Dear Users, I hope that someone can suggest a paper or method for addressin=
g an issue with which I am grappling.
I am working on a mouse toxicokinetic study that has two basic cohorts. On=
e received a bolus gavage dose of known dose and time. The other was dosed=
by drug-laden chose. The chow and thus drug ingested was measured, usuall=
y daily in the morning, but sometimes after 2-3 days. The "daily dose" of =
chow was averaged over the 12 hours of the daily dark period in which the a=
nimals were considered to be eating their chow. 2-3 blood samples were obt=
ained from each animal, and the basic 2 compartmental SEAM IMP method is co=
nverging well on the gavage-only data.
Can the group suggest how to address the uncertainty in the rate of dosing =
over the 12 hour dark period? Of additional concern, hard to deal with, is=
the potential that nightly chose ingestion varied over a series of 1-3 day=
s. I don't think that the 12 August 2020 thread on a random effect on ALAG=
applies to this case.
Many thanks.
