         Appeal No. 2001-1568                                                       
         Application 09/099,078                                                     


                                  CONCLUSION                                        
              In view of the above, we reverse each of the art rejections           
         of record because we find that the comparative testing conducting          
         by appellants is sufficient evidence to rebut a prima facie case.
