+<p>This is just a very simple vignette showing how to fit a degradation model for a parent compound with one transformation product using <code>mkin</code>. After loading the library we look at the data. We have observed concentrations in the column named <code>value</code> at the times specified in column <code>time</code> for the two observed variables named <code>parent</code> and <code>m1</code>.</p>

+<p>Next we specify the degradation model: The parent compound degrades with simple first-order kinetics (SFO) to one metabolite named m1, which also degrades with SFO kinetics.</p>
+<p>The call to mkinmod returns a degradation model. The differential equations represented in R code can be found in the character vector <code>$diffs</code> of the <code>mkinmod</code> object. If a C compiler (gcc) is installed and functional, the differential equation model will be compiled from auto-generated C code.</p>

+<p>Here we use the assumptions of simple first order (SFO), the case of declining rate constant over time (FOMC) and the case of two different phases of the kinetics (DFOP). For a more detailed discussion of the models, please see the FOCUS kinetics report.</p>
+<p>Since mkin version 0.9-32 (July 2014), we can use shorthand notation like <code>"SFO"</code> for parent only degradation models. The following two lines fit the model and produce the summary report of the model fit. This covers the numerical analysis given in the FOCUS report.</p>

+<p>We get a warning that the default optimisation algorithm <code>Port</code> did not converge, which is an indication that the model is overparameterised, <em>i.e.</em> contains too many parameters that are ill-defined as a consequence.</p>
+<p>And in fact, due to the higher number of parameters, and the lower number of degrees of freedom of the fit, the <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error level is actually higher for the FOMC model (3.6%) than for the SFO model (3.4%). Additionally, the parameters <code>log_alpha</code> and <code>log_beta</code> internally fitted in the model have excessive confidence intervals, that span more than 25 orders of magnitude (!) when backtransformed to the scale of <code>alpha</code> and <code>beta</code>. Also, the t-test for significant difference from zero does not indicate such a significant difference, with p-values greater than 0.1, and finally, the parameter correlation of <code>log_alpha</code> and <code>log_beta</code> is 1.000, clearly indicating that the model is overparameterised.</p>
+<p>The <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error levels reported in Appendix 3 and Appendix 7 to the FOCUS kinetics report are rounded to integer percentages and partly deviate by one percentage point from the results calculated by mkin. The reason for this is not known. However, mkin gives the same <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error levels as the kinfit package and the calculation routines of the kinfit package have been extensively compared to the results obtained by the KinGUI software, as documented in the kinfit package vignette. KinGUI was the first widely used standard package in this field. Also, the calculation of <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error levels was compared with KinGUII, CAKE and DegKin manager in a project sponsored by the German Umweltbundesamt <span class="citation">(Ranke 2014)</span>.</p>

+<p>The <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error level of 14% suggests that the model does not fit very well. This is also obvious from the plots of the fit, in which we have included the residual plot.</p>
+<p>In the FOCUS kinetics report, it is stated that there is no apparent systematic error observed from the residual plot up to the measured DT90 (approximately at day 5), and there is an underestimation beyond that point.</p>
+<p>We may add that it is difficult to judge the random nature of the residuals just from the three samplings at days 0, 1 and 3. Also, it is not clear <em>a priori</em> why a consistent underestimation after the approximate DT90 should be irrelevant. However, this can be rationalised by the fact that the FOCUS fate models generally only implement SFO kinetics.</p>

+<p>Here, a look to the model plot, the confidence intervals of the parameters and the correlation matrix suggest that the parameter estimates are reliable, and the DFOP model can be used as the best-fit model based on the <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error level criterion for laboratory data L3.</p>
+<p>This is also an example where the standard t-test for the parameter <code>g_ilr</code> is misleading, as it tests for a significant difference from zero. In this case, zero appears to be the correct value for this parameter, and the confidence interval for the backtransformed parameter <code>g</code> is quite narrow.</p>

+<p>In the regulatory evaluation of chemical substances like plant protection products (pesticides), biocides and other chemicals, degradation data play an important role. For the evaluation of pesticide degradation experiments, detailed guidance has been developed, based on nonlinear optimisation. The <code>R</code> add-on package <code>mkin</code> implements fitting some of the models recommended in this guidance from within R and calculates some statistical measures for data series within one or more compartments, for parent and metabolites.</p>

