    Notes: Abstract. Objective and Design: To study the neutrophil migration and aggregation induced by euphorbin, a d-galactose binding lectin from Euphorbia milii var. milii latex.¶Materials and Methods: Euphorbin-induced neutrophil migration was evaluated in vivo and in vitro, in the absence or presence of soluble d-galactose. Neutrophil aggregation induced in vitro by euphorbin was determined by light microscopy.¶Results: The neutrophil migration inducing activity of euphorbin was dose-dependent and inhibited by soluble d-galactose. Neutrophil aggregation was rapidly reversed when provoked by 0.1mg/ml euphorbin. In higher concentrations, euphorbin caused persistent and more extensive neutrophil aggregation.¶Conclusions: Euphorbin induced neutrophil migration through its sugar recognition property. The transitory neutrophil aggregation, induced by a euphorbin quantity similar to that able to cause maximal chemotac tic response, is characteristic of homotypic neutrophil adhesion, whereas persistent aggregation, provoked by higher euphorbin quantities, corresponds to cell agglutination by a multivalent lectin.

    Notes: Abstract An approach based on multiple-criteria decision aid (MCDA) methods has been introduced for the prioritization of technical/engineering design requirements during the quality function deployment (QFD) process. The proposed method allows the avoidance of the rigid procedure under which the relationship matrix coefficients are turned from an ordinal into a cardinal scale. A comparison analysis is carried out between the “traditional” approach and the proposed one. A numerical example is also provided so as to highlight the main differences between the two methods.

    Notes: Abstract The configuration of three-dimensional strain rosettes is shown to be directly related to precision and reliability. Equations are given for computing these parameters, and several rosette configurations are compared accordingly. Experimental techniques developed at Istituto di Metrologia “G. Colonnetti” are described. A case history is given, in which the analysis of deviations between expected and actual embedded rosette results throws some light on complex interactions between model and deadweight loading machine.
