Principles of method if other than guideline:
Since the test substance is a UVCB constituting about 15-25% quaternised amino acids and 60-70% water, <15% mineral salts and <2% free amino acids, the vapoure values were estimated only for the major quaternised amino acids constituents followed by the determination of an overall weighted-average value using the mole fractions of the individual major quaternised amino acids 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 -0.81.
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 15-25% quaternised amino acids and 60-70% water, <15% mineral salts and <2% free amino acids, the vapoure values were estimated only for the major quaternised amino acids constituents followed by the determination of an overall weighted-average value using the mole fractions of the individual major quaternised amino acids constituents. SMILES codes were used as the input parameter for the partition coefficient estimation for the individual constituents. The estimated partition coefficient of individual constituents ranged from -1.5 to -0.44, leading to weighted average partition coefficient value of the test substance to be -0.81 (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 the applicability domain.
