Dongwoon Anatech, European Patent for Saliva Glucose Measurement 'D-SaLife'... Opening Door to European Market

Fourth Patent Registration Following Korea, China, and Japan
Active Discussions on Entering the European Market with Global Major Pharmaceutical Companies
World's First Self-Developed Saliva Glucose Diagnostic Device

Dongwoon Anatech has opened the door to the European market for ‘D-SaLife’ by obtaining a European patent.

On the 27th, Dongwoon Anatech announced that it received notification of patent acquisition from the European Patent Office (EPO) for its self-developed world’s first saliva sugar diagnostic device, ‘D-SaLife.’ This is the fourth patent registration following Korea, Japan, and China.

With the patent registration, Dongwoon Anatech can now actively discuss the European Conformity Certification (CE certification), the integrated European standard for market entry, with major global pharmaceutical companies and promote its entry into the European market in the future. At the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) held in Stockholm, Sweden, last September, Italian leading pharmaceutical company Menarini and others showed keen interest in D-SaLife.

Recently, Dongwoon Anatech completed exploratory clinical trials of D-SaLife in collaboration with Professor Seung-Hwan Lee’s research team from the Department of Endocrinology at Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital and has begun compiling clinical statistical data in close consultation with the hospital. Since accuracy is the most critical issue, the company is committed to compiling precise results.

Dongwoon Anatech CEO Dong-Chul Kim said, "Since we attracted global attention by presenting D-SaLife in Europe last year, the patent registration in Europe is especially meaningful," adding, "We will strive to target the local market in Europe, an advanced overseas market."

Dongwoon Anatech launched an official website last month where detailed information about D-SaLife can be found. The site provides detailed information about the product technology, usage methods, patent status, and more.
