22 E8 PHARMACEUTICALS, LLC v. AFFYMETRIX, INC.

Before LOURIE, DYK, and O’MALLEY, Circuit Judges.

We affirm the judgment of noninfringement in favor of Affymetrix, Inc. and Navigenics, Inc. We base our decision solely on our agreement with the district court’s construction of the phrase “randomly primed PCR-derived RCG.” We do not reach any other issues raised on appeal.
