applications (NADA's) and 4 abbreviated animal drug applications 
(ANADA's) from Hoffmann-La Roche, Inc., to Roche Vitamins, Inc.

Rockville, MD 20855, 301-827-0213.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Hoffmann-La Roche, Inc., Nutley, NJ 07110, 
has informed FDA that it has transferred the ownership of and all 
rights and interests in approved NADA's and ANADA's to Roche Vitamins,
