Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item Phosphocreatine, sodium salt (CAS 922-32-7) has a coarse fraction > 2000 µm of 67.5 wt.-%. The fine fraction has a median particle size D50 = 48.9 µm, which was determined by laser diffraction measurement according to OECD Test Guideline 110 (1981), ISO 13320 (2009) and EPA OCSPP Guideline OPPTS 830.7520 (1996).
Executive summary:

The test item Phosphocreatine, sodium salt (CAS 922-32-7) has a coarse fraction > 2000 µm of 67.5 wt.-%. The fine fraction has a median particle size D50= 48.9 µm, which was determined by laser diffraction measurement according to OECD Test Guideline 110 (1981), ISO 13320 (2009) and EPA OCSPP Guideline OPPTS 830.7520 (1996).
