ON SOME TOPOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF THE SYSTEMS OF COMPARTMENTS.

Compartment systems are often used as models for tracer and drug kinetics. The structure of a compartment system is here analyzed by means of theory of graphs methods. In particular the precursor-successor relationship between any two compartments is classified according to the structure of the graph of the system and to the values of the elements of the matrix associated with it.
