Photoacoustic analysis of the solubilization kinetics of pulmonary secretions from cystic fibrosis patients – secretor and non-secretor phenotypes

The fate of inhaled antibiotics after deposition in cystic fibrosis: How to get drug to the bug?

“…Carriers of this secretor phenotype reached the typical interaction time of solubilization quicker than non-secretors. However, the question is if this is clinically relevant as the difference was 5 min and the total time it took to dissolve in mucus was similar [7,8].…”
