Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The log Pow of the substance is 2.8 (at ca 20°C).
Executive summary:

The log Pow of the substance was determined using the HPLC method in a GLP study according to EC A.8, OECD 117 and OPPTS 830.7570. Formamide was used as unretained substance. Duplicate injections of unretained substance, 6 reference substances and test item in an UPLC-UV system. The mobile phase was 75/25 (v/v) methanol/water and the wavelength of detection was 210 nm. The chromatogram of the test item showed one peak. The corresponding log Pow (at ca 20°C) was determined to be 2.8 (Pow= 6.2E02).
