Distribution is the process by which an absorbed substance and/or its bio-transformation products circulate and partition within the body. The most important chemical characteristics that affect distribution are lipophilicity, molecular size and shape and degree of ionisation. Lipophilic, small, non-ionic molecules can diffuse readily across cellular membranes. Very low molecular, hydrophilic substances may diffuse through aqueous pores. A number of tissue parameters also affect tissue distribution, such as blood flow rate, the permeability of capillary and cell membranes and the nature of the extracellular fluid matrix. 

A second family is based on isobutene polymers (PIB) having molecular weights from 600 to 2000 that are equally important raw materials for detergent additives. So as to render them reactive with the hydrophilic part, they can be chlorinated or condensed with the maleic anhydride. A third way is based on the utilization of polypropylphenols of molecular weights between 600 and 3000. 

Chain models capture the basic elements of the amphiphilic behaviour by retaining details of the molecular architecture. Ben-Shaul et aJ [ ] and others [ ] explored the organization of tlie hydrophobic portion in lipid micelles and bilayers by retaining the confonuational statistics of the hydrocarbon tail withm the RIS (rotational isomeric state) model [4, 5] while representing the hydrophilic/liydrophobic mterface merely by an... 

Knowledge of the spatial dimensions of a molecule is insufficient to imderstand the details of complex molecular interactions. In fact, molecular properties such as electrostatic potential, hydrophilic/lipophilic properties, and hydrogen bonding ability should be taken into account. These properties can be classified as scalar isosurfaces), vector field, and volumetric properties. 

Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic Surfaces. Water is a small, highly polar molecular and it is therefore strongly adsorbed on a polar surface as a result of the large contribution from the electrostatic forces. Polar adsorbents such as most zeoHtes, siUca gel, or activated alumina therefore adsorb water more strongly than they adsorb organic species, and, as a result, such adsorbents are commonly called hydrophilic. In contrast, on a nonpolar surface where there is no electrostatic interaction water is held only very weakly and is easily displaced by organics. Such adsorbents, which are the only practical choice for adsorption of organics from aqueous solutions, are termed hydrophobic. 

Lanolin alcohols are obtained by saponification of purified wool grease, a mixture of high molecular esters that is recovered in wool (qv) scouring. Ethoxylation of purified lanolin alcohols yields a full series of lipophilic and hydrophilic nonionic emulsifiers whose largest use is in cosmetic preparations. Manufacturers include Amerchol, Croda, ICI, Henkel Corporation, Westbrook Lanolin, Witco, and Pulcra, SA. 

Skin. The skin may become contaminated accidentally or, in some cases, materials may be deHberately appHed. Skin is a principal route of exposure in the industrial environment. Local effects that are produced include acute or chronic inflammation, allergic reactions, and neoplasia. The skin may also act as a significant route for the absorption of systemicaHy toxic materials. Eactors influencing the amount of material absorbed include the site of contamination, integrity of the skin, temperature, formulation of the material, and physicochemical characteristics, including charge, molecular weight, and hydrophilic and lipophilic characteristics. Determinants of percutaneous absorption and toxicity have been reviewed (32—35,42,43,46—49). 

Partially hydrolyzed poly(vinyl alcohol) grades are preferred because they have a hydrophobic /hydrophilic balance that make them uniquely suited for emulsion polymerization. The compatibUity of the residual acetate units with the poly(vinyl acetate) latex particles partly explains the observed stabilization effect. The amount of PVA employed is normally 4—10% on the weight of vinyl acetate monomer. The viscosity of the resulting latex increases with increasing molecular weight and decreasing hydrolysis of the PVA (318). 

The enniatins enniatin A [2503-13-17, C gH N Og, enniatin B [917-13-5] C23H yN202, enniatin C [19893-23-3], C Hg N Og, and beauvericin (Fig. 8) are 700—800 molecular weight cycHc hexadepsipeptides. They form valinomycinlike hydrophilic cavities surrounded by outer lipophilic regions, but they have more flexible stmctures than those seen with valinomycin and therefore have less specificity for potassium over sodium ion than valinomycin (186,187).
