BioGenex Laboratories Inc., a private company which develops technologies for drug and life science research, said Tuesday an Arizona district court ruled in its favor in a patent infringement lawsuit against Ventana Medical Systems Inc. The ruling, known as a Markman Ruling, limits the scope of Tucson-based Ventana's patent for a research process known as automated staining. In the suit, Ventana had claimed that BioGenex's automated staining device infringes on its patent for a similar device. Ventana's tissue processors and staining instruments are used by cancer research centers and drug discovery labs.
