Pharmacokinetic Bioanalysis Experiments Design and Exploration
Overview
Automate pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic bioanalytical procedures based on best practices and regulatory recommendations. The package impose regulatory constrains and sanity checking for common bioanalytical procedures. Additionally, 'PKbioanalysis' provides a relational infrastructure for plate management and injection sequence.
- Bioanalytical
groupadding allowing more systematic injection sequence creation. - Support for plate generation from
study_appGUI - plate generation undo support
- tree visualization for plate
- Support for analytical blanks
- Support for study registration
- Injection sequence ending now has specific pattern of letter and number, for instance A2 means location A and repeated 2nd time.
- Enhanced naming convention for reinjections and replicates.
- AI-assisted chromatogram integration and commenting.
- PKmerge to generate final PK datasets.
- Export PK profiles to NONMEM format along with codebook.
