Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Partition coefficient
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
< 0.3
Temp.:
25 °C
pH:
6
Details on results:
The chromatogram of the test item gave two peaks. With the calibration function log K versus log Pow, the corresponding log Pows of both peaks were determined with:
Peak Mean Area [mAU*min]1 Rel. Area% Mean Retention Time [min] Log Pow ± Stand. Dev
1 7.4157 27.39 1.524 Not evaluable*
2 19.5316 72.53 1.712 -0.581 ± 0.023
(mAU = milli absorbance units
*Because peak 1 has a retention time lower than thiourea, no log k and log Pow is calculable).
These values are the means ± standard deviations of three independent determinations. Both peaks lie within the dead time of the method and not within the range of log Pows of the reference items. Therefore, the corresponding log Pows should be stated as < 0.3 for peaks 1 and 2.
lt is thus concluded that the test item peptone casein has a log Pow of < 0.3.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
A log Pow < 0.3 was stated in a study using HPLC method.
