in vascular plants, the soil solution is transported from the roots to the leaves through smalldiameter vessels found in the xylem; this transport not only allows the nutrient uptake but also the accumulation of heavy metals in their shoots. by analogy to this phenomenon, the present study aimed at the evaluation of heavy metals transport (pb, cr, as, cd, zn, ni and al) in ph 4 and ph 8 solutio...

Objective(s): Multifunctional nanomedicine is the new generation of medicine, which is remarkably promising and associated with the minimum toxicity of targeted therapy. Distribution and transport of nanoparticles (NPs) in the blood flow are essential to the evaluation of delivery efficacy. Materials and Methods: In the present study, we initially designed a phantom based on Murray’s mini...

a simple mathematical model of steady state  oxygen distribution subject to diffusive transport and non- linear uptake in a retinal cylinder has been developed. the approximate analytical solution to a reaction- diffusion equation are obtained by using series expansions. the computational results for the scaled variables are presented through graphs. the effect of the important parameters (1) d...

A theoretical model is developed to investigate the influence of hemoglobin-based oxygen carriers (HBOCs) on oxygen transport in capillary-size vessels. A discrete cell model is presented with red blood cells (RBCs) represented in their realistic parachute shape flowing in a single file through a capillary. The model includes the free and Hb-facilitated transport of O2 and Hb-O2 kinetics in the...

A mathematical model for nutritional transport in capillary tissues exchange system in thepresence of magnetic field has been studied. In this case, the cell is deformed. Due to concentrationgradients, the dissolved nutrient in substrate diffuses into surrounding tissue. Theanalytical method is based on perturbation technique while the numerical simulation is basedon finite difference scheme. R...
