BioRender Template
Drug Diffusion Through Mucus Barriers
Description
This template was adapted from the original submission. Edits were made to enhance scientific accuracy, optimal usability and/or to meet industry-leading design standards for science communication.
Mucus, which covers all wet surfaces of the human body, acts as a natural barrier against air pollutants and bacteria. From a pharmaceutical point of view however, mucus can be an obstacle for drug administration. Diffusion of drug particles that are too big, as well as particles that interact with mucin or other mucus components, will be strongly hampered by the mucus layer.
