Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
From the results obtained in this study on the fifty subjects used, the test item tested as a 0.5% w/v solution in dimethyl phthalate, was found to be neither a primary; irritant nor a fatiguing agent to any of the subjects tested. This material did not produce sensitization in any of the subjects tested.
