ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGE ISSUES INITIAL DETERMINATION IN BIO-LAYER INTERFEROMETERS INVESTIGATION

PALO ALTO, Calif., July 6, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- An Administrative Law Judge at the United States International Trade Commission (USITC) has announced the termination of the Section 337 investigation involving certain biolayer interferometers and components. In October 2022, Sartorius BioAnalytical Instruments, Inc. lodged a complaint with the USITC against Gator Bio, Inc., alleging the infringement of four US patents.

After conducting a thorough analysis, the presiding ALJ determined that the asserted claims of one of patents are invalid due to indefiniteness. Soon after, Sartorius voluntarily moved to terminate the remaining three patents from the investigation. On June 30, 2023, the ALJ issued an order terminating the investigation in its entirety.

Gator Bio holds a deep regard for intellectual property and firmly asserts that our next generation biolayer interferometry technology does not infringe on the intellectual property owned by other entities. We remain committed to continued innovation and the development of a robust product portfolio, while vigorously defending our intellectual property against any future challenges. Our goal is to create innovative products that enhance the productivity of biotherapeutics discovery and development.
