Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 520.390a, 520.540b, 520.622a, 520.823, 520.1484, 520.1660d, 520.1696b, 520.1720a, 520.1720d, 520.2123a, 520.2123b, 520.2260b, 522.820, 522.2444b, 524.1580b, 526.820, 558.248, and 558.625 to reflect the transfer of ownership.
Following this change of sponsorship, Bimeda, Inc., is no longer the sponsor of any approved application. Accordingly, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is being amended to remove the entries for Bimeda, Inc.
