          Appeal No. 1997-4117                                                        
          Application No. 08/344,746                                                  


          Golestan combination discussed above.  Since claims 7 and 15                
          are dependent on claims 1 and 10, respectively, and contain                 
          all of the                                                                  




          limitations of the claim from which they depend, we will not                
          sustain the standing 35 U.S.C. § 103 rejection of these                     
          claims.                                                                     
               In summary, all of the examiner's rejections of claims 1,              
          6 through 10, 15 through 17, 19, 20 and 27 are reversed.                    
                                      REVERSED
