Does the amount in a pouch equal the amount absorbed?
Amounts and units
The amount present in a pouch is different from the amount released and the amount absorbed. Product properties, use conditions and study methods affect interpretation. A composition value cannot be converted into a personal exposure using a universal percentage. A useful absorption study must identify the product, dose, route, participants and measured endpoints.
