The mean PK model was developed using a typical European individual. Unknown parameters were identified using the Parameter Identification module provided in PK-Sim®. Structural model selection was mainly guided by visual inspection of the resulting description of data and biological plausibility. diff --git a/evaluation/Input/Content/Section2.2_Data_used.md b/evaluation/Input/Content/Section2.2_Data_used.md index 81625fe..6257ecf 100644 --- a/evaluation/Input/Content/Section2.2_Data_used.md +++ b/evaluation/Input/Content/Section2.2_Data_used.md @@ -1,19 +1,19 @@ -### 2.2.1 In vitro / physico-chemical data +### 2.2.1 In vitro / physicochemical data A literature search was performed to collect available information on physicochemical properties of vancomycin.
