said polymer lattice.
13. Reissue claim 15 requires the pheromone compound to be “cis-2-
isopropylpentyl-1-methyl-cyclobutane-ethanol” and, therefore, covers the same
subject matter as dependent reissue claim 13 written in independent form.
14. Reissue claim 16 requires the pheromone compound to be “1,1-dimethyl-chloro-
2-methylcyclohexane-1-carboxylate” and, therefore, covers the same subject
matter as dependent reissue claim 14 written in independent form.
15. Reissue claim 17 requires the pheromone compound to be “selected from the
group consisting of 1,1-dimethyl-4-chloro-2-methylcyclohexane-1-carboxylate,
1,1-dimethyl-5-chloro-2-methylcyclohexane-1-carboxylate, cis-2-isopropylpentyl-
1-methyl-cyclobutane-ethanol, medlure, siglure, butyl sorbate, cue-lure, and
methyl eugenol.”
16. Reissue claim 19 requires the pheromone compound to be “selected from the
group consisting of grandlure, trimedlure, methyl eugenol, and cuelure-
malathion.”
17. None of reissue claims 15 through 17 or 19 explicitly state that the recited
pheromone is a solid phase pheromone compound.
18. Reissue claims 17 and 19 enlarge the scope of the claims of the original patent
by reciting Markush groups of pheromone compounds which are not limited to
subsets of the pheromone compounds recited in the original patent claims.
Other findings of fact follow below.
