Here are some quick tips to get you started:
Enclose terms in double quotation marks if you want to search for phrases.
Expand your searches by linking your search term with an OR Operator. The search engine will find records that contain at least one of your search terms.
Narrow your searches by linking your search terms with the AND Operator. The search engine will find records that contain all of your search terms.
Diacritical characters (ü, ö) and characters with accents are not supported. For example, to find hüls as an applicant, enter huls; to find "Hervé Roussel" as an inventor, enter Roussel Herve.
