Essay from the year 2008 in the subject Law - Comparative Legal Systems, Comparative Law, grade: 1, University of Bremen, course: Seminar, language: English, abstract: Major industries relating to inventions in marine biotechnology increasingly apply for patents. Mostpatents are applied for inventions that are derived from terrestrial biotechnology. However, it isrecognized that marine biotechnology offers a high potential to yield inventions as well. Marinebiotechnology can be divided into two main areas.

Theselling of licenses provide one important way of receiving revenues for the research done for theinvention. The prospect of potential revenues provide the incentive for investment into biotechnologicalresearch and subsequent patenting of inventions arising thereof.The overall aim of this work is to illustrate the close interrelationship of science and law by usingmarine biotechnology and patents as an example.Section two provides an overview on the scientific side of marine biotechnology.
