In this respect only the use of human cells enable us to detect the individual variability and to identify sensitive subpopu- lations that would be at greater risk. My appreciation to Pieranita and Alberto Castellani for the as- sistance during the meeting and to Giuseppe Biondi for his help in some of the editorial work.
