Drug delivery platform innovator Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) this morning announced that it has received a new Notice of Allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) covering “composition of matter” claims which protect the specific combination of substances that enables improved taste and the bioabsorption properties of its DehydraTECH™ technology for the delivery of cannabinoids. The newly-granted patent is a substantial addition to Lexaria’s previously granted manufacturing method of use patent. In accordance with USPTO practice, there is no opposition period between allowance and issuance. The patent application number is 15/225,802 titled, “Food and Beverage Compositions Infused With Lipophilic Active Agents and Methods of Use Thereof”. The company anticipated the formal granting of the new patent within approximately one hundred days or less. “This Notice of Allowance applies to the delivery of both psychoactive and non-psychoactive cannabinoids as lipophilic active agents formulated together with the edible fatty acids that enable the powerful bioavailability and taste enhancing properties of the DehydraTECH™ technology,” Lexaria president John Docherty stated in the news release.
