Information on American’s heart is not specific (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

generic

'not specific' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'information on american's heart' is the wordplay.
'information' becomes 'gen' (gen is a kind of information).
'on' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'heart' means to look at the middle letters.
The middle letters of 'american' are 'eric'.
'gen'+'eric'='GENERIC'

'is' is the link.

(Other definitions for generic that I've seen before include "Common" , "Applicable to an entire class or group" , "Referring to a whole class or group" , "Collective" , "appropriate for the whole class" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
