解説

This is a translation where it can be tricky to keep the subjects straight. In this case, the use of “it” in “in that it comprises...” is appropriate and can reasonably be understood due to the phrasing of the subject of the sentence. However, if you wish to more clearly express the subject without the use of “it,” it is acceptable to again restate the subject, such as “the invention according to claim 1 of the present application differs from the invention described in Reference 1 in that the invention according to claim 1 comprises....” This type of translation is a bit more wordy and comes across as slightly redundant, but removes all doubt regarding the subject.
