OSPS Version 11 → PBPK-QSP Modeling with MoBi®

Maternal-Fetal PBPK (M04-11)


Description
In this course, you will learn how to create a PBPK model of Metronidazole, an antibiotic against anerobic bacteria. You will create
• a non-pregnant individual
• a non-pregnant population
• a pregnant population, and
• a PBPK model of Metronidazole.
The exercises are based on the published PBPK model of Metronidazole:
• Dallmann et al. 2018, Clin Pharmacokinet. 57(6): 749-768.
