Expanded Patent Dataset Available Now at cambiaIP
The cambiaIP website has long had complete text searchable patent documents in the field of agriculture. This week, the dataset is expanded to include all documents in life sciences and chemistry. The documents span the last 20-25 years and originate from the United States, Europe (granted patents only), Australia (granted patents only and from 1998), and WIPO.
Unlike most other free patent search sites that only allow text searching on the front page of a document, the cambiaIP site offers true full-text search, meaning that the entire text of the patent document can be searched. Moreover, multiple search terms can be limited by nearness, that is ANIMAL NEAR/10 DOG requires that the two search words, animal and dog, be located within 10 words of each other. This powerful feature can weed out many irrelevant patent documents.
