I believe that the University of Notre Dame holds the patent and KBLB "has an option for a global exclusive license to use the technology commercially"
So basically, Notre Dame did all of the hard work and KBLB is trying to use their hard work to make money. The problem is that KBLB hasn't done much of anything to further the technology in 10 years.
I believe that because silk is a known product that a patent can not be gained on it. They could only patent a process to create it. I could be wrong. If I am correct they also can't patent the process because obviously the product is not complete since they are making changes to it still.
If they finalize DS the process would be known and they could actually file for a patent assuming that Fraser patented process is no longer a portion of the process.
I could be wrong but it's just a logical assumption.
