Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Based on the observed results and applying the evaluation criteria cited in chapter 3.8 it was concluded, that Potassium Isopropylate shows a corrosive potential
in the Corrositex® - Skin Corrosion Test under the test conditions chosen. The mean breakthrough time determined in the in vitro membrane barrier test
was 16 minutes and 31 seconds2.
