Hi HS,

the time above MIC was calculated during the Steady State, which goes from 12 hours to 120 hours. That's why the results differs. (I was struggling with this part as well :ponder: ).

Here the updated code:
time <- c(0.5, 1, 3, 5, 8, 12, 24, 36, 48, 60,
          72, 84, 96, 108, 120, 122, 124)
conc <- c(0.64, 0.7, 1.39, 1.35, 0.67, 1.48, 0.32, 2.08, 0.87, 0.93,
          1.09, 0.59, 1.01, 0.47, 0.99, 0.62, 0.13)
dat  <- data.frame(time, conc)

f <- function(dat, th) {
  under <- 0
  for (i in which(dat$conc < th)) {
      if (!is.na(dat$conc[i-1])) {
        y <- dat$conc[c(i-1,i)]
        x <- dat$time[c(i-1,i)]
        slope <- coef(lm(y~x))[2]
        under <- under + x[2]-x[1]-(th-y[1])/slope
      }
      if (!is.na(dat$conc[i+1])) {
        y <- dat$conc[c(i,i+1)]
        x <- dat$time[c(i,i+1)]
        slope <- coef(lm(y~x))[2]
        under <- under + (th-y[1])/slope
      }
    }
  return(under)
}

th    <- 0.517
first <- 12
last  <- 120
occupancy <- last-first - f(dat[dat$time >=first & dat$time <=last, ], th)
coverage  <- 100*occupancy/(last-first)
cat(" Time point interval:",first,"-",last,"\n",
    "Occupancy time:",occupancy,"\n",
    "Coverage:",coverage,"%\n")

Thanks for your valuable input

Scientists often have a naïve faith that
if only they could discover enough facts about a problem,
these facts would somehow arrange themselves
in a compelling and true solution.    Theodosius Dobzhansky
