Appeal No. 97-2554 Application No. 08/164,112 a panel of two odor specialists who independently rank the urine-wet odor of the samples on a scale of 1 (least) to 10 (most) for malodor and intensity. Samples yielding an odor ranking below about 3.0 possess an odor which would hardly be noticed by the general public. As a result of these tests (page 13, lines 3 to 7): If the surface-active agent coated test sample receives a lower average ranking for malodor and intensity than the non-surface-active agent coated test sample (control), the surface-active agent being tested is considered effective to reduce the odor of urine. 5Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
