An analytical solution for diffusion and nonlinear uptake of oxygen in a spherical cell
چکیده انگلیسی

We develop a new analytical solution for a reactive transport model that describes the steady-state distribution of oxygen subject to diffusive transport and nonlinear uptake in a sphere. This model was originally reported by Lin [S.H. Lin, Oxygen diffusion in a spherical cell with nonlinear oxygen uptake kinetics, J. Theor. Biol. 60 (1976) 449–457] to represent the distribution of oxygen inside a cell and has since been studied extensively by both the numerical analysis and formal analysis communities. Here we extend these previous studies by deriving an analytical solution to a generalized reaction–diffusion equation that encompasses Lin’s model as a particular case. We evaluate the solution for the parameter combinations presented by Lin and show that the new solutions are identical to a grid-independent numerical approximation.
