Article citations within a 'host' document After patent citations the most common citations are articles within serials (periodicals, magazines), books and electronic (eg. internet) sources. This is a very complex and varied area to standardise. The tag set below is drawn from a number of sources as is the order of the tags (which in any case can be changed depending on the stylesheet used).; The order of tags is that of WIPO ST.14 / ISO 690 layout. DROP, J.G. Integrated Circuit Personalization at the Module Level. IBM Tech. Dis. Bull. October 1974, Vol. 17, No. 5, p. 1344 and 1345.

PCT WRITTEN OPINION OF THE INTERNATIONAL SEARCHING AUTHORITY (ISA) (PCT Rule 43bis.1) (FORM PCT/ISA/237) (The following data is taken from srep-info area): - Correspondence address - Date of mailing (day/month/year) - Applicant s or agent s file reference - International application No. - International filing date (day/month/year) - Priority date (day/month/year) - International Patent Classification (IPC) or both national classification and IPC - Applicant name (followed by the text:) FOR FURTHER ACTION If a demand for international preliminary examination is made, this opinion will be considered to be a written opinion of the International Preliminary Examining Authority ( IPEA ) except that this does not apply where the applicant chooses an Authority other than this one to be the IPEA and the chosen IPEA has notified the International Bureau under Rule 66.1bis(b) that written opinions of this International Searching Authority will not be so considered. If this opinion is, as provided above, considered to be a written opinion of the IPEA, the applicant is invited to submit to the IPEA a written reply together, where appropriate, with amendments, before the expiration of 3 months from the date of mailing of Form PCT/ISA/220 or before the expiration of 22 months from the priority date, whichever expires later.

SEQUENCE LISTING According to WIPO ST.25: STANDARD FOR THE PRESENTATION OF NUCLEOTIDE AND AMINO ACID SEQUENCE LISTINGS IN PATENT APPLICATIONS: see http://www.wipo.int/scit/en/index.html "The sequence listing as defined in paragraph 2(i) shall, where it is filed together with the application, be placed at the end of the description part of the application. This part shall be entitled Sequence Listing, begin on a new page and preferably have independent page numbering. The sequence listing forms an integral part of the description; it is therefore unnecessary, subject to paragraph 36, to describe the sequences elsewhere in the description." Therefore we create here a separate sub-document for sequence listings, it should follow any drawings or the claims. It should follow the format of Annex C/ST.25 and be an external file

(PCT/ISA/237 - Box II) Priority 1. The following document has not yet been furnished: Attribute vakue: 1 = copy of the earlier application whose priority has been claimed (Rules 43bis.1 and 66.7(a)). 2 = translation of the earlier application whose priority has been claimed (Rules 43bis.1 and 66.7(b)). Consequently it has not been possible to consider the validity of the priority claim. This opinion has nevertheless been established on the assumption that the relevant date is the claimed priority date.
