                 Application No. 08/485,161                                                                                                             


                 and the respective viewpoints of appellant and the examiner.                                                                           
                 As a consequence of our review, we make the determinations                                                                             
                 which follow.                                                                                                                          























                          5(...continued)                                                                                                               
                 would have fairly taught one of ordinary skill in the art.                                                                             
                 See In re Boe, 355 F.2d 961, 965, 148 USPQ 507, 510 (CCPA                                                                              
                 1966). Additionally, this panel of the board has taken into                                                                            
                 account not only the specific teachings, but also the                                                                                  
                 inferences which one skilled in the art would reasonably have                                                                          
                 been expected to draw from the disclosure.  See In re Preda,                                                                           
                 401 F.2d 825, 826, 159 USPQ 342, 344 (CCPA 1968).
