    Has it been done before? Optimize your Patent Search using Patent Scraping Technology.

    Since the US patent office opened in 1790, inventors across the United States have been submitti
    According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product
    ng all sorts of great products and half-baked ideas to their database. Nowadays, many individuals get ideas for great products only to have the patent office do a patent search and tell them that thei
    ; or drug, device, and biological product and fixed dose combination would include two or more combinations of drug.

    Examples of combination products may in
    ideas have already been patented by someone else! Herin lies a question: How do I perform a patent search to find out if my invention has already been patented before I invest time and money into dev
    lude drug-coated devices, drugs packaged with delivery devices in medical kits, and drugs and devices packaged separately but intended to be used together.

    loping it?

    The US patent office patent search database is available to anyone with internet access.

    Perfor
    here is enormous increase in the number of combination products entering the market in the recent years. Combination products have proven advantages but fixe
    ing a patent search with the patent searching tools on the US Patent office webpage can prove to be a very time consuming process. For example, patent searching the database for "dog" and "food" yield

    Because patent searches take such a long time, many companies a

    Patent scraping is the process of writing computer automat

    To put a real-world face on this, let us consider the pharmaceutical industry. Many different companies are competing for the patent on the next big drug. It has b

    As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel
    come an indispensible tactic of the industry for one company to perform patent searches for what patents the other companies are applying for, thus learning in which direction the research and d

    Professional from academic institutions, pharmaceutical industries, health care indust

    become very costly to maintain a team of researchers dedicated to only performing patent searches all day. Patent scraping technology is the means for figuring out what ideas and technologies are co

    As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de

    While some companies choose to hir

    Companies that provide selfless information through particip
