2020-09-02 tc1510-1 M1SD partial AUCs including an NA concentration not generated #265
When running tc1510-1 M1SD partial AUCs including a concentration time which corresponds with a NA concentration results in an NA partial AUC. Desired behaviour would be for interpolation/extrapolation to occur as appropriate if a valid number for KEL is present.
Output shown below for two profiles. The first profile has NA for KEL and so partial AUC with extrapolation cannot be computed (correct behaviour).
The second profile has a value for KEL and extrapolation still occurs when asking for an interval that goes beyond the last NA value, 72. Example partial AUC being AUC0_168 (correct behaviour).
However interpolation/extrapolation does not occur for values greater than the last non-NA value, 24, but less than the last NA value, 72. The affected partial AUCs are AUC8_48 & AUC0_64. (issue)
