C10 (capric acid) triglyceride. Also portal-absorbed + β-oxidised in liver. Produces less BHB per gram than C8 (slower kinetics; some peripheral oxidation before reaching liver). Better GI tolerance — combined C8/C10 blends balance ketone yield against tolerability.
F 0.9 REMOVED as an R6 stored default. PMID:31058159 reports plasma ketone and fatty-acid responses to 20 mL oil doses and states no bioavailability, volume or half-life. This record already narrates removing a defaulted ka of 1.0 from the same route object; the defaulted F beside it was the identical defect one field over. Numerically a no-op. PK: THE STORED ABSORPTION RATE WAS THE SOLVER DEFAULT WEARING A CITATION. A ka of 1.0/h is exactly what resolvePk substitutes when the field is ABSENT, and no source on this record states one. Removing it is NUMERICALLY A NO-OP — the resolver supplies the identical number — so no curve moves; what changes is that the record stops asserting an absorption rate it never measured. This is the same shape already found on a volume of 35 L, which is likewise the default at the seventy-kilogram reference. THE WIDER DEBT IS LEFT ALONE ON PURPOSE: twelve values account for 152 of the 276 authored absorption rates, but the other eleven are NOT the default, so deleting those would move their curves rather than leave them, which is the error this audit spent a batch documenting.
