Introduced: January 1990
Full Title
Full titles differ between systems:
Mutation or genetic engineering; DNA or RNA concerning genetic engineering, vectors, e.g. plasmids, or their isolation, preparation or purification; Use of hosts therefor > Recombinant DNA-technology > Introduction of foreign genetic material using vectors; Vectors; Use of hosts therefor; Regulation of expression
Mutation or genetic engineering; DNA or RNA concerning genetic engineering, vectors, e.g. plasmids, or their isolation, preparation or purification; Use of hosts therefor (mutants or genetically engineered microorganisms, per se C12N1/00, C12N5/00, C12N7/00; new plants per se A01H; plant reproduction by tissue culture techniques A01H4/00; new animals per se A01K67/00; use of medicinal preparations containing genetic material which is inserted into cells of the living body to treat genetic diseases, gene therapy A61K48/00) > Recombinant DNA-technology > Introduction of foreign genetic material using vectors; Vectors; Use of hosts therefor; Regulation of expression
Of 8 combined children, 7 exist in both systems.
1 codes are CPC-only extensions.
1 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
IPC defines codes here since 1990.
