Distribution
These studies are a vital part of the ADME (Absorption, Distribution, Metabolism, and Excretion) profiling in drug discovery. These studies help predict how a drug will spread throughout the body after administration, which is crucial for understanding its efficacy, potential toxicity, and dosing strategy.
