With the advancement of modernization in traditional Chinese medicine, the application of nanotechnology in traditional Chinese medicine has been paid increasing attention. This article outlines the current status of nanotechnology patents in traditional Chinese medicine, and indicates that the awareness of intellectual property rights protection in the field of traditional Chinese medicine has been weak in China. This article also analyzes the characteristics and directions of development of nanotechnology-related patents in traditional Chinese medicine, and points out that university-industry cooperation should be strengthened to accelerate the industrialization of the patents.
