The steady uptake kinetics is modelled by a Michaelis-Menten form and for this case it proved that the resulting boundary value problem admits a unique solution for those parameter ranges typical of related physiological experiments. This solution is compared with Otto Warburg's hyperoxia model and with a hypoxia model. Useful and easily computed approximations are derived for the minimum oxygen supply across the tissue and some numerical solutions of the governing equations are discussed.en1095-8541Journal of theoretical biology19971119127Biowissenschaften, BiologieOxygen diffusion in tissue preparations with Michaelis-Menten kineticsJournal Article10.1006/jtbi.1996.02989093557Other
