  1. Note: dot notation was used for differentiation (for example, Ċ= d C d t ). C1 and C2, creatinine concentrations for compartments 1 and 2, respectively. v c and v t , time-varying volumes; V1 and V2, creatinine volumes for compartments 1 and 2, respectively. V10 and V2e 0, time zero compartment volumes.
