Safeguard Your Agrochemical and Seed IP Search

When you’re developing safer, more effective crop protection programmes and new crop strains, patent protection is critical. Yet, complexity delays breakthroughs and risks IP exposure.

That’s why you need a best-in-class tool for detailed and efficient IP research.

Capabilities

Overcome Your IP Challenges With Specialised Search Tools and a Proven Partner

We understand the IP challenges you face in the agrochemical and seed industry. Our search tools tackle them with features made just for your world.

Content

Accurate IP research in crop science starts with comprehensive data. GQ-Pat's sequence database—the largest of its kind globally—is updated twice a week, ensuring agrochemical and seed researchers always work from the most current prior art landscape before committing to costly development programmes.

Search

When your development pipeline depends on IP clearance, waiting hours for search results isn't an option. Aptean GenomeQuest searches over 480 million sequences in less than five minutes—so prior art checks and freedom-to-operate assessments keep pace with your research, not the other way around.

Analysis

Aptean GenomeQuest pairs powerful search capabilities with user-friendly visualisation and analysis tools—so agrochemical and seed researchers can quickly interpret large result sets and move from raw sequence data to informed development decisions without delay.

Reporting

Agrochemical and seed development moves through multiple teams before a new innovation reaches the market. Aptean GenomeQuest gives your researchers customisable reports and a range of export options—so IP findings are communicated clearly at every stage, decisions get made faster and your development programme stays on course.
