Abstract
This paper gives a precise definition of compartment and shows that even wh
en a compartmental model is not exactly identifiable, a range of its pharma
cokinetic parameters can be determined. It is thus better to know approxima
te values of clearly defined parameters than exact values of quantities wit
h no physical or physiological content. (C) 1999 Academic Press.
