> this review reports bioavailability of up to 70% for some agents

To save us some skimming, could you specify which ones? (The review covers cyclic peptides that are absorbed by all mammals.)

There are several - I’m not sure why you say cyclic peptides are somehow distinct from other peptides regarding their bioavailability?

All peptides face similar challenges with absorption; the cyclic peptides simply have less liability to proteolysis.

The text covers dozens of agents with varied biochemical properties.

    I'm saying there are peptides on that list that are bioavailable to non-human mammals.
