    Docket Number: 96-068. Applicant: The University of Vermont, 
Burlington, VT 05405. Instrument: Multisample Inlet Manifold for Mass 
Spectrometer. Manufacturer: Pro-Vac Services, United Kingdom. Intended 
Use: See notice at 61 FR 39948, July 31, 1996.
    Comments: None received. Decision: Approved. No instrument of 
equivalent scientific value to the foreign instrument, for such 
purposes as it is intended to be used, is being manufactured in the 
United States. Reasons: This is a compatible accessory for an existing 
instrument purchased for the use of the applicant.
    The National Institutes of Health advises in its memorandum dated 
July 24, 1996, that the accessory is pertinent to the intended uses and 
that it knows of no comparable domestic accessory.
    We know of no domestic accessory which can be readily adapted to 
the existing instrument.
