This function initializes the parameters needed in the functions solve_pbtk, calc_css, and others using the multiple compartment model.

Either the chemical name or the CAS number must be specified.
Species desired (either "Rat", "Rabbit", "Dog", "Mouse", or default "Human").
Substitutes missing animal values with human values if true (hepatic intrinsic clearance or fraction of unbound plasma).
Specifies compartment names and tissues groupings. Remaining tissues in tissue.data are lumped in the rest of the body. However, solve_pbtk only works with the default parameters.
Forces use of human values for hepatic intrinsic clearance and fraction of unbound plasma if true.
Hepatic clearances with clearance assays having p-values greater than the threshold are set to zero.
Returns adjusted Funbound.plasma when set to TRUE along with parition coefficients calculated with this value.
Whether or not to use the regressions in calculating partition coefficients.
Whether or not the output message is suppressed.
Body Weight, kg.
Hepatic Clearance, L/h/kg BW.
Fraction of the oral dose absorbed, i.e. the fraction of the dose that enters the gutlumen.
Fraction of plasma that is not bound.
The fraction of chemical unbound in hepatocyte assay using the method of Kilford et al. (2008)
Percent volume of red blood cells in the blood.
Ratio of concentration of chemical in gut tissue to unbound concentration in plasma.
Rate that chemical enters the gut from gutlumen, 1/h.
Ratio of concentration of chemical in kidney tissue to unbound concentration in plasma.
Ratio of concentration of chemical in liver tissue to unbound concentration in plasma.
Ratio of concentration of chemical in lung tissue to unbound concentration in plasma.
Ratio of concentration of chemical in red blood cells to unbound concentration in plasma.
Ratio of concentration of chemical in rest of body tissue to unbound concentration in plasma.
Millions cells per gram of liver tissue.
Molecular Weight, g/mol.
Cardiac Output, L/h/kg BW^3/4.

Volume of the gut per kg body weight, L/kg BW.
Volume of the kidneys per kg body weight, L/kg BW.

Volume of the rest of the body per kg body weight, L/kg BW.
Volume of the veins per kg body weight, L/kg BW.
