Additional information

Several literature sources were available and provide partition coefficient values for the substance, ranging between 2,18 and 3,79; temperature, when provided is ca 20-25°C, pH is not specified in any source. The BUA report, considered as a reliable source and gathering most of sources, with both indirect (calculation) and direct methods, was chosen as key study. The worst-case value of 3,00 (discarding the unknown method data) is retained as key value.
