REZUMAT: Metode iterative \U{21b}iior monotone pentru problema cu valori inițiale relative la o ecuație integrală din biomatematică. În lucrare este prezentată o metodă constructivă de rezolvare a problemei (1)-(2) și în ipotezele (i)-(iv) presupunând că funcția (f(t,x)) este monotonă și în raport cu (x). Un aspect nou conținut și în acest articol îl constituie adaptarea metodei iterațiilor monotone la cazul operatorilor anti-izotoni, și în particular, la cazul când (f(t,x)) este o funcție necrescătoare și în (x).
