Book Description
Since the discovery of recombinant DNA technology in the early 1970s, biotechnology has become an essential tool for many researchers and industries. The potential of biotechnology has spurred the creative genius of inventors seeking to improve the Nation's health, food supply, and environment. In 1980, the Supreme Court ruled that a living micro-organism could be patented. Subsequently, the U. S. Patent and Trademark Office held that certain types of plant and animal life constituted patentable subject matter. This special report, prepared by the Office of Technology Assessment of the United States Congress under, reviews U. S. patent law as it relates to the patentability of micro-organisms, cells, plants, and animals; as well as specific areas of concern, including deposit requirements and international considerations. The report includes a range of options for congressional action related to the patenting of animals, intellectual property protection for plants, and enablement of patents involving biological material.

Book Description
The advent of modern biotechnology has seen the proliferation of the use of life forms for the creation of products. In tandem with this development, patent over life forms have grown proportionately as the biotechnology industry seeks to protect its investment. This has spawned a debate about the propriety of patenting life forms. This book explores the issues surrounding such patenting. There is a need to identify the reasons for the growth of such patenting, the issues raised, the concerns dealing with such patenting and the way in which countries, especially leading patent countries have sought to resolve the competing views.
