          Appeal No. 96-3687                                                          
          Application 08/008,212                                                      


          that the references do not teach or suggest molecular imprinting            
          of PCB congeners into a proteinaceous material and the use of the           
          imprinted material to adsorb PCB congeners.  Since we are in                
          substantial agreement with appellant's position as set forth in             
          his brief, we adopt that position as our own.                               
               The decision of the examiner is reversed.
