          Appeal No. 2002-2333                                                        
          Application No. 09/741,467                                                  


          matrices of appellant are essentially the same as the processed             
          composition of Kuipers.  This, however, the examiner has not                
          done.  In addition, there is declaration evidence of record by              
          one of ordinary skill in the art which offers the opinion that              
          "Kuipers' product is not the same or similar to Onwulata's                  
          [appellant's] product" (page 2 of Declaration, second paragraph).           
               In conclusion, based on the foregoing, the examiner's                  
          decision rejecting the appealed claims is reversed.
