Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The pH of 1% w/v dispersion of the test item diphenyl acetic acid (CAS No117-34-0) was 3.72 at 28 °C.
Executive summary:

The pH determination of test item diphenyl acetic acid (CAS No 117-34-0) was done following OECD guideline 122. pH of 1% w/v dispersion was measured with the help of pH meter and it was observed to be 3.72at 28 °C. Based on the value, diphenyl acetic acid (CAS No 117-34-0) was considered to be acidic in nature.
