twa,

Too many people listen to what the Ceo says, and doesn't do enough D.D. to make a sound decision! I believe CRTG is developing a patentable CHS, and that anyone who sells it without an agreement by the Patent holder, (which we don't have by the way,) may have an infringement problem later on?

CHS is not patentable, however the synthesis process to produce CHS is. CRTG has a provisional patent that is now a utility patent.

"Converting a Provisional Patent into a Utility Patent
If you have a provisional patent, it doesn't automatically turn into a utility patent at some point. Instead, you must file a utility patent application within a year of the filing date of the provisional patent application in order to receive the full protection that a utility patent provides. To convert a provisional patent into a utility patent, you must reference the provisional patent, which has been holding a place for your eventual utility patent application."

Here is the definition of a Provisional Patent:

"The Provisional Patent
Unlike a utility patent, a provisional patent does not get reviewed by the USPTO, although it also is submitted there. The USPTO explains the provisional patent application process on its website.

This type of patent essentially holds a place for the invention until the inventor is ready to apply for a utility patent. The subsequent utility patent application must be filed within a year. Within that time, the inventor can work on conducting more research into the invention or potential market and/or refining their product or process. Whether it's the right time to file for a provisional patent depends on your specific situation, including your invention's readiness for market and your own cash flow."

Here is the definition of a Utility Patent:

"The Utility Patent
A utility patent is the type of protection most people think of when they hear the word "patent." That is, when you file a utility patent application, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) reviews the information you've provided to determine whether to grant the patent. The link below is the source of the Patent definitions.

Once granted, a utility patent gives the inventor the exclusive rights to make, use, sell, and import an invention during a specific time period, which is usually 20 years. Once a patent expires, others are free to use the invention."

The bold text in the Utility Patent definition directly contradicts the narrative in your quoted statement above.
