          Appeal No. 98-0455                                                          
          Application 08/467,247                                                      



                    [e]nablement is the criterion, and every                          
                    detail need not be set forth in the written                       
                    specification if the skill in the art is                          
                    such that the disclosure enables one to                           
                    make the    invention.                                            


                    For the above reasons, we will not sustain the                    
          examiner's rejection of claims 3, 4, 7 and 8 under 35 U.S.C.                
          § 112, first paragraph, as being directed to a non-enabling                 
          disclosure.                                                                 


                    The decision of the examiner is reversed.                         


                                      REVERSED
