Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
Justification for type of information:
QSAR prediction from an well known and acknowledged tool. See below under 'Overall remarks, attachments' for applicability domain.
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: REACH guidance on QSARs: Chapter R.6. QSARs and grouping of chemicals
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Since the test substance is a UVCB constituting about 20-30% quaternised amino acids/peptides and 65-75% water, <10% mineral salts and <2% free amino acids, the partition coefficient values were estimated only for the quaternised amino acids/peptides constituents followed by the determination of an overall weighted-average value using the mole fractions of the individual major quaternised amino acids/peptide constituents.

Conclusions:
Using the KOWWIN v1.68 program (EPI Suite v4.11), the weigthted average partition coefficient of the test substance was calculated to be -1.45.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient value for the test substance were estimated using the KOWWIN v1.68 program (EPI Suite v4.11). Since the test substance is a UVCB constituting about 20-30% quaternised amino acids/peptides and 65-75% water, <10% mineral salts and <2% free amino acids, the partition coefficient values were estimated only for the quaternised amino acids/peptides constituents followed by the determination of an overall weighted-average value using the mole fractions of the individual major quaternised amino acids/peptide constituents. SMILES was used as the input parameter. The estimated partition coefficient of the relevant constituents ranged from -1.57 to -1.28 leading to weighted average partition coefficient value of the test substance to be -1.45 (US EPA, 2018) and indicating that the test substance is highly soluble in water (US EPA, 2012). The estimates for the major constituents are considered to be reliable, as they fall within of the applicability domain.
