But for products in nature, practically speaking, the approach is very different at the EPO. Much of biotech practice, and the validity of the biotech patents that are granted, relies on the fact that nature is not disclosed (or prior art) in any analysed or characterised
02:07 schestowitz[TR]; way. For example the individual substances in the leaf are not disclosed.<br /><br />This referral is interesting because it concerns disclosure of a polymer and polymers are very difficult to fully analyse and replicate exactly, but you can often come pretty close to replicating something similar. So essentially we need a polymer-specific decision to solve the legal issue here which takes into account the technical limitations (an
02:07 schestowitz[TR]; d vagueness) inherent in the art"

17:07 schestowitz; "The cat says:<br />As such, it would appear that any amended claims submitted during opposition that include limitations not present in the granted claims should always be accompanied by a corresponding amended description. <br /><br />Well, that remains to be seen. Boards clearly diverge on this issue. So if you end up with a Board who considers the provisions of the Office and the Guidelines on extensive redaction of the description
17:07 schestowitz; that has been set up as a doctrine of people who have written the guidelines based on a mutilation of Article 84 a heap of nonsense - there are such Boards, as we have seen -, post-grant claim amendments may not require amendments of the description.<br /><br />When will there finally be a Technical Board of Appeal that has the courage to refer this issue on divergence of case law to the Enlarged Board of Appeal?"
