Perfusion models offered by Absorption Systems focus on intestinal absorption (in situ intestinal perfusion), penetration of the blood-brain barrier (in situ brain perfusion), and biliary excretion (isolated liver perfusion).
Permeability of a drug either across or into a very specific tissue is often of crucial importance in order for a drug to be effective and/or effectively cleared from the body. While pharmacokinetic studies provide a complete picture of a drug’s bioavailability and disposition, in some instances a more mechanistic approach is required to truly understand what is going on “behind the scenes.” Organ perfusion models minimize interference from other physiological factors present in pharmacokinetic studies.
