Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) can penetrate and accumulate in the pulmonary surfactant (PS) membranes, leading to abnormalities of biological macromolecules and the destruction of membrane structure and properties. In the present study, the bioavailability, apparent permeability, effective permeability and residual coefficient of 10 PAHs on PS membrane was assessed by the parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA). The influence of various forces on permeability is obtained by analyzing the correlation between parameters and physicochemical properties. Research shows that octanol-water partition coefficient (Kₒw) cannot directly predict permeability, and permeability has no significant relationship with polarity. Dispersion, induction, coupling/polarization promote permeation, while hydrogen bonded acid and n-n electron pair inhibit permeation. Further surface pressure-area (π-A) isotherms test and Brewster angle microscope observation manifested that there are huge differences in the transmembrane ability and effects on the membrane of PAHs with different structures. This work has considerable significance that will help to evaluate the bioavailability and human health risk of PAHs.
