Maikology Designated Activity Company currently manages 1 pending office action within the Medical Devices & Mechanical Engineering technology area. This active matter is assigned to examiner NGUYEN, BAO D, who is the busiest examiner for the portfolio.

This arrangement allows the applicant to concentrate their resources on a point of contact within the patent office.
The portfolio is distributed across 1 distinct art unit and involves 1 distinct examiner. Because the busiest examiner handles 1 pending office action, the prosecution strategy relies entirely on the interactions with NGUYEN, BAO D.
