Appeal 2007-0510 Application 10/699,507 1 The samples may be physically separated from each other, such as in 2 different regions of a substrate or in different sample containers. Kolosov, 3 para. [0056]. 4 Kolosov contemplates that the substrate and sample containers can be 5 used with automated sampling and automated substrate-handling devices. 6 Kolosov, para. [0059]. 7 In one embodiment, the samples may be moved relative to the probe 8 14. Kolosov, para. [0073]. 9 The samples may be moved by an automated system, e.g., a robot 10 arm. Kolosov, para. [0073]. 11 A suitable automated system may be a robotic system that has 12 multiple axis range of motion in the orthogonal x, y, z coordinate axes 13 system. Typically, such an automated system would be part of or in 14 communication with the computer sub-system 23. Kolosov, para. [0074]. 15 3. O’Rear 16 O’Rear discloses a blend of lube base oils which provide improved 17 oxidation stability, both with and without additives. O’Rear, para. [0001]. 18 Finished lubricants used for automobiles, diesel engines, and 19 industrial applications consist of two general components: a lube base oil 20 and additives. O’Rear, para. [0002]. 21 The lube base oil disclosed in O’Rear may be used in a finished 22 lubricant composition and, thus, may contain one or more additives, 23 depending on the particular use of the oil. O’Rear, para. [0046]. 24 O’Rear discloses that the additives are used in amounts which are 25 known to those of skill in the art, preferably about 0.1 to about 40 weight 26 percent of the final lube oil product.
