Abstract

The Federal Circuit Court's decision in this case alters the bargain struck by Congress between the public and inventors by allowing the inventors of genetically engineered cell lines to withhold the exact nature of the cells from the public. Established law and policy have heretofore required patent applicants whose inventions involve new or unique biological material to place samples of their cells in public culture depositories.
