Models a tissue cylinder consisting of two regions: plasma, and interstitial fluid. Fit to Crone 1963 data.

Description

These partial differential equations model a "tissue cylinder" consisting of two regions. The two regions are capillary plasma, p, and interstitial fluid, isf. There is a diffusional path from plasma to the isf. A consumption term is included but is set to zero here. Model is fit to Crone 1963 data for sucrose uptake into hind leg of a dog and inulin uptake into the kidney. This paper was one of the first attempts at characterizing capilliary permeability in various organs and regions of the body. Vascular reference is Evans' Blue Dye.

Figure: Sucrose (red) and Vascular reference (blue) outflow curves fitted to Crone 1963 figure 7 data for canine hind leg. The permeability of the vascular wall can be calculated from this data. The Crone 1963 paper calculates the permeability coefficients for different organs and regions revealing large differences in capillary permeability.
