    Notes: Abstract A dispersion model of hepatic elimination, based on the residence time distribution of blood elements within the liver, is presented. The general rate equations appropriate for describing the hepatic output concentration of a tracer solute are derived. Particular consideration is given to events following a bolus input dose of a tracer. The model is shown to be compatible with the known hepatic architecture and hepatic physiology. The model has been fitted to hepatic outflow data for red blood cells, albumin, and other noneliminated solutes. The experimental data suggest a high degree of dispersion of blood elements within the liver. The model has also been used to evaluate the effects of changes in enzyme activity, hepatic cell permeability, blood flow, and protein binding on the outflow concentration vs. time profiles of solutes.

    Notes: Abstract The dispersion model of hepatic elimination is based on the distribution of residence times of blood elements within the liver. The model has two asymptotic solutions corresponding to the “wellstirred” model (complete mixing of blood elements) and the “parallel-tube” model (no variation in residence times of blood elements). The steady-state form of the dispersion model relevant to pharmacokinetic analysis is developed and explored with respect to changes in blood flow, in binding within blood, and in hepatocellular enzyme activity. Literature data are used to evaluate discrepancies among the predictions of the dispersion, well-stirred, and tube models. It is concluded that the dispersion model is consistent-with the data. The limitations of steady-state perfusion experiments to estimate the residence time distribution of blood elements within the liver are considered.

    Notes: Abstract Two commonly used models of hepatic drug clearance are examined. The “well-stirred” model (model I) views the liver as a well-stirred compartment with concentration of drug in the liver in equilibrium with that in the emergent blood. The “parallel tube” model (model II) regards the liver as a series of parallel tubes with enzymes distributed evenly around the tubes and the concentration of drug declines along the length of the tube. Both models are examined under steady-state considerations in the absence of diffusional limitations (cell membranes do not limit the movement of drug molecules). Equations involving the determinants of hepatic drug clearance (hepatic blood flow, fraction of drug in blood unbound, and the hepatocellular enzymatic activity) and various pharmacokinetic parameters are derived. Similarities and differences between the models are explored. Although both models predict similar hepatic drug clearances under a variety of conditions, marked differences between them become apparent in their predictions of the influence of changes in the determinants of drug clearance on various pharmacokinetic parameters.
