The WB-PBPK model for caspofungin was constructed according to the scheme of 14 tissue compartments of the disposition model. Simulations were based on caspofungin physicochemical and the vitro data (Table 2). Tissue distribution was predicted using established tissue composition equations. Hepatic and renal caspofungin clearances were calculated by the PKplus model‚ as described in the method section. The results are shown in Table 3. The observed and WB-PBPK model simulated mean plasma concentration-time

Interconnection Reference Model or OSI Reference Model or OSI Model is essentially a conceptual description for layered communications and computer network protocol design. It was created as part of the Open Systems Interconnection or OSI initiative. In its most fundamental form‚ it separates network architecture into seven distinct layers: the Application‚ Presentation‚ Session‚ Transport‚ Network‚ Data-Link‚ and Physical Layers. As a result it is frequently referred to as the OSI Seven Layer Model. A layer is
