 TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 14, 2020 GLOBE NEWSWIRE -- HTG Molecular Diagnostics, Inc. Nasdaq: HTGM HTG, a life science company whose mission is to advance precision medicine, today provided an update regarding its patent infringement claims against BioSpyder Technologies, Inc BioSpyder. On August 13, 2020, BioSpyder filed a lawsuit seeking a declaration that it does not infringe HTGs U.S. Patent No. 8,741,564 the 564 patent. In several previous communications between the companies, HTG had asserted its claims that BioSpyders TempO-Seq gene expression tool infringes the 564 patent. We believe our patents are strong, and we intend to vigorously enforce them just as any other IP-centric company would do, said John L. Lubniewski, President and CEO of HTG. We had previously offered the possibility of arriving at a negotiated settlement that recognizes our patent rights, but BioSpyder was clearly not interested in that approach. We look forward to a fair and speedy resolution of our infringement claims.About HTG: HTG is focused on NGS-based molecular profiling.
