          Appeal No. 2026-0818                                                        
          Application No. 10/175,064                                                  
          fibers, which have been rendered cationic dyeable.  The                     
          disclosure is not limited to the exemplified nylons.  See In re             
          Fracalossi, 681 F.2d 792, 794 n.1, 215 USPQ 569, 570 n.1 (CCPA              
          1982); In re Mills, 470 F.2d 649, 651, 176 USPQ 196, 198 (CCPA              
          1972).                                                                      
               For the above reasons we conclude that a prima facie case of           
          obviousness of the appellants’ claimed invention has been                   
          established and has not been effectively rebutted by the                    
          appellants.                                                                 
               The rejection of claims 41-52 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 over Lin           
          in view of Jenkins is affirmed.
