Japanese term

生体の活性利用率

Japanese to English Medical Medical (general)
Can someone please help me confirm this technical term. It is just a term with no context but I think it is in relation to factor X inhibitors. My reference comes up with utilization rate of biological activity, however this doesn't seem to be an actual term. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

If there is no context, just 'bioavailability' would be enough.

Bioavailability

活性利用率 typically refers to the amount of medication that the body can actually absorb versus the amount of medication taken.

biological activity of organism

literally it is a bit clumsy: "coefficient of biological activity of organism" isn't it?
