Back-calculates the Red Blood Cell to Unbound Plasma Partition Coefficient
Given and observed ratio of chemial concentration in blood to plasma, this function calculates a Red Blood Cell to unbound plasma (Krbc2pu) partition coefficient that would be consistent with that observation.
calc_krbc2pu( Rb2p, Funbound.plasma, hematocrit = NULL, default.to.human = FALSE, species = "Human", suppress.messages = TRUE )
Rb2p |
The chemical blood:plasma concentration ratop |
Funbound.plasma |
The free fraction of chemical in the presence of plasma protein Rblood2plasma. |
hematocrit |
Overwrites default hematocrit value in calculating Rblood2plasma. |
default.to.human |
Substitutes missing animal values with human values if true. |
species |
Species desired (either "Rat", "Rabbit", "Dog", "Mouse", or default "Human"). |
suppress.messages |
Determine whether to display certain usage feedback. |
The red blood cell to unbound chemical in plasma partition coefficient.
