- The model and the training and validation sets are published by US Environmental Protection Agency (USA).
The experimental water solubility values in the training set and validation set were measured using one or more methods equivalent or similar to the following guidelines:

- Slow Stirring methods (modified OECD TG 105) according to methods similar to those described by Letinksi and coworkers: Slow-stir water solubility measurements of selected alcohols and diesters”, Chemosphere, 48, 257 – 265 (2000).
Plus relevant EU and US EPA OPPTS methods may be also used where appropriate.

Reference to type of model used and description of results:
WATERNT v1.01; integrated within the Estimation Programme Interface (EPI) Suite programme for Microsoft Windows v4.11; September 2010 (model development); November 2012 (model publication)
2. Description of results and assessment of reliability of the prediction:
The predicted values are provided within the QPRF attached: ‘QPRF Title: Substance: Juniper, Juniperus mexicana, ext., isomerized, acetylated using the model WATERNT v1.01 for the endpoint: Water Solubility)’ version 1.0; 15 June 2015 which has been newly compiled.
The range of constituents water solubility was: 0.01 – 2.80 mg/L
Several or more constituents had water solubility < 0.1 mg/L ('insoluble' band)
The majority of constituents had water solubility < 1 mg/L ('slightly soluble' band)
Several or more constituents had solubility > 1 mg/L
It is noted by the applicant there is no universally acknowledged applicability domain for the model. However, assessment of the substance within the applicability domains recommended by the developers is documented within the corresponding QMRF named ‘QMRF Title: WATERNT v1.01 : Water Solubility’ version 1.0; 10 June 2015 – section 5; indicates the substance (constituents):
(i) All constituents fall within the Molecular Weight and Water Solubility (mol/L) training set domain ranges.
(ii) No substances have functional groups or features not in the training set of the model and/or for which no fragment constants and correction factors available. No constituents contain multiple fragment instances than the maximum of the training set (see QMRF title section 9.3 for more information).
3. Uncertainty of the prediction and mechanistic domain:
The training set of the model has the following statistics and coefficients of determination:
Total Training Set Statistics: number in dataset = 1128 ; correlation coef (r2) = 0.940 ; standard deviation = 0.537 ; avg Molecular Weight = 187.74
The model has been externally validated on a set of 4636 substances and the following statistics and coefficients of determination are presented:
Total Validation Set Statistics: number in dataset = 4636 ; correlation coef (r2) = 0.815 ; standard deviation = 1.045 ; avg Molecular Weight = 227.52
Data for the training set are available via external validation (see attached QMRF prepared by the applicant for full citations).
There is no overt mechanistic basis for the model. The model correlates thermodynamic relationships of surrogates to chemical activity. The WATERNT run in standalone mode allows water solubility to be estimated based on measured values of analogues within the training set (if available). Then the model applies by adding/subtracting fragment constants and correction factors from the measured value. This therefore improves prediction since calculations are based on structural differences between target and analogue. The model domain ideally has at least one or more structurally similar substances to target substances on which to then apply ACF methodology. Whilst there appears to be no direct analogues within the training set. The model has been has been validated externally (using > 4000) substances with a correlation coefficient (r2) = 0.815. The model is non-proprietary and the training sets and validation sets can be downloaded from the internet. A summary of this information is presented by the applicant. Model predictivity could be improved by the assignment of additional substances into the training set. Inclusion of additional structural fragments and expansion of sub-structure correction factors and related rules. In addition, rules for stereochemical effects could feasibly improve modelling.
