The TGD (2003) equation has been assessed according to the OECD principles.
1.A defined endpoint:
Bioconcentration Factor (BCF).
2. An unambiguous algorithm:
For a substance with a log Kow of 2 -6, the following linear relationship can be used as developed by Veith et al. (1979): log BCF (fish) = 0.85*log Kow - 0.70. For a substance with a log Kow higher than 6, a parabolic equation can be used: log BCF (fish) = -0.20*log Kow² + 2.74*log Kow - 4.72.
3.A defined domain of applicability:
The model applicability domain consists of 2 parts: organic chemicals with log Kow of 2 -6 and organic chemicals with log Kow > 6.
4.Appropriate measures of goodness-of-fit, robustness and predictivity:
n (number of data) = 55; R² (correlation coefficient) = 0.90
5.A mechanistic interpretation, if possible:
No data
Description of key information
The bioconcentration factor (BCF) was estimated by three QSAR models:
- BCFBAF v3.01 module of EPI suite (v4.0) - Regression-based estimate
- BCF-BAF v3.01 module of EPI suite (v4.0) (including biotransformation) - Arnot-Gobas lower trophic level
- A model described in Technical Guidance Risk Assessment (European Chemicals Bureau, 2003) - Part II, Chapter 3.8, equation (74) p. 126.
Nerol exhibits an estimated fish BCF of 35.4 L/kg (geometric mean of the three QSAR results: 30.76 L/kg, 32.6 L/kg, 44.3 L/kg).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- BCF (aquatic species):
- 35.4 L/kg ww
Additional information
ECHA Guidance (chapter R.7.c) recommends to calculate the BCF endpoint value as the geometric mean of results obtained by means of QSAR models.
This geometric mean value is considered as the endpoint defining the substance potential for bioaccumulation and can be used as input parameter for environmental risk assessment.
