percentage of substance successfully encapsulated within a carrier system
Entrapment Efficiency refers to the percentage of a substance, such as a drug or active ingredient, that is successfully encapsulated within a carrier system, like nanoparticles or liposomes, during the formulation process. For example, if you are trying to deliver a medication to treat hair loss, high entrapment efficiency means that most of the medication is effectively enclosed within the delivery system, ensuring it reaches the target area more effectively.
