protein binding model
Hi,
I am trying to include the protein binding in my model and to estimate the
unbound plasma concentration, using the total plasma concentration. The drug
was taken orally.
It seems that I can write the differential equations as below. A(2) and
A(3) represent the unbound and bound amount, respectively.
DADT(1)= -KA*A(1)
DADT(2)= KA*A(1) – k23*A(2)*(Bmax-A(3))+k32*A(3)-k*A(2)
DADT(3)= k23*A(2)*(Bmax-A(3))-k32*A(3)
My question is how could I transfer the amount in compartment 3 [A(3)] into
concentration since my observation is the sum of the concentration in
compartment 2 and 3.
Many thanks in advance.
