,392,578, titled Extraction of Lipid from Cells and Products Therefrom, asserting that the patent is not valid, based upon its obviousness. According to the filing, prior art discloses each of the elements of the challenged claims.
“Mara does not believe that all DSM patents meet the high standard required by the patent office. Through the actions brought on by DSM, we have reviewed the strength of DSM's IP and recognized that there are several patents that, in our view, should not have been granted. It is our intent to challenge those patents that we believe don't meet the required standards. We look forward to the review of our petition on this patent,” said Mark Scaife, Managing Director.
