Appeal No. 2000-1958 Application No. 08/854,620 line data including chemical shifts, of a measured spectral line data. Since we cannot find a clear suggestion in Meyer, and the examiner has not convinced us of such a suggestion, of a database of reference spectral line data of various elements in different compound forms and a comparison, with that reference spectral line data including chemical shifts, of measured spectral line data, we find no prima facie case of obviousness regarding the instant claimed subject matter. Accordingly, the examiner’s decision rejecting claims 1, 2, 4 and 5 under 35 U.S.C. 103 is reversed. REVERSED ERROL A. KRASS ) Administrative Patent Judge ) ) ) ) ) PARSHOTAM S.
