Scheme of the compartmental final model used for the modelling of both Uf and bound Pt. Administration of PIPC was performed in the IP compartment and Uf Pt was transferred to the central (serum) compartment following IP clearance IPCL. Ultrafiltered Pt can change between the central and peripheral compartments and be eliminated following central clearance (CL). Ultrafiltered Pt can also bind to protein following a Michealis–Menten model (Kmax, VM) and thereafter be eliminated (kB).
