1Opinion of the Court
O’CONNELL, Judge.
This is an appeal from the decision of the Board of Appeals of the United States Patent Office affirming the rejection by the Primary Examiner of the two product claims of appellant’s application for a patent relating to novel salts of pantothenic acid.
The appealed claims read:
“1. An alkali-forming metal salt of pantothenic acid.
“2. Physiologically active calcium pantothenate.”
The Board of Appeals in its final decision referred to but three prior art publications. Upon those references the Solicitor for the Patent Office has based his argument here.
