Abstract

Background: The ora-pro-nóbis (Pereskia aculeata Mill.) is a plant from Brazilian biodiversity used for food and medicinal purposes. It has ample technological potential, however, it is still underutilized, being classified as a Non-Conventional Food Plant (PANC). Prospective studies in intellectual property banks make it possible to expand perspectives for scientific research, enhancing the generation of new products.

Objective: Evaluate the patents of products containing Pereskia aculeata Mill. for the areas of food and health in intellectual property databases.

Methods: The study was conducted through structured prospective investigation (collection, processing and analysis) in 4 patent databases: National Institute of Intellectual Property (INPI) - Brazil, United States Patent and Trademark Office, World Trade Organization Intellectual Property (WIPO) and Espacenet.

Results: The evaluation showed a reduced number of registered patents. In general, 8 patent applications were examined, of which 7 are directly associated with the species (and its derivatives) and 1 is related to a device specially designed for harvesting leaves/fruits and removing thorns. The focus of the patents was the use of the species in the food, pharmaceutical and biotechnological areas, with emphasis on the use of the leaves in the extraction of mucilage and proteins.

Conclusion: This study showed that Pereskia aculeata Mill. is a technologically promising plant, because of its nutritional and medicinal composition, and it is important to encourage innovation and the development of new products with the species.

Ora-pro-Nóbis(Pereskia aculeata Mill.)的技术展望:一种非常规食用植物。
背景:orra-pro-nóbis(Pereskia aculeata Mill.)是巴西生物多样性中的一种植物,用于食用和药用。它具有巨大的技术潜力,但仍未得到充分利用,被列为非常规食用植物(PANC)。知识产权库中的前瞻性研究可以拓展科学研究的前景,促进新产品的开发:评估知识产权数据库中含有 Pereskia aculeata Mill:本研究通过对 4 个专利数据库进行结构化前瞻性调查(收集、处理和分析)来进行:结果:评估显示,在巴西国家知识产权局(INPI)、美国专利商标局、世界贸易组织知识产权局(WIPO)和 Espacenet:评估结果表明,注册专利数量有所减少。总体而言,共审查了 8 项专利申请,其中 7 项与该物种(及其衍生物)直接相关,1 项与专门设计用于采摘叶片/果实和去除刺的装置有关。专利的重点是该物种在食品、制药和生物技术领域的应用,重点是利用叶片提取粘液和蛋白质:这项研究表明,Pereskia aculeata Mill.因其营养和药用成分而成为一种具有技术前景的植物,因此鼓励创新和开发该物种的新产品非常重要。
