Abstract
Two mathematical models of an amperometric bienzyme biosensor are analysed digitally. The models hold different boundary conditions describing the singularity of the electrode (transducer). The influence of the initial and boundary conditions on the biosensors action at different sets of parameters is analysed.
The digital simulation at the transient and steady-state conditions was carried out by using finite difference technique. The comparison of the simulation results revealed that some of the calculated parameters, i.e. response and sensitivity is the same, while the others, i.e. half-time of the steady-state is significantly different for distinct models.

Abstract
A model of the moisture diffusion in wood under isothermal conditions taking into consideration coating of the surface of a specimen is presented in a 2-D-in-space formulation. A reliability of a corresponding 1-D model is investigated for a simulation of moisture movement in 2-D medium. This paper presents a technique to determine the width as well as the degree of edges coating of the specimen making the 1-D model relevant for 2-D medium. This technique bases on the computer simulation of 2-D moisture diffusion to estimate the reliability of the corresponding 1-D model. In the technique, approximate coefficients of the diffusion and surface emission may be employed if accurate values of these coefficients are unknown.
