          Application No. 09/072,190                                                  


               In the final rejection (p. 3) and the answer (p. 5), the               
          examiner set forth his rationale as to why claims 12 to 15                  
          were indefinite.  Specifically, the examiner noted that the                 
          phrase ".3 by weight" in line 5 of claim 12 should be --.3                  
          percent by                                                                  
          weight --.                                                                  


               The appellant has not specifically contested this                      
          rejection in the brief or reply brief.  In fact, the appellant              
          agrees with the examiner that claim 12 should be corrected and              
          asks that this be corrected by an Examiner's Amendment (brief,              
          p. 5).  Since
