Table 3.

Integrated parameters that were used to describe the average phenol red concentrations along the different compartments in Model 10. The parameters assigned with ‘*’ are the parameters that were subject of optimization to estimate their value for each individual dataset.

Parameter Meaning Value Reference
*t1/2stm_antrum Half-life of emptying of the antrum (min) 13 Optimized by curve fitting
*t1/2stm_body Half-life of emptying of the body (min) 276 Optimized by curve fitting
*t1/2stm_bypass Half-life of emptying from gastric bypass compartment (min) 13 Optimized by curve fitting
*t1/2_duo Duodenal half-life of emptying (min) 10.8 Optimized by curve fitting
*t1/2_jej Jejunal half-life of emptying (min) 25.6 Optimized by curve fitting
