1Capacity factor (k) is the standard retention time minus the mean column dead time (1.799 minutes for thiourea) divided by the mean column dead time. 2Values obtained utilizing Microsoft Excel 2000 in full precision mode. Manual calculations may differ slightly. 3Log Pow values are based on literature values provided in OECD Guideline 117.

Conclusions:
The extrapolated log Pow of Alcohols, C18-22, Distn. Residues was >7.17.
Executive summary:

The log Pow of Alcohols, C18 -22, Distn. Residues was determined according to OECD Guideline 117. Alcohols, C18 -22, Distn. Residues eluted as two peaks on the evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD). Since both peaks eluted after the high Pow reference standard under the standard conditions and only after a stronger mobile phase composition was used to drive the test substance off the column, the log Pow for Alcohols, C18 -22, Distn. Residues was greater than DDT (6.5). The extrapolated log Pow was >7.17.
