The aim of the current study was to compare the predictive performance of a mechanistically based model and an empirical artificial neural network (ANN) model to describe the relationship between the tissue-to-unbound plasma concentration... more
A study has been made to determine the validities of certain theoretical relationships, based on the law of mass action, which predict the influence of pH, electrolyte concentration, and additives such as alcohol on solubilities of weakly... more
