Guideline:
other: ECHA Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment - Chapter R.06: QSARs and grouping of chemicals - May2008
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The BCFBAF program estimates the Bioconcentration Factor (BCF) of an organic compound using the compound's log octanol-water partition coefficient (Kow).
The original estimation methodology used by the original BCFWIN program is described in a document prepared for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (Meylan et al., 1997). The estimation methodology was then published in journal article (Meylan et al, 1999).
BCFBAF has been expanded to include estimation of the Biotransformation Rate (kM) in fish and estimation of Bioaccumulation Factor (BAF) by the Arnot-Gobas method (Arnot and Gobas, 2003).

Details on results:
The simulation was run without entering a log Kow value. The estimation of log Kow by Biowin mode was therefore used for calculation.
