Abstract A mathematical model is presented which provides analytical solutions for the uptake regulation and pulmonary elimination of inert vapours and gases. The results obtained are in extremely good agreement with both experimental data and the exact numerical solutions usually suggested in the literature. In particular, some analytical solutions to correlate the behaviour of the gas concentration in the tissues with the various physiological parameters during the uptake regulation and desorption have been obtained.
