Patent Analysis of Microecological Agents for Aquaculture and Feeding
[Purposes]The analysis of patents for microecological agents used in aquaculture provides a reference for the industrial development and technological research direction of microecological agents in aquaculture and feeding.[Methods]This article analyzes the patent applications of aquaculture and feed microecological agents from the perspective of patent analysis.and focuses on analyzing domestic and international application trends,overview of authorized patent applications in China,important appli-cants,and distribution of major technologies.[Findings]The number of patent applications and authori-zations in the field of microecological agents for aquaculture and feeding both show a trend of first in-creasing and then decreasing.The authorization rate in this field is relatively low,and the lifespan of au-thorized patents is short.The main innovative entities are enterprises,universities,and research insti-tutes.The main technologies involve water biological treatment,aquatic animal feed,and strain research.[Conclusions]China's research in the field of aquatic feed microecological agents is far ahead of other countries in the world.But the quality of patent applications needs to be improved.The research on new strains is a hot and difficult topic in this field.Universities and research institutes have strong research capabilities.In the future,cooperation between enterprises,universities,and research institutions should be strengthened,and patent operations should be strengthened to promote industrial progress and techno-logical innovation.
