A myeloma is an abnormal proliferation of plasma cells derived from reticulum cells (Innes and Newall, 1961). Four types are usually differentiated: multiple myeloma when tumours are scattered through the skeleton; solitary myeloma or plasmacytoma when the lesion is localized to a single focus in a bone; extramedullary plasmacytoma when the lesion is found in extraosseous sites such as the uppe...

This paper concerns a biorobotic system based on fuzzy logic to diagnose and monitor the neuro-psycho-physical conditions of an individual . The system, called Daphne, is characterized by a small dimension design; userfriendly hardware and software mean that even non-experts will be able to use this device. Furthermore, thanks to its design concept, the system can be used not only for medical a...

Human beta-globin was synthesized in Escherichia coli as a cleavable fusion protein, using the expression vector pLcIIFX beta-globin [Nagai, K. & Thøgersen, H. C. (1984) Nature (London) 309, 810-812].
