aData only available for compounds where lung analysis was carried out to confirm recovery

bCalculated using Chemaxon v5.4.1.1 (http://www.chemaxon.com/)

cSolubility in dose vehicle was determined post study on a discrete weighing of the compound

dSolubility of Tiotropium was not measured in the IPRLu model experiment, therefore it was not included in the “Training set”. Safety data sheet quotes solubility to be ~5 mg/ml in PBS (pH 7.2) https://www.caymanchem.com/msdss/15773m.pdf

eLidocaine data is from n = 4

fZanamivir dose analysis failed, expected to be fully solubilised in the dose vehicle (250 μg/ml 0.2% Tween 80 in saline) due to its zwitterionic nature. Merck Index states solubility of zanamivir to be 18 mg/ml in water
