fitted lines are the sum of saturable (small dashed lines) and nonsaturable (medium dashed
lines) components. (From ref. 89, with permission.)

b Nonsaturable or linear uptake clearance.
c Total hepatocyte uptake clearance is equal to V max / K m + PS uptake under linear conditions; PS uptake is the
permeability-surface area product by passive diffusion.
