Drug permeation across the intestinal epithelium is a prerequisite for successful oral drug delivery. The increased interest in oral administration of peptides, as well as poorly soluble and poorly permeable compounds such as drugs for targ…

Eleven simulated intestinal fluids (SIF) were designed using a Design of Experiment (DoE) approach. The DoE SIF covered a range of compositions of fasted state human intestinal fluid (FaHIF) with regard to pH, bile salt (BS), and phospholip…

The purpose of the current study was to provide a mechanistic basis for in vitro and in vivo performance differences between lipid-based formulations solidified by adsorption onto a high surface area material and their respective liquid (i.…
