The modeling and analysis of calcium dynamics in neuron cell becomes necessary for deeper understanding of the processes involved. A mathematical model has been developed for cylindrical shaped neuron cell by incorporating physiological parameters like buffer, diffusion coefficient, and association rate. Appropriate initial and boundary conditions have been framed. The closed form solution has been developed in terms of modified Bessel function. A computer program has been developed in MATLAB 7.11 for the whole approach.}, journal = {International Journal of Mathematical and Computational Sciences}, volume = {5}, number = {8}, year = {2011}, pages = {1375 - 1378}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/12239}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/56}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 56, 2011}, }
