Reference
Endpoint:
partition coefficient
Type of information:
calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
Remarks:
Migrated phrase: estimated by calculation
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2010-03-22 to 2010-04-23
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: OECD guideline, GLP study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 107 (Partition Coefficient (n-octanol / water), Shake Flask Method)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
Test item dissolved in water saturated in n-octanol and the determined values of the partition coefficient (expressed as a logaithm) fall within a range of 0.6 log units
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method A.8 (Partition Coefficient)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
Test item dissolved in water saturated in n-octanol and the determined values of the partition coefficient (expressed as a logaithm) fall within a range of 0.6 log units
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of method:
shake-flask method to: flask method
Partition coefficient type:
octanol-water
Analytical method:
high-performance liquid chromatography
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
ca. -0.69
Temp.:
20.2 °C
pH:
5.9
Details on results:
The average n-octanol/water partition coefficient of the test item at 20.2°C and at pH5.9 is Pow= 2.38E-01
The standard deviation of all tabulated individual determination is : +/- 1.39E-01
The non-repeatability of the different partition coefficient is due to the presence of a third phase ( localized between the aqueous phase and the octanol phase). Indeed, the test item is surface-acting and so it was complicated to analyze it properly.

The average partition coefficient is (average of all tabulated individual determinations ± standard
deviation) :


Pow = 2.38E-01 ± 1.39 E-01
Log (Pow) = -0.69 ± 0.29
The non-repeatability of the different partition coefficient is due to the presence of a third phase (localized between the aqueous phase and the octanol phase). Indeed, the test item is surface-acting and so it was complicated to analyze it properly.

Conclusions:
The value of partition coefficient found in this study is:
Pow = 2.38E-01 and Log(Pow) = -0.69 at 20.2°C in purified water ( pH 5.9).
