Details on results:
The BCFBAF version 3.01 programme of the EPI Suite software (EPISuite 4.10) was used to predict either a log BCF of 2.19 (BCF of 153 L/kg wet-wt) (C12-linear component), log BCF 2.26, BCF 181 L/kg wet-wt (C12-branched component), log BCF 1.78, BCF 59.7 L/kg wet-wt (C13-branched component) based on a regression estimate or a log BAF of - 0.04 (BAF of 0.91 L/kg) (C12-linear component), log BAF of - 0.01 (BAF of 0.972 L/kg) (C12-branched component), log BAF of - 0.04 (BAF of 0.91 L/kg) (C13-branched component) based on the Arnot-Gobas upper trophic model both using the smiles codes of the components representing the test substance.

Based on the expected kinetic behaviour in the body substantial amounts of the test substance will not accumulate in the body, because it will be hydrolysed, absorbed and efficiently metabolised into water soluble metabolites, which is supported by the molecular structure of the test substance and its physico-chemical properties.
