Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The study report describes a scientifically accepted calculation method for the vapour pressure using the US-EPA software MPBPWIN v1.43.No GLP criteria are applicable for the usage of this tool and the QSAR estimation is easily repeatable.
Executive summary:

The vapour pressure of the substance 2-Pyridineethanol was determined by the computer program MPBPWIN v1.43 (EPIWIN software) by US-EPA . The program calculates the vapour pressure according to three different methods: Antoine, Modified Grain and Mackay. The Modified Grain method is preferentially adopted and therefore the most important one [Lyman, W.J., 1985. In: Environmental Exposure From Chemicals. Volume I., Neely, W.B. and Blau, G.E. (eds), Boca Raton, FL: CRC Press, Inc., Chapter 2].

A boiling point of 233.54°C and an ambient temperature of 25°C is assumed. The Antoine Method gives a result of 1.32 Pa , the Mackay Method results in a value of 14.1 Pa and according to the Modified Grain Method the substance has a vapour pressure of 1.16 Pa .
