In kind return to our support to a grant application led by East Linden, the company has decided to provide the GP-TCM consortium up to 30 usernames and passwords for free access to their World Traditional Medicine Patent Database (WTMPD). The database covers all patent literature related to natural medicines issued by 22 countries and 2 international organisations since 1985. All patents, both in Chinese and English, totalling 110,000 (more than 200,000 family patents), are high-quality manually processed, deeply indexed and translated. WTMPD has several auxiliary databases, such as natural medicine database, chemical substance database, Chinese medicine formula database. Based on the above rich resources, professional searching functions are provided to facilitate the efficient utilizing of patent information, including quick search, form search, advanced search, IPC search, chemical structure search, natural medicine search, Chinese medicine formula search, as well as Chinese medicine formula similarity search have been designed. In addition, this database provide over 30 search entries and support multi-language search, synonym expansion search and cross-database search. Any GP-TCM members who are interested in this database please contact Dr. Halil Uzuner ([email protected]) for further information.
