- Calculation of the partition coefficient log Pow from the preliminary tests:
The partition coefficient Pow may be estimated from the saturation concentrations in n-octanol and water by the following equation:
Pow = cs octanol / cs water
s: saturation
As cs octanol >0.1 g/L and the cs water = <0.7 μg/L (preliminary test) are known, the partition coefficient was calculated as log POW 5.2.
Due to the fact that the estimated log Pow is above 4, the partition coefficient n-octanol/water has to be estimated from the individual solubilities in water and n-octanol.
Determination of the solubility in the n-octanol phase: Flask Method: Average of 3 experiments: 173.6 mg/L
By means of the flask method, the saturation concentration of the test item in water was determined to: cs water <0.7 μg/L
The recovery ranges from 101.5 % to 101.8 % indicated a sufficient accuracy of the analytical method.
Calculation of the partition coefficient log Pow from the individual solubilities:
By means of the flask method, the saturation concentration of the test item in n-octanol was determined to be: cs octanol = 173.6 mg/L
By means of the flask method, the saturation concentration of the test item in water was determined to be: cs water <0.7 μg/L.
Pow = cs octanol / cs water: 173600 μg/L /<0.7 μg/L.
Pow: 248000
Log pow: >5.39 - Conclusions:
- The n-octanol/water partition coefficent of the test item at 20 °C, from the individual solubility in water and n-octanol, was determined to be (log Pow) >5.39.
- Executive summary:
A test was conducted to evaluate the n-octanol/water partition coefficient of the test substance according to OECD Guideline 107 and 117 as well as EU Method A.8. Flask method was used for this purpose. Based on the findings of the study, the n-octanol/water partition coefficent of the test item at 20 °C, from the individual solubility in water and n-octanol, was determined to be (log Pow) >5.39.
