China Botanic Pharmaceutical, Inc. (CBP) to be Granted New Invention Patent in China

China Botanic Pharmaceutical recently announced that the State Intellectual Property Office of the People’s Republic of China (SIPO) will be granting the company a new invention patent on its comprehensive method to enhance the medicinal value of Schisandra, a key component in its pharmaceutical products. The company expects to receive the patent certificate by October 2012.

China Botanic filed Patent Application No: 201010119861.3 in February 2010, which was followed by a two-year comprehensive review conducted by the SIPO. Upon grant of the new patent, the company anticipates securing market exclusivity for a period of 20 years.

Research in China suggests that Schisandra is a wild plant with significant medical and health benefits. Schisandra has been found to prevent liver damage and is an effective sedative for treating insomnia and central nervous system depression. China Botanic’s comprehensive method enables it to obtain a number of compounds out of Schisandra, including lignin, polysaccharides, vitamins, and organic acids.

China Botanic’s Chairman and CEO, Mr. Shaoming Li, remarked, “Schisandra is one of the important components for our anti-depression and nervous system regulating products. We look forward to receiving the new patent in October, which will further support our research and development of Schisandra, development of Schisandra-based new medicines and strengthen our ability to leverage the potential of Schisandra. In addition, our continued success in obtaining new patents and our commitment to invest into research, development and talent defines our long-term growth strategy. We believe that in the foreseeable future, our new patent will favorably contribute to our business performance.”
