1Opinion of the Court
GARRETT, Chief 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 three claims, being all the claims, of appellant’s patent application, serial No. 536,054, filed May 17, 1944, entitled “Germicide.”
The claims are numbered 649, 650, and 651 respectively. All three were rejected as being unpatentable over prior art cited, and numbers 649 and 650 on the additional ground that they are unduly broad, indefinite, and functional and do not meet the statutory requirement for particularity in claiming.
