Effects of sampling location on data sensitivity in a three compartment model.
A computer simulation of a three compartment model was developed to examine the effect of sampling location on the accuracy of estimates of system parameters. Results indicate that the best estimates are obtained when all three compartments are sampled. Sampling from only one compartment tends to result in the poorest estimates.
