7. Conclusion

After testing the pouches that had scratches and marks on the neck and lip, we did not find any that leaked with air or

water.

Moreover, we don’t know and not able to test the effect of irradiation on our product, Therefor, we recommend the release

of the product, but to a less risky customer.
