Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
SymMollient® S is intended to be used at a low application rate as a topical skin care product to regulate the moisture content of the skin by forming alight hydrophobic film on the skin that protects from drying out.
 
Based on the low water solubility (A: 3.5 µg/L/ B: 1.7 µg/L) and the high lipophilicity (logPow (calculated) = 11.2 / 12.2), quantitatively relevant dermal absorption cannot completely ruled out on the basis of theoretical considerations only.
