Overview:
Understanding biodistribution is critical for evaluation of bioequivalence, bioavailability, and toxicity of a drug substance and in some cases for excipients such as cationic lipids, which play a vital role in the delivery of gene therapies. Residual drug substances or excipients are analyzed in various biological matrices such as blood, plasma, serum, and tissues. The choice of matrix is mainly dependent on the route of administration.
