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

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.
The call to mkinmod returns a degradation model. The differential equations represented in
R code can be found in the character vector $diffs of the mkinmod object. If
a compiler (g++) is installed and functional, the differential equation model
will be compiled from auto-generated C code.
SFO_SFO <- mkinmod(parent = mkinsub("SFO", "m1"), m1 = mkinsub("SFO"))
## Compiling differential equation model from auto-generated C++ code...
print(SFO_SFO$diffs)
## parent
## "d_parent = - k_parent_sink * parent - k_parent_m1 * parent"
## m1
## "d_m1 = + k_parent_m1 * parent - k_m1_sink * m1"
We do the fitting without progress report (quiet = TRUE).
fit <- mkinfit(SFO_SFO, FOCUS_2006_D, quiet = TRUE)
A plot of the fit including a residual plot for both observed variables is obtained
using the plot method for mkinfit objects.
plot(fit, show_residuals = TRUE)
Confidence intervals for the parameter estimates are obtained using the mkinparplot function.
mkinparplot(fit)
A comprehensive report of the results is obtained using the summary method for mkinfit
objects.
