The difference in concentration for every component is less than 5 %. The elements under 1 % content are either noble ones, or the ones that oxidize and be eliminated during melting. Consequently, they have little effect upon the characteristics of the alloys. # Conclusion Up to 99 % both alloy consist of the same elements. This suggets that chemical and biological behaviour should be similar. Image /page/0/Picture/21 description: The image shows a logo with the letters "TUV" in bold, black font. Above the letters are two small squares. The logo is enclosed in a rounded rectangular shape with a double border. The logo appears to be a certification mark. {1}------------------------------------------------ Food and Drug Administration -9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville MD 20850 SEP - 5 1997 Mr. Jerome D.
