What this shows Citrox's Innovation Score is 40.2/100 (top 36% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Citrox?

Each dot is one of Citrox’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Citrox’s own 10.2 claims/patent is at or below the 12.0 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Citrox's grants concentrate

Citrox Biosciences Limited is a focused PatentsView assignee: 17 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under A23B (Preservation OF Foods, Foodstuffs OR Non-alcoholic BEVERAGES; Chemical Ripening OF Fruit OR Vegetables). Peak complete grant year is 2018 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2020. By volume, Citrox sits between Circle Computer Resources, Inc. and Clean Air Group, Inc..

Citrox's three-year grant acceleration

Citrox Biosciences Limited shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
