Summary

It is demonstrated that the well-known sigmoid permeability-lipophilicity relationship should be considered as a molecular weight-dependent set of sigmoidal relationships and shows that combined log D values and molecular weight are important determinants for membrane transport processes through, e.g. Caco-2 monolayers and the mucosal GI membranes.