+<a href="#background" class="anchor"></a>Background</h1>
+<p>Many approaches are possible regarding the evaluation of chemical degradation data.</p>
+<p>The <code>mkin</code> package <span class="citation">(Ranke 2019)</span> implements the approach recommended in the kinetics report provided by the FOrum for Co-ordination of pesticide fate models and their USe <span class="citation">(FOCUS Work Group on Degradation Kinetics 2006, 2014)</span> for simple decline data series, data series with transformation products, commonly termed metabolites, and for data series for more than one compartment. It is also possible to include back reactions, so equilibrium reactions and equilibrium partitioning can be specified, although this oftentimes leads to an overparameterisation of the model.</p>
+<p>When the first <code>mkin</code> code was published in 2010, the most commonly used tools for fitting more complex kinetic degradation models to experimental data were KinGUI <span class="citation">(Schäfer et al. 2007)</span>, a MATLAB based tool with a graphical user interface that was specifically tailored to the task and included some output as proposed by the FOCUS Kinetics Workgroup, and ModelMaker, a general purpose compartment based tool providing infrastructure for fitting dynamic simulation models based on differential equations to data.</p>
+<p>The code was first uploaded to the BerliOS platform. When this was taken down, the version control history was imported into the R-Forge site (see <em>e.g.</em> <a href="http://cgit.jrwb.de/mkin/commit/?id=30cbb4092f6d2d3beff5800603374a0d009ad770">the initial commit on 11 May 2010</a>), where the code is still occasionally updated.</p>
+<p>At that time, the R package <code>FME</code> (Flexible Modelling Environment) <span class="citation">(Soetaert and Petzoldt 2010)</span> was already available, and provided a good basis for developing a package specifically tailored to the task. The remaining challenge was to make it as easy as possible for the users (including the author of this vignette) to specify the system of differential equations and to include the output requested by the FOCUS guidance, such as the relative standard deviation that has to be assumed for the residuals, such that the <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> goodness-of-fit test as defined by the FOCUS kinetics workgroup would pass using an significance level <span class="math inline">\(\alpha\)</span> of 0.05. This relative error, expressed as a percentage, is often termed <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error level or similar.</p>
+<p>Also, <code>mkin</code> introduced using analytical solutions for parent only kinetics for improved optimization speed. Later, Eigenvalue based solutions were introduced to <code>mkin</code> for the case of linear differential equations (<em>i.e.</em> where the FOMC or DFOP models were not used for the parent compound), greatly improving the optimization speed for these cases. This, however, has become somehow obsolete, as the use of compiled code described below gives even smaller execution times.</p>
+<p>The possibility to specify back-reactions and a biphasic model (SFORB) for metabolites were present in <code>mkin</code> from the very beginning.</p>
+<div id="derived-software-tools" class="section level2">
+<h2 class="hasAnchor">
+<a href="#derived-software-tools" class="anchor"></a>Derived software tools</h2>
+<p>Soon after the publication of <code>mkin</code>, two derived tools were published, namely KinGUII (available from Bayer Crop Science) and CAKE (commissioned to Tessella by Syngenta), which added a graphical user interface (GUI), and added fitting by iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) and characterisation of likely parameter distributions by Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling.</p>
+<p>CAKE focuses on a smooth use experience, sacrificing some flexibility in the model definition, originally allowing only two primary metabolites in parallel. The current version 3.3 of CAKE release in March 2016 uses a basic scheme for up to six metabolites in a flexible arrangement, but does not support back-reactions (non-instantaneous equilibria) or biphasic kinetics for metabolites.</p>
+<p>KinGUI offers an even more flexible widget for specifying complex kinetic models. Back-reactions (non-instantaneous equilibria) were supported early on, but until 2014, only simple first-order models could be specified for transformation products. Starting with KinGUII version 2.1, biphasic modelling of metabolites was also available in KinGUII.</p>
+<p>A further graphical user interface (GUI) that has recently been brought to a decent degree of maturity is the browser based GUI named <code>gmkin</code>. Please see its <a href="https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/gmkin">documentation page</a> and <a href="https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/gmkin/articles/gmkin_manual.html">manual</a> for further information.</p>
+<p>A comparison of scope, usability and numerical results obtained with these tools has been recently been published by <span class="citation">Ranke, Wöltjen, and Meinecke (2018)</span>.</p>
+</div>
+<div id="recent-developments" class="section level2">
+<h2 class="hasAnchor">
+<a href="#recent-developments" class="anchor"></a>Recent developments</h2>
+<p>Currently (July 2019), the main features available in <code>mkin</code> which are not present in KinGUII or CAKE, are the speed increase by using compiled code when a compiler is present, parallel model fitting on multicore machines using the <code>mmkin</code> function, and the estimation of parameter confidence intervals based on transformed parameters.</p>
+<p>In addition, the possibility to use two alternative error models to constant variance have been integrated. The variance by variable error model introduced by <span class="citation">Gao et al. (2011)</span> has been available via an iteratively reweighted least squares (IRLS) procedure since mkin <a href="https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/mkin/news/index.html#mkin-0-9-22-2013-10-26">version 0.9-22</a>. With <a href="https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/mkin/news/index.html#mkin-0-9-49-5-2019-07-04">release 0.9.49.5</a>, the IRLS algorithm has been replaced by direct or step-wise maximisation of the likelihood function, which makes it possible not only to fit the variance by variable error model but also a <a href="https://pkgdown.jrwb.de/mkin/reference/sigma_twocomp.html">two-component error model</a> inspired by error models developed in analytical chemistry.</p>

