Expert Verdict
Key concern: DMAPA-related sensitization risk; impurity profile is critical with free DMAPA and amidoamine content requiring minimization. Formulate to minimize free amine content. CPSR assessor will likely require supporting sensitization data or read-across with robust justification. Not to be confused with the safer quaternized derivatives.
