Abstract:

The article provides a brief analysis of the legal protection of biotechnological inventions. Apart from describing the general principles of the European patent system, the author presents both the provisions of the Directive 98/44/ECof 6 July 1998 and a new Chapter VI of the Implementing Regulations to the European Patent Convention. The analyses focus on the concept of patentable biotechnological inventions, scope of protection, exceptions to patentability. Certain special issues related to human genes as patentable subject matter are alsodiscussed. The last part ofthe article deals with the question ofthe patenting ofgenetically modified plants in present practice of the European Patent Office(Transgenic plant/Novartis II case).
