Such functional copolymers as the proteins are called "mechanomers" here (distinguishing naturally-occurring mechanomers as "biopolymers" where convenient); the science of mechanomers is called "mechanomerics"; and applied mechanomerics is called "mechanomeric engineering", including "mechanomeric medicine".

Mechanomeric engineering requires some technique for developing mechanomers to perform desired functions, such as enzymes…

The chemical substance destroys the swollen synovial tissue, which reduces pain and swelling, and decreases the frequency of acute bleeds. The radionuclides are injected in colloidal form… Continue
