insights from industry Prof. Na Li Assistant Professor University of Connecticut In this interview, Prof Na Li explores the mysteries of the particle drifting effect and its practical applications in real-world scenarios. Could you explain why solubility is such a crucial factor in drug absorption? Only solubilized drugs can be absorbed by the body. However, the poor solubility of many drugs—both currently on the market and those in development—has been a major challenge for the pharmaceutical industry. As formulation scientists, we aim to develop strategies that enhance drug solubility to ensure effective absorption. Without these strategies, taking life-saving drugs would...
