Mucus is widely disseminated in the nasal cavity, oral cavity, respiratory tract, eyes, gastrointestinal tract, and reproductive tract to prevent the invasion of pathogenic bacteria and toxins. The mucus layer through its continuous secretion can prevent the passage of macromolecular substances such as pathogenic bacteria and toxins, thereby reducing the occurrence of inflammation. Without a doubt, mucus also hinders oral absorption. The physiological and biochemical properties of intestinal mucus and the different types of mucus barrier models need to be predominated. To find ways to increase the bioavailability of drugs in the future, this article summarizes mucus composition, barrier properties, mucus models, and mucoadhesive/mucopenetrating particles to highlight the information they can afford.Collectively, the review seeks to provide a state-of-the-art roadmap for researchers who must contend with this critical barrier to drug delivery.
