Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Reviews and evaluations on soluble perchlorate salts, including potassium perchlorate, are available from US and European offices. They all conclude that dermal uptake is unlikely because perchlorate ions are rarely absorbed through skin. Based on all widely accepted evaluations an absorption facor of 2% can be assumed for potassium perchlorate.
