2.pore transport - It is also called as convective transport, bulk flow or filtration. -the process is important in the absorption of low molecular weight (less than 100). -low molecular size (small than the diameter of the pare) generally water-soluble drugs through marrow, aqueous filled channels or pores, in the membrane structure .ex :Urea, H₂o & Sugars.... * Chain-like.. or linear compounds of molecular weight upto 400 daltons can be absorbed by filtration. * The driving force is constituted by the hydrostatic pressure/ the asmotic differences across the membrane due to which bulk flow of water along with solid molecules occurs through, aqueous such channels →water flux that promotes such a transport is called as solvent drug. -drug permeation through water filled channels or of particular importance in renal excretion,removal of drug from the cerebrospinal fluid and entry of drugs into the liver.
