In medicinal chemistry, Drug Permeability is an empirical parameter that indicates how quickly a chemical entity or an active pharmaceutical ingredient crosses a biological membrane or another biological barrier to become bioavailable in the body. Drug permeability, together with drug aqueous solubility are the two parameters which defines the fate of the active ingredient after oral administration that ultimately defines its bioavailability.[1] When drug permeability is empirically measured in vitro, it is generally called apparent permeability (Papp) as its absolute value varies according to the method selected for its measurement. Papp is measured in vitro utilizing cellular based barriers such as the Caco-2[2] model or utilizing artificial biomimetic barriers, such as the Parallel Artificial Membrane Permeation Assay (PAMPA)[3] or the PermeaPad.[4] All these methods are built on an acceptor compartment (from 0.2 up to several mL according to the method uses) where the drug solution is placed, a biomimetic barrier and an acceptor compartment, where the drug concentration is quantified over time. By maintaining sink condition, a steady state is reached after a lag time (τ, Fig. 1) .
