Kinetic interpretation of log-logistic dose-time response curves

Abstract A Hill-type time-response curve was derived using a single-step chemical kinetics approximation. The rate expression for the transformation is a differential equation that provides an interpolation formula between the logistic growth curve and second order kinetics. The solution is equivale...

Kinetic interpretation of log-logistic dose-time response curves
description Abstract A Hill-type time-response curve was derived using a single-step chemical kinetics approximation.

This expression was extended to a full dose-time-response equation by postulating a concentration dependence for the rate constant.
