Histochemical localization of glucose residues in the human term placenta.

abstract：:We present a mathematical model for maternal blood flow in a placental circulatory unit (a placentone), describing flow of maternal blood via Darcy's law and steady advective transport of a dissolved nutrient. The method of images and computational integration along streamlines are employed to find flow and solute con...
