These effects are determined by both the intrinsic ability of the substance, or its derivatives, to interact with the biological system, and its concentration-time profile within different organs. Physiologically-based kinetic (PBK) models can predict organ-level concentration-time profiles, however, the models are time and resource intensive to generate de novo. Read-across is an approach used in safety assessment to reduce or replace animal testing, wherein information from a data-rich chemical is used to make predictions for a related data-poor chemical. The recent increase in published PBK models presents the opportunity to use a read-across approach for PBK modelling i.e using PBK model information from one chemical to inform the development or evaluation of a PBK model for a similar chemical. Essential to this process, is the identification of the chemicals for which a PBK model already exists. Herein, the results of a systematic review of existing PBK models are presented. Model information including species, sex, life-stage, route of administration, software platform used and availability of model equations has been captured for over 7,500 PBK models. Chemical information (identifiers and physico-chemical properties) has also been recorded for over 1,150 unique chemicals that are associated with these models. This PBK dataset been made readily accessible, as a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, providing a valuable resource, for those developing, using or evaluating PBK models in industry, academia and the regulatory sectors. }, title = {A systematic review of published physiologically-based kinetic models and an assessment of their chemical space coverage}, type = {Abstract}, url = {https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02611929211060264}, volume = {49}, number = {5}, journal = {ATLA-ALTERNATIVES TO LABORATORY ANIMALS}, pages = {197-208}, issn = {0261-1929 (online)}, publisher = {SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD}, doi = {10.1177/02611929211060264 (online)} }
