Stratagene loses another legal round, tis time against Invitrogen:

>>CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) -- Invitrogen Corp., a maker of genomics research equipment, said Thursday that an appeals court ruled in its favor in a patent infringement case brought against Stratagene Inc.

The appeal overturned a decision by a federal district court in Texas and ruled that Stratagene infringed a patent involving a process that allows bacteria to absorb foreign DNA, or become "competent."

Invitrogen said it offers 30 different types of competent cell products, which require obtaining a limited license for purchase. The company claimed that Stratagene never obtained a license for their competent cell products.

As a result, the case will go back to the district court level for continued proceedings.<<

Cheers, Tuck
