weightCYPsum {dfped}R Documentation

Proportion of the molecule metabolised by the CYPs for a child according to age.

Description

Proportion of the molecule metabolised by the CYPs. A weighted sum is computed. For each CYP, the proportion metabolised in adults is multiplied with the fraction of CYP (KCYP) available for a child according to age.

Usage

weightCYPsum(age, percCYP)

Arguments

age

The age of child.

percCYP

Dataframe giving the percentage of the molecule metabolised for each cytochrome in adults. Dataframe with two column - column 1: CYP name, column 2: percentage of the molecule metabolised.
