  • * Rat data, relative; monkey data, %ID/g.

  • Rat data were scaled by factor of 0.0425. Monkey data were scaled to organ mass of 2.5 g.

  • Summation of trapezoidal integration up to 352 min gives 1.55 × 10−3 h; analytic integration of exponential fit to monkey data after 352 min gives 2.3 × 10−4 h, for total residence time of 1.78 × 10−3 h.
