Parameters Affecting Nonlinear Elimination: Zero-Order Input, First-Order Absorption and Two-Compartment Model01:13

Parameters Affecting Nonlinear Elimination: Zero-Order Input, First-Order Absorption and Two-Compartment Model

406
Drugs administered through various routes can lead to nonlinear elimination, resulting in complex pharmacokinetic behaviors crucial to understanding efficacious drug dosing.
When a drug is administered through a constant intravenous infusion and eliminated via nonlinear pharmacokinetics, it follows zero-order input. For example, oral drugs undergo first-order absorption upon administration and are eliminated through nonlinear pharmacokinetics.
In the case of subcutaneously administered drugs,...

Carrier Transport

1.2K
The generation of electrical current in semiconductors is fundamentally driven by two mechanisms: drift and diffusion. These processes are essential for the functionality and performance of semiconductor-based devices.
Drift Current:
The drift of charge carriers is started by an external electric field (E). Charged particles, such as electrons and holes, experience an acceleration between collisions with lattice atoms. For electrons, this results in a drift velocity (vd) given by:

Theories of Dissolution: The Danckwerts' Model and Interfacial Barrier Model

944
Various dissolution theories provide insight into the factors that influence the dissolution rate. Danckwerts' Model suggests that turbulence, rather than a stagnant layer, characterizes the dissolution medium at the solid-liquid interface. In this model, the agitated solvent contains macroscopic packets that move to the interface via eddy currents, facilitating the absorption and delivery of the drug to the bulk solution. The regular replenishment of solvent packets maintains the...

Diffusion01:12

Diffusion

232.3K
Diffusion is the passive movement of substances down their concentration gradients—requiring no expenditure of cellular energy. Substances, such as molecules or ions, diffuse from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration in the cytosol or across membranes. Eventually, the concentration will even out, with the substance moving randomly but causing no net change in concentration. Such a state is called dynamic equilibrium, which is essential for maintaining overall...

Diffusion01:21

Diffusion

7.4K
Diffusion is a type of passive transport. In passive transport, a substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across the space. For example, take the diffusion of substances through the air. When someone opens a perfume bottle in a room filled with people, the perfume is at its highest concentration in the bottle and is at its lowest at the edges of the room. The perfume vapor will diffuse, or spread away, from the...

Behavior of Gas Molecules: Molecular Diffusion, Mean Free Path, and Effusion

32.2K
Although gaseous molecules travel at tremendous speeds (hundreds of meters per second), they collide with other gaseous molecules and travel in many different directions before reaching the desired target. At room temperature, a gaseous molecule will experience billions of collisions per second. The mean free path is the average distance a molecule travels between collisions. The mean free path increases with decreasing pressure; in general, the mean free path for a gaseous molecule will be...

Area of Science:

  • Statistical Physics
  • Mathematical Biology
  • Nonlinear Dynamics

Background:

  • Subdiffusive transport describes anomalous movement patterns common in biological systems.
  • Nonlinear interactions, such as volume filling and adhesion, significantly influence population dynamics.
  • Existing models often struggle to incorporate both non-Markovian transport and nonlinear effects.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a framework for incorporating nonlinear interaction effects into fractional subdiffusive transport.
  • To derive generic non-Markovian and nonlinear governing equations for subdiffusive cell concentrations.
  • To investigate the interplay between nonlinearities and the non-Markovian nature of transport.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized microscopic random walk models featuring anomalous trapping.
  • Systematically derived governing equations for mean concentrations of subdiffusive cells or organisms.
  • Analyzed the mathematical structure of the derived equations, particularly in the subdiffusive and long-time limits.

Main Results:

  • Successfully incorporated 'volume filling' and 'adhesion' nonlinearities into fractional subdiffusive transport.
  • Uncovered a significant interaction between nonlinearities and non-Markovian transport, leading to fractional derivative combinations.
  • Demonstrated that in the long-time limit, equations simplify, facilitating the study of aggregation phenomena.

Conclusions:

  • Volume filling can effectively prevent 'anomalous aggregation' in subdiffusive systems, especially those with spatially varying anomalous exponents.
  • The derived simplified equations offer a tractable method for studying aggregation phenomena in complex biological transport.
  • This work provides a novel approach to modeling collective behaviors in populations exhibiting anomalous transport.
