          been used as a template to selectively combine isolated

          or motivation to do so.                                                     
               Accordingly, we shall not sustain the standing 35 U.S.C.

          dependent claims 3 through 5 as being unpatentable over                     
          Laurash in view of Neubauer, or the standing 35 U.S.C. §                    
          103(a) rejection of dependent claims 2 and 6 as being                       
          unpatentable over Laurash in view of Neubauer and Doll.
