Description: The principles of transport phenomena and reaction kinetics will be used to quantitatively describe biological systems. Thermodynamics will be reviewed for the study of fluid and mass transport. The basic equations that describe convection, diffusion, and reaction will be derived. Membrane, metabolite, and oxygen transport will be covered in detail. Basic aspects of pharmacokinetics and reactor design will be discussed. Models of normal, abnormal, and bioartificial organ function will be developed. Cross-list: CHBE 420.
