The following rejections are before us in this appeal : 4

thesis, News & Observer article, PSA abstract and any one of
Moller-Madsen, GB 612503, and Jones. In addition, the Egg
Pasteurization Manual is cited as an evidentiary showing.
4Since the other grounds of rejection set forth in the
final rejection were not set forth in the examiner's answer we
conclude that these other grounds of rejection have been
withdrawn by the examiner. See Ex parte Emm, 118 USPQ 180,
181 (Bd. App. 1957).
