The patent, applied for in November 2022 under application number 17991282, was granted with 14 claims. The invention relates to compounds suitable for use in mass spectrometry and associated analytical methods.
What changed
The USPTO issued Patent US12600700B2 to Roche Diagnostics Operations, Inc. covering imidazolium compounds for mass spectrometry applications and methods of mass spectrometric determination of analyte molecules. The patent names nine inventors and contains 14 allowed claims under CPC classifications G01N 33/58 and C07D 233/02.\n\nManufacturers and researchers developing mass spectrometry reagents or analytical methods involving imidazolium compounds should review this patent to assess potential infringement exposure. Companies in the pharmaceutical, diagnostic, and analytical chemistry sectors may need to evaluate whether their current or planned products fall within the scope of these claims and determine whether licensing from Roche is necessary.
What to do next
- Monitor for infringement of US12600700B2 in mass spectrometry reagent development
- Evaluate freedom-to-operate for mass spectrometry compound compositions
- Consider licensing discussions with Roche Diagnostics
