New in vitro bioavailability models to avoid animal studies

Enabling formulations, such as amorphous solid dispersions, contain a mixture of additives. In our novel experimental set-up we can look at the dissolution process and simultaneously at permeation. These parameters are interdependent in the case of enabling drug formulations, and experimental exploration gives us a better understanding of the principle of increased bioavailability for each type of such formulations.
