Reliability:

Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Meets the criteria as reliable with restrictions according to Klimisch et al (1997). This read-across is based on the hypothesis that the Source and Target substances will have similar toxicological and ecotoxicological properties due to their close physical-chemical and structural similarities. For example, both the Source and Target substances are monoconstituents which share structural similarities and contain the same functional groups (thio ether, sulfonate, vicinal nitrile groups).

Details on study design: HPLC method:
EQUIPMENT
- Apparatus: A HPLC sysytem comprising of HPLC pump, Injection valve fitted with 100ul loop, 25cm x 4.6 mm id column packed with a 5um CN phase, Photo diode array detector with the scan range from 210 to 400nm, Chromotography data system.

MOBILE PHASES
- Type:55% methanol and 45% deionised water pumped through at a flow rate of1.5ml/min.
- pH: Unadjusted pH6, also adjusted to pH2 and pH 10.


DETERMINATION OF DEAD TIME
- Method: by inert substance, sodium nitrate, which is not retained by the column

REFERENCE SUBSTANCES
- Identity: Acetanilide, Atrazine, Isoproturon, Linuron, Naphthalene, 1,2,3-Trichlorobenzene, Fenthion, Phenanthrene, ppDDT

EVALUATION
- Calculation of capacity factors k': Retention time of test material - column dead time/ column dead time
- Calculation of retention times:All the reference substances were injected in duplicate, as a minimum, and the mean retention times were determined. Each concentration of the test material was also injected in duplicate and the mean retention time determined for each concentration.
- Determination of the log Koc value: Determined from the regression line of experimentally derived k' measurements and the literature Koc values of the the reference substances

Batch equilibrium or other method

Analytical monitoring:
no

Any other information on results incl. tables

The Source substance has a comprehensive data set generated for a REACH Annex VIII registration and this along with its similarity to the Target substance are considered sufficient to consider the read-across an appropriate adaptation to the standard information requirements of Annex VII of the REACH regulation for the Target substance in accordance with the provisions of Annex XI, 1.5 of the REACH regulation. Please see the attached document in the Background Material section for further details on the justification of the read across approach.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The test results indicate that the (source) test material will not be fully absorbed on soil and will be relatively mobile between soil and ground water, although its mobility will vary with pH. It is likely that it will be least mobile at neutral pH and show its highest mobility at alkaline pH.

Executive summary:

Introduction

This study was carried out to estimate the adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the (source) test material using a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) correlation technique. The test method was designed to be compatible with:

- OECD Guideline 121, Estimation of the Adsorpton Coefficient (Koc) on Soil and on Sewage Sludge using High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).

This read-across is based on the hypothesis that the Source and Target substances will have similar toxicological and ecotoxicological properties due to their close physical-chemical and structural similarities. For example, both the Source and Target substances are monoconstituents which share structural similarities and contain the same functional groups (thio ether, sulfonate, vicinal nitrile groups).

Results and Conclusions

Estimated Log Koc

5.0 mg/l unadjusted pH (pH 6): 3.24      10.0 mg/l unadjusted pH (pH 6): 3.19

pH 2: 2.53                                                    pH 2: 2.50

pH 10: (peak 1) 1.99                                  pH 10 (peak 1): 1.84

pH 10: (peak 2) 2.22                                  pH 10 (peak 1): 2.10

The test results indicate that the source test material will not be fully absorbed on soil and will be relatively mobile between soil and ground water, although its mobility will vary with pH. It is likely that it will be least mobile at neutral pH and show its highest mobility at alkaline pH.

The Source substance has a comprehensive data set generated for a REACH Annex VIII registration and this along with its similarity to the Target substance are considered sufficient to consider the read-across an appropriate adaptation to the standard information requirements of Annex VII of the REACH regulation for the Target substance in accordance with the provisions of Annex XI, 1.5 of the REACH regulation.
