ABSTRACT
Chinese materia medica (CMM) is well-respected nowadays. Multinational pharmaceutical companies have grabbed huge market profits by implementing patent strategies, while we can see there are many problems in the protection of the intellectual property rights in CMM enterprises in China. Such as the consciousness on patent protection is not strong, the plan and management of patent mining is not reasonable, the layout of patent is not scientific, and so on, which seriously affects the development of the CMM industry. So the patent mining, the collection mechanism of inventive concept, collaboration applications of the types of patent layout have been discussed and studied in this paper, in order to promote the patent strategies to be effectively applied in the CMM industry in the process of modernization.
