Table 3: Pharmacokinetic parameters of plasma metoclopramide in gene deletion 1 (GD1), gene deletion 2 (GD2) and wild –type (WT) cattle after IV administration of metoclopramide at 0.4 mg/kg (mean ± standard deviation (SD), n=6). aVd: Volume of the central compartment. bK12 and K21: Transfer constant from central (1) to peripheral (2) and from 2 to 1, respectively. cK13 and K31: Transfer constant from central (1) to deep peripheral (3) and from 3 to 1, respectively. dAUC0-inf: Estimated area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to infinity. eCl: Total body clearance. fAUMC: Area under the first moment curve. gMRT: Mean residence time. hVdss: Volume of distribution at steady-state.
