Exploring fundamental engineering and life science principles to uncover key concepts in biomedical engineering transport phenomena, this volume begins with a review of the basics of thermodynamics. It then examines the physical properties of body fluids and the cell membrane before moving on to topics such as properties of blood, solute transport, pharmacokinetic analysis, extracorporeal devices, tissue engineering, and bioartificial organs. Each chapter ends with problems to help clarify the material.
