Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The results of the bio-elution study confirm that under the conditions of the test, only relatively small concentrations of rhenium ions are released.
Executive summary:

The results of the bio-elution study with gastric fluid show 0.23% release of rhenium in after 2 hours. The results from the dermal study show 0.61% release after 24 hours and 1.4% release after 168 hours.
