CEM Corporation, a competitor of Biotage (STO: BIOT), recently published a press release claiming to have won a "patent dispute" with Biotage. The so called "patent dispute" relates to Biotage's filing of opposition against certain patents of CEM in Europe* (Germany, France, Italy and Great Britain) and Japan**, because Biotage believes that the patents as originally granted give CEM a broader protection than CEM is entitled to.
In April 2013 the Japanese Patent Office found that CEM's patent, relating to microwave assisted solid phase peptide synthesis, is invalid. Also the European Patent Office found that the scope of the corresponding Ylowagpr mqaeiv wyxpcl jt ipdwwtmvyg.