+<div id="internal-parameter-transformations" class="section level1">
+<h1 class="hasAnchor">
+<a href="#internal-parameter-transformations" class="anchor"></a>Internal parameter transformations</h1>
+<p>For rate constants, the log transformation is used, as proposed by Bates and Watts <span class="citation">(1988, 77, 149)</span>. Approximate intervals are constructed for the transformed rate constants <span class="citation">(compare Bates and Watts 1988, 135)</span>, <em>i.e.</em> for their logarithms. Confidence intervals for the rate constants are then obtained using the appropriate backtransformation using the exponential function.</p>
+<p>In the first version of <code>mkin</code> allowing for specifying models using formation fractions, a home-made reparameterisation was used in order to ensure that the sum of formation fractions would not exceed unity.</p>
+<p>This method is still used in the current version of KinGUII (v2.1 from April 2014), with a modification that allows for fixing the pathway to sink to zero. CAKE uses penalties in the objective function in order to enforce this constraint.</p>
+<p>In 2012, an alternative reparameterisation of the formation fractions was proposed together with René Lehmann <span class="citation">(Ranke and Lehmann 2012)</span>, based on isometric logratio transformation (ILR). The aim was to improve the validity of the linear approximation of the objective function during the parameter estimation procedure as well as in the subsequent calculation of parameter confidence intervals.</p>
+<div id="confidence-intervals-based-on-transformed-parameters" class="section level2">
+<h2 class="hasAnchor">
+<a href="#confidence-intervals-based-on-transformed-parameters" class="anchor"></a>Confidence intervals based on transformed parameters</h2>
+<p>In the first attempt at providing improved parameter confidence intervals introduced to <code>mkin</code> in 2013, confidence intervals obtained from FME on the transformed parameters were simply all backtransformed one by one to yield asymmetric confidence intervals for the backtransformed parameters.</p>
+<p>However, while there is a 1:1 relation between the rate constants in the model and the transformed parameters fitted in the model, the parameters obtained by the isometric logratio transformation are calculated from the set of formation fractions that quantify the paths to each of the compounds formed from a specific parent compound, and no such 1:1 relation exists.</p>
+<p>Therefore, parameter confidence intervals for formation fractions obtained with this method only appear valid for the case of a single transformation product, where only one formation fraction is to be estimated, directly corresponding to one component of the ilr transformed parameter.</p>
+<p>The confidence intervals obtained by backtransformation for the cases where a 1:1 relation between transformed and original parameter exist are considered by the author of this vignette to be more accurate than those obtained using a re-estimation of the Hessian matrix after backtransformation, as implemented in the FME package.</p>

+<h2 class="hasAnchor">
+<a href="#parameter-t-test-based-on-untransformed-parameters" class="anchor"></a>Parameter t-test based on untransformed parameters</h2>
+<p>The standard output of many nonlinear regression software packages includes the results from a test for significant difference from zero for all parameters. Such a test is also recommended to check the validity of rate constants in the FOCUS guidance <span class="citation">(FOCUS Work Group on Degradation Kinetics 2014, 96ff)</span>.</p>
+<p>It has been argued that the precondition for this test, <em>i.e.</em> normal distribution of the estimator for the parameters, is not fulfilled in the case of nonlinear regression <span class="citation">(Ranke and Lehmann 2015)</span>. However, this test is commonly used by industry, consultants and national authorities in order to decide on the reliability of parameter estimates, based on the FOCUS guidance mentioned above. Therefore, the results of this one-sided t-test are included in the summary output from <code>mkin</code>.</p>
+<p>As it is not reasonable to test for significant difference of the transformed parameters (<em>e.g.</em> <span class="math inline">\(log(k)\)</span>) from zero, the t-test is calculated based on the model definition before parameter transformation, <em>i.e.</em> in a similar way as in packages that do not apply such an internal parameter transformation. A note is included in the <code>mkin</code> output, pointing to the fact that the t-test is based on the unjustified assumption of normal distribution of the parameter estimators.</p>

