- Executive summary:
EU Method A.8. – The partition coefficient of the test item was determined using the estimation method (solubility ratio). The procedures employed were designed to be compatible with Method A.8., partition coefficient, of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
Due to the test item containing 24.1 % (w/w) water, this test was conducted on a dry basis. The test item was dried by the Sponsor prior to testing using rotary evaporation. Aliquots of dried test item (22.0 - 50.3 mg) were placed in a glass vessel, n-octanol was added in a stepwise manner. After each addition of n-octanol, the vessel was shaken for at least 10 min. The sample was then visually checked for undissolved test item. If the test item was not dissolved further n-octanol was added in the manner previously described. The test was performed at 20 ± 2.0 °C.
For the test item an estimated partition coefficient of log Pow = -1.9 to -1.6 at a temperature of 20 ± 2.0 °C was determined.

- weight of evidence
- Study period:
- 14 December 2017 - 26 April 2018
- Reliability:
- 3 (not reliable)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- unsuitable test system
- Remarks:
- Whilst the study has been conducted according to the guideline method under GLP conditions. The test item is a complex substance that has been determined to be surface active. As such this study must be regarded as not reliable. The nature of the test item means that there is the potential for secondary column interactions to occur, leading to a potential overestimation of the partition coefficient. To mitigate against this phenomenon, this study is being used as a part of a weight of evidence for this endpoint.

- Executive summary:
EU Method A.8. – The partition coefficient of the test item was determined using the HPLC and calculation methods. The procedures employed were designed to be compatible with Method A.8., partition coefficient, of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
Analysis was performed using a solid phase of long hydrocarbon chains chemically bound onto silica (Luna 5µ C18(2) 100A; 250 x 3.0 mm), with a mobile phase mixture of 67.5 % methanol and 32.5 % ultra-pure water. A PDA detector was used at 220 nm to detect the reference solution, an ELS detector was used to detect the test item. Reference items were used to determine column dead time and regression coefficients.
For the test item a partition coefficient of log Pow ≤ 3.23 was determined at a temperature of 20 °C ± 1 °C.

Data Evaluation
The partition coefficient is estimated from the ratio of the solubilities of the test item in the pure solvents.

The second test was performed to show that a longer shaking time does not lead to a higher solubility. The lower limit value from Test 1 and the limit value from Test 2 have been used in the subsequent calculations.
The critical micelle concentration of the undried test item was measured using ISO 4311:1979 and mean measured value of 9536 mg/l was determined(1). Regarding the water content of the undried test item of 24.1 %, the water solubility of the dried test item is calculated to 7238 mg/l. As the test item is surface active, the critical micelle concentration of the test item is used as a surrogate value for the water solubility.
Based on the above results the maximum and minimum estimated Powcan be calculated as:
Pow max= maximum saturation concentration n-octanol/minimum saturation concentration water = 200 mg/l / 7238 mg/l = 0.028.
Log Pow max= Log 0.028 = -1.6.
Pow min= minimum saturation concentration n-octanol/maximum saturation concentration water = 101 mg/l / 7238 mg/l = 0.014.
Log Pow min= Log 0.014= -1.9.
Therefore, the log POW is calculated to be between -1.9 and -1.6 at 20 ± 2 °C.

Data Evaluation
Calculation of log k – The corresponding logarithms of the capacity factors, log k, were calculated from the retention times and the dead time.
Calibration Graph – A correlation graph of log k versus log Pow was plotted.
Sample Results – The partition coefficient of the test item was obtained by interpolation from the calibration graph, using the calculated capacity factor.

*The retention time of the test item was detected using an Evaporative Light Scattering Detector (ELSD). Therefore the detected retention time was corrected by the time shift of 0.065 min between PDA detector (used for reference items) and ELS detector (used for test item).
**The test item eluates as two separate signal areas. Therefore the start of the first signal area and the end of the second signal area were used to calculate the range of the log Pow.

- Log Kow (Log Pow):

- at the temperature of:
- 20 °C
Additional information
The partition coefficient of the test item was determined using the HPLC and calculation methods. The procedures employed were designed to be compatible with Method A.8., partition coefficient, of Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008.
HPLC Method: Analysis was performed using a solid phase of long hydrocarbon chains chemically bound onto silica (Luna 5µ C18(2) 100A; 250 x 3.0 mm), with a mobile phase mixture of 67.5 % methanol and 32.5 % ultra-pure water. A PDA detector was used at 220 nm to detect the reference solution, an ELS detector was used to detect the test item. Reference items were used to determine column dead time and regression coefficients. For the test item a partition coefficient of log Pow ≤ 3.23 was determined at a temperature of 20 °C ± 1 °C.
As part of the wider testing programme it was determined experimentally that the test item is surface active (C. Bär, EU Method A.5. (2017)). As per EU Method A.8., neither the shake-flask method nor the HPLC method is applicable to surface active substances. Potentially misleading results may arise due to emulsification (flask method) or secondary column interactions (HPLC Method). As such the HPLC Method should be regarded as supplementary information as part of a weight of evidence based on the calculation method.
Estimation Method (Solubility Ratio): Due to the test item containing 24.1 % (w/w) water, this test was conducted on a dry basis. The test item was dried by the Sponsor prior to testing using rotary evaporation. Aliquots of dried test item (22.0 - 50.3 mg) were placed in a glass vessel, n-octanol was added in a stepwise manner. After each addition of n-octanol, the vessel was shaken for at least 10 min. The sample was then visually checked for undissolved test item. If the test item was not dissolved further n-octanol was added in the manner previously described. The test was performed at 20 ± 2.0 °C. For the test item an estimated partition coefficient of log Pow = -1.9 to -1.6 at a temperature of 20 ± 2.0 °C was determined.
A log Kow value of -1.6 was used for chemical safety assessment.
