Headnote: Where a patent specification is used to support an assertion of prejudice, it must be borne in mind that technical information in a patent specification may be based on special premises or on the view of the drafter. For that reason, even if the patent specification has been issued by an examining patent office, such information can often be accorded general validity only where further corroboration is available. This holds particularly where the information given in the patent specification is not readily compatible with the notions currently accepted in the art.
