Hi,
I am trying fit my kinetic data with the "mkin" package. There I have two 
questions:

1.) I would like to fix the parameter parent_0, the concentration of the parent 
at time 0. In the mkinfit function description it says you can do it with the 
arguments parms.ini and fixed_parms. In which form do these arguments have to 
be to fix the (internally defined and fitted) parameter parent_0?
SFO <- mkinmod(parent=list(type="SFO"))
SFO.fit <- mkinfit(SFO,data, parm.ini=??, fixed_parms=??)

2.) When I try to fit the parent and a metabolite m1, I get the error message:
Error in dnorm(x, mean, sd, log) : 
  Non-numeric argument to mathematical function
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In Ops.factor(ModVar, obsdat) : - not meaningful for factors
2: In Ops.factor(ModVar, obsdat) : - not meaningful for factors

My code is:
data <- read.table("101025_batch1.txt", header=TRUE)
SFO_SFO <- mkinmod(parent = list(type = "SFO", to = "m1", sink =TRUE),m1 = 
list(type = "SFO")) 
SFO.fit <- mkinfit(SFO_SFO,data)

101025_batch1.txt looks like this:
name    time    value
parent  0       NA
parent  15      NA
parent  29      23.796
parent  44      14.499
parent  58      7.650
parent  73      4.170
parent  88      2.438
parent  102     1.865
parent  117     1.598
m1      0       0
m1      15      6.476
m1      29      19.651
m1      44      32.271
m1      58      40.906
m1      73      48.295
m1      88      53.295
m1      102     56.250
m1      117     58.459

Thank you very much for you help!
