Appeal No. 2005-0241 Application No. 09/904,831 at least one oxidation dye precursor, and at least one nonionic amphiphilic polymer comprising at least one fatty chain and at least one hydrophilic unit, said at least one nonionic amphiphilic polymer being chosen from: (1) celluloses modified with groups containing at least one fatty chain, and (2) hydroxypropyl guars modified with groups containing at least one fatty chain. Claims 30 through 34 and 37 through 71 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being obvious over Dubief in view of the International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary. On page 5 of the answer, the examiner has indicated that the rejection of claim 47 under 35 U.S.C. § 112, second paragraph, has been withdrawn. The examiner relies upon the following references as evidence of unpatentability: Dubief et al. (Dubief) 5,700,456 Dec. 23, 1997 International Cosmetic Ingredient Dictionary, Fifth Edition, Vol. 1, 1993, pp. 110. We limit our consideration to claim 30 in this appeal, according to appellants’ grouping as set forth on page 4 of the brief and 37 CFR § 1.192 (c)(7)(2003). 2Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
