Additional information
No study was conducted on the substance itself.
The test item is a complex substance for which only a part of the composition has been clearly identified due to technical issues. The application of the standards water solubility determination methods is limited due to technical issues and limited knowledge of composition of the test item.
Indeed, considering the nature of the known constituents, we anticipate that the composition of the solubilised fraction should be different from the initial composition and that this composition should vary with the loading rate. However due to analytical issues, the composition of the substance (as such or in water) cannot be deeply determined and due to the large part of the unknown composition, we cannot anticipate the behavior of the constituents of the mixture in water.
In addition ecotox studies showed that although a lot of effort was required to extract and solubilise the soluble fraction of the test item in test water (heating, sonication, mixing without headspace …) and to maintain the concentrations of the WAFs (closed conditions with minimum headspace), TOC analysis indicated that organic compounds were found at low value in the WAFs at 100 mg/L. Therefore, technical issues are anticipated in the case where the determination of water solubility is conducted using TOC method.
Finally, determining the water solubility of some « target » peaks detectable by chromatography may be considered. However the water solubility obtained from these « target » peaks would lead to partial results without proof that the toxicity is linked to the target « peaks ».
Therefore, considering the very complex nature of the test item, the information obtained from testing is considered as not relevant or of practical use for subsequent assessments and therefore conducting the test is waived based on Chapter R.7a, v6.0, July 2017,R.7.17.4, which reports : “for complex substances the information obtained from such testing is not relevant or of practical use, and therefore conducting the test may be waived where the data is irrelevant for subsequent assessments ».
Anyway, we considered the literature data and QSAR estimations on known constituents of the substance when possible.
Nine known constituents of the substance (covering about 30 -50% of the composition of the substance) are ranging between 3.116 and 1000000 mg/L at ambient temperature (peer reviewed literature data and QSAR) :
- trans-cinnamic acid WS ca 546 mg/L,
- benzoic acid WS ca 3500 mg/L,
- cinnamyl cinnamate WS ca 3,116 mg/L (EPISuite- WSKowWin v1.42),
- vanillin WS ca 11020 mg/L,
- benzyl benzoate WS ca 15,39 mg/L (EPISuite- WSKowWin v1.42),
- benzyl cinnamate WS ca 9,269 mg/L (EPISuite- WSKowWin v1.42),
- ethanol WS ca 1000000 mg/L,
- isoeugenol WS ca 810 mg/L,
- cinnamaldehyde WS ca 1420 mg/L,
However, only a range of water solubility on a limited part of the composition of the substance, not representative of the whole substance, can be provided using peer reviewed literature data and QSAR estimations.
Therefore it is considered that no range, representative of the whole substance, can be determined for this substance(neither with an experimental approach nor with an literature data / estimation approach).
