Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The study report describes a scientifically accepted calculation method for the partition coefficient using the US-EPA software KOWWIN v1.68 . No GLP criteria are applicable for the usage of this tool and the QSAR estimation is easily repeatable.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient of the substance 2-Pyridineethanol was determined by the computer program KOWWIN v1.68 (EPIWIN software) by US-EPA . The program uses the chemical structure of a compound to predict the logarithmic octanol water partition coefficient (logPow). The structure is denoted in its SMILES notation. As first step the software determines the logPow contributions from individual molecular fragments. Afterwards these fragments are summed up to gain the logPow for the whole molecule.

In this case a logPow of 0.38 was determined as result.
