Leech cultivation and live-source hirudin extraction
The published text describes staged leech cultivation and breeding, induction of saliva secretion from live leeches, and subsequent filtration, separation and purification. It also describes returning leeches to cultivation for repeat extraction. This summarizes a preparation technique, not clinical evidence for an oral finished product.

A production method for natural hirudin
The process covers extraction and filtration of a natural-hirudin-containing liquid, acid precipitation, heat treatment, pH adjustment, centrifugation and concentration, followed by addition of a water-soluble excipient and freeze-drying to form a powder. The text also describes thrombin titration for measuring hirudin content.

Large-scale production of natural hirudin
The disclosed method induces saliva release from live blood-sucking leeches, collects crude hirudin liquid, then filters it, adds a filler and dries it into powder. It also describes rinsing and continued cultivation for repeat extraction, as well as freeze-drying or spray-drying conditions.

Large-scale hirudin separation, purification and equipment
The text describes processing crude hirudin through acid precipitation, heating, cooling, solid/liquid separation, neutralization, microfiltration and nanofiltration, followed by collection and freeze-drying. Associated equipment includes process tanks, centrifuges, filtration units and product tanks, with return lines and selectable process routes.

Recognize the research.
Keep the evidence in perspective.
A disclosed technical process
A patent describes a claimed process or equipment scope; it is not independent testing of every finished product.
Current rights require a separate check
Applicants, transfers and validity should be checked against current official records. Google Patents status fields are indexing information, not legal advice.
Finished products need their own evidence
General hirudin research and patent text do not replace evidence for a specific oral formulation, dose and route.
