โฆ Synopsis
The relationship between the mean residence time after oral dosing or any other non-instantaneous mode of administration (MRT,,) was explored by a series of computer simultations. MRT,, was calculated from the ratio of AUMC to A U C (where A U C and A U M C are the zeroth and first statistical moments, respectively, of the drug concentration-time curve). A continuous linear relationship between MRT,, and lik, or llko was observed. In the 'flip-flop' case where k , < K (where K is the elimination rate constant), the extrapolation from t* to infinity (where t* is the last observed plasma concentration) should be done using k , instead of K . If K is used, underestimated values of MRT,, will be obtained. The findings from this investigation have practical application in the design and pharmacokinetic evaluation of novel sustained-release dosage forms.

Purpose: The goal of this study was to develop a new method, based on robust pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters, for determining t max (time of peak plasma concentration) and the magnitude of difference between the absorption (k a ) and elimination (k) rate constants in the one compartment body model w
## Abstract ## Objective Although obesity is widely accepted as a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis, it is not clear whether individual components of body composition, such as the mass and distribution of muscle and fat, are associated with development of the disease. This study examined the eff

A major goal of the pharmaceutical scientist is "nding a relationship between an in vitro characteristic of an oral dosage form and its in vivo performance. One such relationship between drug dissolution (or absorption) in vivo and that in vitro is known as an &in vitro}in vivo correlation' (IVIVC)
