The FOCUS Kinetics Report first published in 2006 describes mathematical models and recommends statistical methods for the evaluation of chemical degradation data. This package implements fitting the kinetic models suitable for observations of the decline of a single chemical compound (no metabolite formation/decline or multi-compartment kinetics). Please note that no warranty is implied for correctness of results or fitness for a particular purpose. 'kinfit' is maintained, but not actively developed at the moment. Please check the 'mkin' package for an actively developed package for kinetic evaluations of degradation data.
