Calculate the excretion rate over the interval

Calculate the excretion rate over the interval

Usage

pk.calc.erint(ae, start, end)

Arguments

ae

The amount excreted during the interval (see pk.calc.ae())

start

The start time of the interval

end

The end time of the interval

Value

The excretion rate during the interval

Details

The excretion rate is the amount recovered during the interval divided by the duration of the interval, ae/(end - start). It uses the interval rather than the sum of the collection durations, so a gap between collections lowers the rate. An interval ending at infinity has no duration to divide by and gives NA.
