TABLE 3

Pharmacokinetic parameters of HbV after administration of 125I- and 3H-HbV in mice and rats

All mice and rats received a single injection of 125I-HbV or 3H-HbV at a dose of 1400 mg of Hb/kg containing 5% rHSA. At each time after the injection of 125I-HbV or 3H-HbV, a blood sample was collected from the inferior vena cava (mice) or from the tail vein (rats), and plasma was obtained. Each parameter was calculated by MULTI using a two-compartment model. Values are mean ± S .D. (n = 3–6).
