Question
Biotechnology Question on DNA repair
When considering drug delivery to the brain which of the following is false?is short
A
The cells in the blood vessels that supply the brain are tightly connected which restricts drug absorption
B
Only relatively small lipophilic molecules readily, passively diffuse in to the brain
C
Drugs with a low log P value show improved passive diffusion into the brain (P: oil/water partition coefficient)
D
Polar molecules can be taken up into the brain through active transport
Answer
Drugs with a low log P value show improved passive diffusion into the brain (P: oil/water partition coefficient)
Explanation
Solution
The correct answer is option (C) : Drugs with a low log P value show improved passive diffusion into the brain (P: oil/water partition coefficient)
