Practitioners should observe that the 2 distinct art units involved indicate that the company's innovations are being evaluated under different sets of technical criteria. The current volume of pending office actions indicates the level of activity. The spread across these examiners requires a strategy that accounts for different perspectives within the patent office, as each examiner may have unique interpretations of biotechnology patentability.
