Preliminary Visual Estimation of the n-Octanol solubility

10 mg of the test item were stirred with different amounts of n-octanol at room temperature and visually checked for any undissolved particles.

Conclusions:
The n-octanol/water partition coefficient (log Pow) of the test item at 20 °C was determined to be -5.70.
Executive summary:

The n-octanol/water partition coefficient of the test item was evaluated in a study conducted according to the EU Method A.8, OECD Guideline 107 and OECD Guideline 117. Flask method was used for this purpose.

Based on the findings of the study, the n-octanol/water partition coefficient (log Pow) of test item at 20 °C was determined to be -5.70 (Pow = 1.99E-6).
