          Appeal No. 1997-1281                                                        
          Application No. 08/317,830                                                  


                                    OTHER ISSUES                                      
               In the event of further prosecution of the claimed subject             
          matter, the examiner is advised to obtain English translations of           
          published Japanese Patent Application 47001800 referred to in the           
          Derwent Abstract and published Japanese Patent Application                  
          2192301 A in the Chemical Abstract, both of which are cited in              
          Parent Application 07/680,307, and determine whether they affect            
          the patentability of the claimed subject matter.                            
                                     CONCLUSION                                       
               In view of the foregoing, we affirm the decision of the                
          examiner rejecting all of the appealed claims under 35 U.S.C.               
          § 103 and the doctrine of obviousness-type double patenting.
