| schestowitz | "A substance is defined by its chemical composition (small molecule, macrocycle, peptied, DNA molecue, RNA molecule, polymer) either directly or by the eprocess for its manufacture. A composition is a combination of one or more chemical substances. I have no doubt that the hydrogel-forming peptide is clearly a composition, irrespective of its mechanism of action. I'm sure I am not alone in believing this to be the case.<br /><br />" | Feb 19 01:07 |
| schestowitz | ;A composition that is an alloy of iron and carbon having structure x with dimensions y" is clearly a device even though it is defined by its molecular composition, because its secondary structure defines shape and not an interaction between the molecules. Contrast this with protein complexes, which are not devices.<br /><br />Lacking the ability to re-use or elimination by the body are artificial definitions that show no understan | Feb 19 01:07 |

Swallowed cameras are eliminated, but are clearly devices.<br /><br />"The use of a camera capsule to photograph the intestine" is not a method of treatment so the use claim is allowable.
