get_wetmore_oral_equiv: Get Literature Oral Equivalent Dose (deprecated).

Description

This function is included for backward compatibility. It calls get_lit_oral_equiv which converts a chemical plasma concetration to an oral equivalent dose using the values from the Wetmore et al. (2012) and (2013) publications and other literature.

Usage

get_wetmore_oral_equiv(
  conc,
  chem.name = NULL,
  chem.cas = NULL,
  suppress.messages = FALSE,
  which.quantile = 0.95,
  species = "Human",
  input.units = "uM",
  output.units = "mg",
  clearance.assay.conc = NULL,
  ...
)

Value

Equivalent dose in specified units, default of mg/kg BW/day.

Arguments

conc

Bioactive in vitro concentration in units of specified input.units, default of uM.

chem.name

Either the chemical name or the CAS number must be specified.

chem.cas

Either the CAS number or the chemical name must be specified.

suppress.messages

Suppress output messages.

which.quantile

Which quantile from the SimCYP Monte Carlo simulation is requested. Can be a vector. Papers include 0.05, 0.5, and 0.95 for humans and 0.5 for rats.

species

Species desired (either "Rat" or default "Human").

input.units

Units of given concentration, default of uM but can also be mg/L.

output.units

Units of dose, default of 'mg' for mg/kg BW/ day or 'mol' for mol/ kg BW/ day.

clearance.assay.conc

Concentration of chemical used in measureing intrinsic clearance data, 1 or 10 uM.

...

Additional parameters passed to get_lit_css.
