LXX Lexaria Bioscience Corp

KELOWNA, BC / ACCESSWIRE / December 14, 2015 / Lexaria Corp. (OTCQB:LXRP) (CSE:LXX) (the "Company" or "Lexaria") announces it has initiated the simultaneous filing of two new U.S. provisional patent applications at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office.

These applications are in addition to the Company's earlier 2014 and 2015 family of provisional patent application filings, and build on the innovations earlier established. The Company has filed the new patent applications in order to establish broader intellectual property protection regarding its innovative method of combining certain useful payload molecules with certain edible substances within food and beverage compositions. Benefits of the innovation include improved taste and aroma experiences as well as higher absorption rates of the payload molecules.

The new edible substances are base ingredients in many commercial food and beverage formulations, involving products as diverse as carbonated and non-carbonated beverages; fruit or vegetable flavored beverages; dairy based beverages; sports and energy drinks; flavored water; pastas; breads, grains; spices and more. The applications also encompass pharmaceutical compositions that include tablets, pills, capsules, liquids, gels and syrups.

Specifically, the Company has protected improved food and beverage compositions with lipophilic active agents and methods of their manufacture using tapioca starch or other related compounds, as well as improved ready-to-drink beverage compositions with lipophilic active agents and methods of their manufacture using gum Arabic or other related compounds.

The new patent applications are applicable to the same payload molecules as the Company's earlier patent applications: cannabinoids, nicotine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (acetylsalicylic acid, ibuprophen, acetaminophen, diclofenac, indomethacin, and piroxicam), and vitamins.

Lexaria is confident it has now done all it can to expand and preserve the intellectual property value of its underlying technology, and its application into a wide variety of products within both the food and the pharmaceutical industries. The Company remains fully committed to its consumer products division, however this underlying technology provides Lexaria its most significant competitive advantages in the consumer marketplace, and will soon provide the foundation for future technology licensing and partnering efforts.
