Dear Laura,

 

Regarding the mark, BIO RAZOR, in addition to the amendment of the identification of goods as we discussed, we also require a disclaimer of the descriptive term, BIO, apart from the mark as shown. Please note that a disclaimer of an unregistrable part of a mark will not affect the mark’s appearance.  See Schwarzkopf v. John H. Breck, Inc., 340 F.2d 978, 979-80, 144 USPQ 433, 433 (C.C.P.A. 1965).

 

 

If this is acceptable to you, please confirm by e-mail response or call and I will make the amendment in the Examiner’s Amendment office action.

 

Thank you,

 

Asmat
