Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Computer model
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The bioconcentration factor (BCF) was calculated by the BCFBAF subroutine (version 3.00) in the EPI SuiteTM (2008) computer model that estimates the BCF based upon chemical structure and log octanol-water partition coefficient.