+
+<p>Since version 0.9.45.1 of the ‘mkin’ package, a function for calculating time weighted average concentrations for decline kinetics (<em>i.e.</em> only for the compound applied in the experiment) is included. Strictly speaking, they are maximum moving window time weighted average concentrations, <em>i.e.</em> the maximum time weighted average concentration that can be found when moving a time window of a specified width over the decline curve.</p>
+<p>Time weighted average concentrations for the SFO, FOMC and the DFOP model are calculated using the formulas given in the FOCUS kinetics guidance <span class="citation">(FOCUS Work Group on Degradation Kinetics 2014, 251)</span>:</p>
+<p>SFO:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[c_\textrm{twa} = c_0 \frac{\left( 1 - e^{- k t} \right)}{ k t} \]</span></p>
+<p>FOMC:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[c_\textrm{twa} = c_0 \frac{\beta}{t (1 - \alpha)}
+ \left( \left(\frac{t}{\beta} + 1 \right)^{1 - \alpha} - 1 \right) \]</span></p>
+<p>DFOP:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[c_\textrm{twa} = \frac{c_0}{t} \left(
+ \frac{g}{k_1} \left( 1 - e^{- k_1 t} \right) +
+ \frac{1-g}{k_2} \left( 1 - e^{- k_2 t} \right) \right) \]</span></p>
+<p>HS for <span class="math inline">\(t &gt; t_b\)</span>:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[c_\textrm{twa} = \frac{c_0}{t} \left(
+ \frac{1}{k_1} \left( 1 - e^{- k_1 t_b} \right) +
+ \frac{e^{- k_1 t_b}}{k_2} \left( 1 - e^{- k_2 (t - t_b)} \right) \right) \]</span></p>
+<p>Often, the ratio between the time weighted average concentration <span class="math inline">\(c_\textrm{twa}\)</span> and the initial concentration <span class="math inline">\(c_0\)</span></p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[f_\textrm{twa} = \frac{c_\textrm{twa}}{c_0}\]</span></p>
+<p>is needed. This can be calculated from the fitted initial concentration <span class="math inline">\(c_0\)</span> and the time weighted average concentration <span class="math inline">\(c_\textrm{twa}\)</span>, or directly from the model parameters using the following formulas:</p>
+<p>SFO:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[f_\textrm{twa} = \frac{\left( 1 - e^{- k t} \right)}{k t} \]</span></p>
+<p>FOMC:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[f_\textrm{twa} = \frac{\beta}{t (1 - \alpha)}
+ \left( \left(\frac{t}{\beta} + 1 \right)^{1 - \alpha} - 1 \right) \]</span></p>
+<p>DFOP:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[f_\textrm{twa} = \frac{1}{t} \left(
+ \frac{g}{k_1} \left( 1 - e^{- k_1 t} \right) +
+ \frac{1-g}{k_2} \left( 1 - e^{- k_2 t} \right) \right) \]</span></p>
+<p>HS for <span class="math inline">\(t &gt; t_b\)</span>:</p>
+<p><span class="math display">\[f_\textrm{twa} = \frac{1}{t} \left(
+ \frac{1}{k_1} \left( 1 - e^{- k_1 t_b} \right) +
+ \frac{e^{- k_1 t_b}}{k_2} \left( 1 - e^{- k_2 (t - t_b)} \right) \right) \]</span></p>
+<p>Note that a method for calculating maximum moving window time weighted average concentrations for a model fitted by ‘mkinfit’ or from parent decline model parameters is included in the <code><a href="../reference/max_twa_parent.html">max_twa_parent()</a></code> function. If the same is needed for metabolites, the function <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/pkg/pfm/man/max_twa.html">pfm::max_twa()</a></code> from the ‘pfm’ package can be used.</p>

+<p>As obvious from the parameter summary (the component of the summary), the kinetic rate constant from parent compound Z to sink is very small and the t-test for this parameter suggests that it is not significantly different from zero. This suggests, in agreement with the analysis in the FOCUS kinetics report, to simplify the model by removing the pathway to sink.</p>
+<p>A similar result can be obtained when formation fractions are used in the model formulation:</p>

