Overview: The project under progress concerns the development of a Local as View mediator for querying heterogeneous sources of end stage organ failure and transplantation information. In that context, the authors have chosen to use Protege OWL for building OWL ontology of the dialysis and transplantation domain. This paper is a short overview about some points related to its construction. This concrete experience clearly enlightened some advantages of OWL DL against some more traditional frame based approach, for instance for dealing with multiple viewpoints. But it also showed some limits of OWL DL for the construction of biomedical ontologies, for instance for expressing the transfer of properties from parts to wholes.
