New European Patent Full-Text Database EPFULL

The patent full-text EPFULL for patent applications from the European Patent Organisation has been renewed with data from the provider LexisNexis Univentio.

New search options promise additional relevant hits.

Full-text is now available for the complete file since 1978.

New features are the numeric property search, the CPC classification codes including combination sets, key terms to support efficient full-text searching and results evaluation, standardized and normalized patent assignee names, and a separate update date for the full-text.

Also, bibliographic information has been augmented with related application information, and original patent, application and priority numbers.

More details are available with HELP KEY, HELP NPS, HELP CPC, HELP PAN in the database, in the new database summary sheet, and on a flyer at https://www.stn-international.com/en/customersupport/epfull-enhancements-april-2021