+<p>Here, the ilr transformed formation fraction fitted in the model takes a very large value, and the backtransformed formation fraction from parent Z to Z1 is practically unity. Here, the covariance matrix used for the calculation of confidence intervals is not returned as the model is overparameterised.</p>
+<p>A simplified model is obtained by removing the pathway to the sink. </p>
+<p>In the following, we use the parameterisation with formation fractions in order to be able to compare with the results in the FOCUS guidance, and as it makes it easier to use parameters obtained in a previous fit when adding a further metabolite.</p>

+<p>As the FOCUS report states, there is a certain tailing of the time course of metabolite Z3. Also, the time course of the parent compound is not fitted very well using the SFO model, as residues at a certain low level remain.</p>

+<p>It is clear the degradation rate of Z3 towards the end of the experiment is very low as DT50_Z3_b2 (the second Eigenvalue of the system of two differential equations representing the SFORB system for Z3, corresponding to the slower rate constant of the DFOP model) is reported to be infinity. However, this appears to be a feature of the data.</p>

+<p>In this document, the example evaluations provided in Attachment 1 to the SOP of US EPA for using the NAFTA guidance <span class="citation">(US EPA 2015)</span> are repeated using mkin. The original evaluations reported in the attachment were performed using PestDF in version 0.8.4. Note that PestDF 0.8.13 is the version distributed at the US EPA website today (2019-02-26).</p>
+<p>The datasets are now distributed with the mkin package.</p>

+<a href="#examples-where-dfop-did-not-converge-with-pestdf-0-8-4" class="anchor"></a>Examples where DFOP did not converge with PestDF 0.8.4</h1>
+<p>In attachment 1, it is reported that the DFOP model does not converge for these datasets when PestDF 0.8.4 was used. For all four datasets, the DFOP model can be fitted with mkin (see below). The negative half-life given by PestDF 0.8.4 for these fits appears to be the result of a bug. The results for the other two models (SFO and IORE) are the same.</p>

+<p>Here, mkin gives a longer slow DT50 for the DFOP model (17.8 days) than PestDF (13.5 days). Presumably, this is related to the fact that PestDF gives a negative value for the proportion of the fast degradation which should be between 0 and 1, inclusive. This parameter is called f in PestDF and g in mkin. In mkin, it is restricted to the interval from 0 to 1.</p>

+<p>Here, a value below N is given for the IORE model, because the data suggests a faster decline towards the end of the experiment, which appears physically rather unlikely in the case of a photolysis study. It seems PestDF does not constrain N to values above zero, thus the slight difference in IORE model parameters between PestDF and mkin.</p>

+<p>In PestDF, the DFOP fit seems to have stuck in a local minimum, as mkin finds a solution with a much lower <span class="math inline">\(\chi^2\)</span> error level. As the half-life from the slower rate constant of the DFOP model is larger than the IORE derived half-life, the NAFTA recommendation obtained with mkin is to use the DFOP representative half-life of 8.9 days.</p>

+<div id="conclusions" class="section level1">
+<h1 class="hasAnchor">
+<a href="#conclusions" class="anchor"></a>Conclusions</h1>
+<p>The results obtained with mkin deviate from the results obtained with PestDF either in cases where one of the interpretive rules would apply, i.e. the IORE parameter N is less than one or the DFOP k values obtained with PestDF are equal to the SFO k values, or in cases where the DFOP model did not converge, which often lead to negative rate constants returned by PestDF.</p>
+<p>Therefore, mkin appears to suitable for kinetic evaluations according to the NAFTA guidance.</p>

+<p>When using an mkin version equal to or greater than 0.9-36 and a C compiler is available, you will see a message that the model is being compiled from autogenerated C code when defining a model using mkinmod. Starting from version 0.9.49.9, the <code><a href="../../reference/mkinmod.html">mkinmod()</a></code> function checks for presence of a compiler using</p>

+<p>In previous versions, it used <code><a href="https://rdrr.io/r/base/Sys.which.html">Sys.which("gcc")</a></code> for this check.</p>
+<p>On Linux, you need to have the essential build tools like make and gcc or clang installed. On Debian based linux distributions, these will be pulled in by installing the build-essential package.</p>
+<p>On MacOS, which I do not use personally, I have had reports that a compiler is available by default.</p>
+<p>On Windows, you need to install Rtools and have the path to its bin directory in your PATH variable. You do not need to modify the PATH variable when installing Rtools. Instead, I would recommend to put the line</p>

In the output of below code, the warnings about zero being removed from the FOCUS D dataset are suppressed. Since mkin version 0.9.49.11, an analytical solution is also implemented, which is included in the tests below.</p>
