)

Arguments

chem.name	Either the chemical name, CAS number, or the parameters must be specified.
chem.cas	Either the chemical name, CAS number, or the parameters must be specified.
dtxsid	EPA's 'DSSTox Structure ID (https://comptox.epa.gov/dashboard) the chemical must be identified by either CAS, name, or DTXSIDs
times	Optional time sequence for specified number of days.
parameters	Chemical parameters from parameterize_1comp function, overrides chem.name and chem.cas.
days	Length of the simulation.
tsteps	The number time steps per hour.
daily.dose	Total daily dose, default is mg/kg BW.
dose	Amount of a single dose, default is mg/kg BW.
doses.per.day	Number of doses per day.
initial.values	Vector containing the initial concentrations or amounts of the chemical in specified tissues with units corresponding to output.units. Defaults are zero.
plots	Plots all outputs if true.
suppress.messages	Whether or not the output message is suppressed.
species	Species desired (either "Rat", "Rabbit", "Dog", or default "Human").
iv.dose	Simulates a single i.v. dose if true.
input.units	Input units of interest assigned to dosing, defaults to "mg/kg" BW.
output.units	A named vector of output units expected for the model results. Default, NULL, returns model results in units specified in the 'modelinfo' file. See table below for details.
method	Method used by integrator (deSolve).
rtol	Argument passed to integrator (deSolve).
atol	Argument passed to integrator (deSolve).
default.to.human	Substitutes missing rat values with human values if true.
recalc.blood2plasma	Whether or not to recalculate the blood:plasma chemical concentrationr ratio
recalc.clearance	Whether or not to recalculate the elimination rate.
dosing.matrix	Vector of dosing times or a matrix consisting of two columns or rows named "dose" and "time" containing the time and amount, in mg/kg BW by default, of each dose.
adjusted.Funbound.plasma	Uses adjusted Funbound.plasma when set to TRUE along with volume of distribution calculated with this value.
regression	Whether or not to use the regressions in calculating partition coefficients in volume of distribution calculation.
restrictive.clearance	In calculating elimination rate, protein binding is not taken into account (set to 1) in liver clearance if FALSE.
minimum.Funbound.plasma	Monte Carlo draws less than this value are set equal to this value (default is 0.0001 – half the lowest measured Fup in our dataset).
monitor.vars	Which variables are returned as a function of time. Defaults value of NULL provides "Agutlumen", "Ccompartment", "Ametabolized", "AUC"
...	Additional arguments passed to the integrator.

Details

Note that the timescales for the model parameters have units of hours while the model output is in days.

Default value of NULL for doses.per.day solves for a single dose.

When species is specified as rabbit, dog, or mouse, the function uses the appropriate physiological data(volumes and flows) but substitutes human fraction unbound, partition coefficients, and intrinsic hepatic clearance.

AUC is area under plasma concentration curve.

Model Figure

Value

A matrix with a column for time(in days) and a column for the compartment and the area under the curve (concentration only).

Examples

solve_1comp(chem.name='Bisphenol-A', days=1)

# By storing the model parameters in a vector first, you can potentially
# edit them before using the model:
params <- parameterize_1comp(chem.cas="80-05-7")
solve_1comp(parameters=params, days=1)

head(solve_1comp(chem.name="Terbufos", daily.dose=NULL, dose=1, days=1))
head(solve_1comp(chem.name="Terbufos", daily.dose=NULL,
                 dose=1,days=1, iv.dose=TRUE))

# A dose matrix specifies times and magnitudes of doses:
dm <- matrix(c(0,1,2,5,5,5),nrow=3)
colnames(dm) <- c("time","dose")
solve_1comp(chem.name="Methenamine", dosing.matrix=dm,
            days=2.5, dose=NULL,daily.dose=NULL)

solve_1comp(chem.name="Besonprodil", daily.dose=1, dose=NULL,
            days=2.5, doses.per.day=4)
