Conclusions:

Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the solubility of the test substance, C14 ADBAC, according to the OECD 105 Guideline and EU Method A.6, in compliance with GLP. The water solubility was conducted by the flask method following a preliminary examination, in purified water and in buffer solutions at pH 5, 7 and 9. Preliminary tests were conducted by shaking a known mass (approximately 1 g) of C14 ADBAC with increasing volumes of each buffer solution until dissolution was achieved. Solubilities in excess of 100 g/L were indicated and the definitive tests were thus performed by the flask method. The recovery of C14 ADBAC from fortified control samples was deemed to be acceptable, and thus no correction was necessary to the determined sample concentrations. No significant interfering peaks were evident in blank control solutions. Under study conditions, the solubility of the test substance was found to be 44, 62, 50 and 41 g/L in purified water, pH 5 buffer, pH 7 buffer and pH 9 buffer respectively (Sydney 2007).

The plot of the surface tension as function of the logarithm of the concentration was drawn for preliminary and main test. The preliminary and main test showed that the c.m.c. can be found in the concentration range of 101 to 115 mg/L.

Conclusions:
Under study conditions, water solubility as critical micelle concentration of the test substance at 20°C was determined to be 101-105 mg/L, indicating moderate solubility in water.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the water solubility as critical micelle concentration (CMC) of the test substance, C14 ADBAC (purity: 99.55%), according to the ISO 4311, in compliance with GLP. During the study, the plot of the surface tension as function of the logarithm of the test substance concentration was drawn for preliminary and main tests. The preliminary and main test graph plot showed that the c.m.c. can be found in the concentration range of 101 to 115 mg/L. Under study conditions, water solubility as critical micelle concentration of the test substance at 20°C was determined to be 101-115 mg/L, indicating moderate solubility in water (Maike, 2018).

Description of key information

Water solubility of the test substance was determined using flask method, according to the OECD 105 Guideline and EU method A.6 (Sydent, 2007) as well as using CMC method, according to ISO 4311 (Maike, 2018).

Key value for chemical safety assessment
