Figure 3

Comparison of the capillary permeability limited model prediction (solid line) and the experimental data (squares) for ceftriaxone venous plasma concentrations. The four panels correspond to inputs of 0.15, 0.5, 1.5 and 3.0 grams given as a 5 minute constant IV infusion. Because the protein binding saturates, the effective capillary permeability limitation (fclear) decreases as the concentration increases.
