DOLPHIN, the Database of All Pharmaceutical Inventions contains all
patents with relevance to the pharmaceutical industry. It covers not only
therapeutic patents, but also patents in areas such as packaging, drug delivery
devices, and biotechnology inventions with no direct therapeutic
application.
Moreover, DOLPHIN consolidates the family and legal status
information from INPADOC, hence it contains family information for 71 countries
and legal status information for 28 countries, with information dating back as
far as 1968.
