I just released Biokmod 3.3 (standard). It can be downloaded from
http://web.usal.es/guillermo/biokmod

Also, there are a webMathematica application of Biokmod called
BiokmodWeb (available in
http://www3.enusa.es/webMathematica/Public/biokmod.html ). It runs on
line, you don't need to download any thing in your computer.  It
contains some of the main features of the Mathematica Tool Biokmod


Biokmod include

I.- Functions for solving compartmental models (with application in
biokinetic, pharmacokinetic, internal dosimetry and nuclear medicine)

I.1) The user can himself define compartmental models obtaining the
differential equations, their solutions, graphic representation and Us
(disintegrations).
I.2) Options for fitting coefficients in linear differential equations
I.3) Multiresponse and multiparameters fitting.

II.- Features to evaluate the intake of radioactive particles in the
human body according ICRP Models

II.1) The respiratory tract model (according ICRP 66) and the current
ICRP models are solved. Acute, Chronic, Continuous (variable in the
time), Multi-Acute and random intakes can be used.

II.2) Radioactive intake by injection, ingestion and inhalation in the
human body according ICRP models
II.3) Analytical and numeric solutions and the graphic representations
are given including the Intake Retention Fractions (IRF) their
analytical expressions (the Intake Retention Functions or RF)
II.4) Disintegrations (Us) over at time t -choose by user- are computed
analytically (better than using mean residence time).

III.5) Random intakes an their uncertainties can be evaluated

III.6)  Bioassays data fitting

Some tutorials, a complete help and same articles about Biokmod are
included


I will appreciate any comments.
