Abstract

PK-DB is an open pharmacokinetics database for clinical and pre-clinical research. This repository contains the software for validating, storing, analyzing, and accessing curated study data. Features include: Study subjects, interventions, pharmacokinetic parameters, and timecourses Scientific validation and unit normalization Controlled vocabulary definitions and ontology annotations Pharmacokinetic calculations from concentration-time profiles REST API and web interface access Source code: github.com/matthiaskoenig/pkdb. Documentation: PK-DB documentation. Curated study data are maintained separately in pkdb_data.
