          Patent Judges.

               This is a decision on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 134 from the            
          examiner’s final rejection of claims 32 and 33.1  A copy of each            
          of the these claims is set forth below:                                     
                    32. A device for holding specimens in a plurality                 
               of chambers, said device comprising:                                   
                    a single-piece unitary body;                                      

                                                                                      
          1   We note that appellant’s Appendix to the brief incorrectly identifies   
          claims 32 and 33 as claims 1 and 2.  We refer to the claims as claims 32 and
          33.
