"Adding to its portfolio of 19 international patent applications filed encompassing 44 countries , Lexaria Bioscience Corp. ( CSE : LXX ) ( OTCQB : LXRP ) earlier this week announced that it has received from the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") a new Notice of Allowance that applies to the delivery of all applied-for active pharmacological ingredients ("APIs"). As was the case with Lexaria's existing non-psychoactive cannabinoid patent, the company expects formal patent issuance within three to four months, which is expected to provide protection until at least 2035.

"The issuance of the patent will enable Lexaria to accelerate its technology out-licensing activities in several key markets. The irony is that this R&D that originated in the cannabis is now finding use in delivery of NSAIDs, vitamins and even nicotine."
