PCR Licensing, Patents & Trademarks INFORMATION ON APPLIED BIOSYSTEMS LICENSES Applied Biosystems Real-Time PCR Licensing Programs Applied Biosystems is proud of its historical role in developing basic PCR. As the exclusive licensor of real-time PCR and certain PCR improvement patents, Applied Biosystems continues to provide access to these newer technologies in a variety of ways. End user customers can obtain research rights by purchasing reagents (for example, DNA polymerase or master mix) bearing label license rights from Applied Biosystems and other licensed suppliers. Specific commercial service rights may also be granted with application kits available from some of these companies. For companies that wish to obtain rights to manufacture and sell enzymes, application kits (in multiple fields), and/or probes conveying such label license rights, Applied Biosystems has established three worldwide licensing programs:
Service and in-process testing laboratories that home-brew their kits can obtain access to the Applied Biosystems process rights they need through Applied Biosystems' Commercial Services License and Internal Quality Assurance/Control License. Available fields include contract research, forensic and human identity testing, animal identity and breeding, environmental, agricultural, food, and GMO testing, and internal quality control testing.
