Novelty (no)
Auxiliary request: right to priority (partial)
Novelty (yes) - the features of a prior patent specification as a whole do not disclose a specific, novelty-destroying example
Inventive step (no) - alleged advantages to which the appealing patentee refers, without offering sufficient evidence to support the comparison with the closest state of the art, cannot be taken into consideration in determining the problem underlying the invention and hence in assessing inventive step - proposed solution to the acutal problem of providing further gellable compositions, in addition to those disclosed in the closest prior art, not inventive.
