To the two already registered "MetMapper" trademarks, the figurative trademark METABOLITE MAPPER has been newly added, protecting the full name of the software tool developed at BC, with which a database of more than 2500 metabolites is connected. This platform facilitates the characterization and identification of natural substances and is designed to automatically process data from analytical files generated by mass spectrometers. This multi-user platform is intended for analytical and data services, so the widest possible protection of its designation and basically the only possibility of intellectual property protection of software in the Czech Republic is in place here. We believe that the newly registered trademark will help colleagues from the Laboratory of Analytical Biochemistry and Metabolomics not only to protect, but also to promote their R&D results when applied in practice.
