Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- partition coefficient
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 1995
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- data from handbook or collection of data
- Justification for type of information:
- The volume of Hansch and Leo contains 16 777 measured octanol-water log P values. This publication is well known and considered as reliable although it is difficult to recover the original source publication (then reliability is set to klimish 2 score).
