SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material: A017 / Lot Number ADT1214003
- Expiration date of the lot/batch: TBD
- Purity test date: 27 May 2016
Re-analysis date : 08 June 2016 and Purity : 98.9%
Re-analysis date : 08 September 2016 and Purity : 99.2%
The purity is unchanged and remains 98.9%

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: room temperature
- Stability under test conditions: yes
- Solubility and stability of the test substance in the solvent/vehicle: yes
- Reactivity of the test substance with the solvent/vehicle of the cell culture medium: no

TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
- Treatment of test material prior to testing: no
- Preliminary purification step (if any): no
- Final dilution of a dissolved solid, stock liquid or gel:
A test substance stock solution was prepared on 25 august 2016 by weighing 201.0 mg of the test substance into a 200-mL volumetric flask. The flask was then brought to volume with distilled water and sonicated to mix.
- Final preparation of a solid: no

FORM AS APPLIED IN THE TEST (if different from that of starting material)
Solid dissolved in distilled water
Key result
Surface tension:
ca. 60.1 other: dynes/cm
Temp.:
20.3 °C
Conc.:
1.005 g/L
Remarks on result:
other: 60.1 ± 0.82 dynes/cm at 20.3 ± 0.1 ºC

The temperature during the definitive test ranged from 20.2 to 20.4°C. The true surface tension of the test substance was determined to be 60.1 ± 0.82 dynes/cm at a temperature of 20.3 ± 0.1 ºC. Reproducibility was demonstrated as evidenced by the coefficient of variance (CV), which was 1.36%. The results are presented in the following table:
