The immobilization of whole cells: Engineering principles
TL;DR: Techniques which have been used to immobilize whole cells include adsorption, aggregation, confinement and entrapment, and many more have been proposed.

Model of oxygen transport limitations in hollow fiber bioreactors.
TL;DR: Despite considerable uncertainty in parameters and nonidealities in hollow fiber geometry, the cell distribution correlated well with the modeling results, and design criteria such as fiber dimensions and spacing, reactor lengths, and recycle flow rates can be selected using these plots.

An analytical study of heat and mass transfer through a parallel-plate channel with recycle
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of recycling at the ends on the heat and mass transfer through a parallel-plate channel with uniform wall temperature were studied by an orthogonal expansion technique.

Oxygen transfer in a diffusion-limited hollow fiber bioartificial liver.
TL;DR: The results suggest that liver cell lines possessing low rates of oxygen consumption could be maintained if membranes of sufficiently high oxygen permeability are used, and the axial-flow hollow fiber cartridge is thus an inappropriate design for use as a bioartificial liver with primary hepatocytes.

Conjugated Graetz Problems. I : General Formalism and a Class of Solid-Fluid Problems
TL;DR: In this article, a general formalism is presented for the analysis of conjugated Graetz problems, employing a matrix differential operator with respect to the radial variable and following the decomposition technique.

Analyses of mass transfer in hemodialyzers for laminar blood flow and homogeneous dialysate
TL;DR: Theoretical analyses of mass transfer in hemodialyzers which contain flowing blood and dialysate streams separated by a semi-permeable membrane are presented in this paper, where solutions are obtained in terms of well-known functions.

Mass transfer between capillary blood and tissues
TL;DR: In this paper, the Krogh cylinder type of model for capillary-tissue mass transfer is solved analytically as a conjugated boundary value problem, which avoids recourse to the use of arbitrary interphase mass transfer coefficients.
