Table summarizing the values and uncertainties found in the fit of the simulated data with Vtcag=0.06, Vtcan=0.56, Vxg=Vxn=0.57 and Vnt=0.17 μmol/g per minute, under the different constraints (Cases 1 to 4) presented in Materials and methods. To enable a direct comparison between the Cases 1 to 2 and Cases 3 to 4, the residual sum of squares (RSS) was calculated starting from the second minute. The uncertainties were evaluated with Monte-Carlo simulations (500 artificial data).
