We offer patent and literature databases from all over the world for answering questions related to:
- Patentability
- Prior art
- Competitive intelligence
- Legal status
- Freedom-to-operate
You can search patent data such as:
- Front page information, e.g., patent number, patent assignee, title
- Abstracts
- Full-text
- Legal status
- Patent family
- Database specific indexing, e.g., names and structures for specific or Markush structures, sequences, concepts
For more details on STN´s interface application see STNext™ - elevating the classic STN experience.
The full-text of documents for all references retrieved from STN databases can be accessed via the STN Full-Text Solution.
If you are in lack of resources or wish to outsource certain search types (e.g. chemical structure and Markush searching or biosequence searching) our Search Service will be happy to help you with their expertise in all kinds of patent, chemistry, life science, and technology searches.
