          Appeal No. 95-2855                                                          
          Application 08/075,338                                                      


          rejection of these claims under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  Although there            
          are several arguments in the briefs and the answers related to

          necessarily means that the rejection of the dependent claims must           
          also be reversed.                                                           
          In summary, we have determined that the original                            
          specification does provide support for the invention now being              
          claimed by appellant.  We have also determined that Ichinose and            
          the level of skill in the art would not have suggested the
