Dogs (n = 4/group) were given a single intravenous injection of SSG (40 mg of SbV/kg) or SSG-NIV (20 or 40 mg of SbV /kg). The values are means ± SDs. Abbreviations: k12 and k21, intercompartmental transfer rate constants; t1/2α, distribution phase half-life; t1/2β, elimination phase half-life; AUC0-∞, area under the plasma concentration-time curve projected to infinity; Vc, volume of distribution of the central compartment; VSS = steady-state volume of distribution; CL, total body clearance; MRT0-∞, mean residence time projected to infinity.
