Results and discussion

Partition coefficient
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
< -3.48
Temp.:
21.2 °C
Remarks on result:
other: pH of n-octanol saturated water: 6.9. pH of stock solution: 7.0
Details on results:
The ultraviolet/visible spectra obtained from the organic phase sample analysis demonstrated that the absorbance at the specified wavelength was most likely due to baseline drift and not due to the presence of test item. The limit of quantification (LOQ) was assessed as the concentration of the lowest calibration standard (1.02 mg/L). The partition coefficient has been calculated using the LOQ for the organic phase and the overall result reported as a limit value.
The spectra of the aqueous and organic phase samples differed slightly resulting in a difference of wavelength selected for each analysis. This was most likely due to solvent matrix effects.

It is evident from the information obtained in the hydrolysis test and data relating to the pH of the test item in water that negligible hydrolysis of the sample solutions occurred during the course of the partition coefficient test.

As the test item was noted to contain numerous salted acid groups, testing was carried out at approximately neutral pH, with the test item in its ionised state.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Validation

The linearity of the detector response with respect to concentration was assessed over the concentration ranges of 10.2 to 51.0 mgll for the aqueous phase analysis and 0.545 to 10.9 mg/L for the organic phase analysis. These were satisfactory with correlation

coefficients of 0.999 and 1.000 being obtained for the aqueous and organic phase analyses respectively.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The partition coefficient of the test item has been determined to be less than 3.30E-04 at 21.2 ± 0.5 °C, log10 Pow <-3.48.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient of the test item TM10-099 was determined in a valid GLP study using the shake-flask method, designed to be compatible with OECD TG No 107 and EU Method A.8.

The method guideline states that the measurement of partition coefficient should be carried out on substances in their unionised form. However, since the test item contained numerous numerous salted acid groups, testing was carried out at approximately neutral pH with the test item in an ionised form.

The partition coefficient of the test item has been determined to be less than 3.30 x10-4 at 21.2 ± 0.5 °C at approximately neutral pH,

log10 Pow <-3.48.
