Abstract
An important part the absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of an oral therapeutic is the flux rate of drug compound crossing the mucus lining of the gut. To understand this part of the absorption process, we develop a mathematical model of advection, diffusion and binding of drug compounds within the mucus layer of the intestines. Analysis of this model yields simple, measurable criteria for the successful mucin layer traversal of drug compound.
