Numbers in parentheses are % of the total number of observations (n = 33); method III, n = 27
Model I = sigmoidal maturation (age and body weight); model II = sigmoidal (weight vs. clearance); model III = body weight-dependent allometric exponent model; model IV = age-dependent allometric exponent model; model V = semi-physiological; model VI = allometric model
