AUC0 of plasma radioactivity Explanation: AUC is a type of modality which assesses area under the curve (plasma drug concentration-time curve). In pharamaceutical parlance we use "AUC levels in plasma concentration" AUC(0-inf) = AUC(0-t*) + C*/ke where C* is the last measured concentration at time (t*) and ke is the terminal elimination rate constant. I would thus suggest translating the phrase as "AUC0 values of plasma radioactivity" or simply "AUC0 of plasma radioactivity" 関するuses a more liberal meaning in this sense---generally 関する means related to. The sentence would be difficult to understand without proper medical schooling. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 26 mins (2008-07-21 12:34:53 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The choice of prepositions (in or of) following AUC is up to you, as both are semantically equivalent and do not detract from the meaning of the source text.
