Lexaria Biosciences Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP), a biosciences company that has developed delivery technologies to improve absorption of bioactive compounds, has enhanced the ability of cannabinoid-products companies to deliver active ingredients to the body with its patent-protected technology. This technology is already being applied to the use of non-psychoactive cannabinoids, yielding a high-absorption hemp oil formula that is a source of omega and fatty acids, and patents are pending for tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other psychoactive cannabinoids along with nicotine and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. An article discussing this reads: “The patent awarded to LXRP for the delivery of all non-psychoactive cannabinoids makes Lexaria the first company in the world to achieve this accomplishment. Awarded in the U.S. and Australia, it is now pending in 44 other countries while supporting research and development on cannabinoids across the industry. The company has filed 19 patent applications in the U.S. and internationally. It also expects additional patent acceptances and issuances in 2017 and over the coming years. In fact, Lexaria has out-licensed the technology as part of its royalty business model, allowing third-party partners and distributors to profit and support their own developments. The numerous deals already signed include those in various state markets, including California, Colorado and Nevada, and a distribution agreement for CBD chewables in Japan and South Korea. Lexaria’s first royalty agreement was with a fast-growing startup, but current negotiations are with larger, more established enterprises. Lexaria is expanding its global reach and expects to continue seeing growth in business deals in broader industry sectors with more well-known consumer brands.”
