Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance (source substance) bis(hydrogenated tallow C16-C18-alkyl)hydroxylamine is a structurally very similar substance to target substance hydroxylamines, di-C16-18 (even numbered) alkyl. It can be reasonably assumed that target substance has the same properties. However, care should be exercised in the interpretation of the data of source substance, since the source substance was tested at levels above its water solubility of target substance. For the target substance, no toxic effects shall occur within the range of solubility (0.13 mg/L) .
