REPETITIONS
- Number of determinations: Two.

EVALUATION
- Calculation of capacity factors k': Calculated as a ratio of retention time of retained compounds relative to unretained substances after determination of the column dead time.
- Calculation of retention times: Determined empirically relative to the known column dead time.
- Determination of the log Koc value: Capacity factors (log k') for reference substances were plotted against absorption coefficients (log Koc). The log Koc for the test item was then calculated using the resultant equation for the calibration curve and the experimentally determined log k'.

Conclusions:

The test item adsorption coefficient (log Koc) for soil/sewage sludge according to OECD Guideline 121 was estimated to be log Koc = 3.36 for three constituents at 30°C by HPLC analysis.

Executive summary:

The study was performed to OECD TG 121 and EU Method C.19 to assess the adsorption coefficient (Koc) of the test substance in accordance with GLP using a high performance chromatography system. The retention times of the test substance and selected reference items were accurately measured using HPLC fitted with a cyanopropyl column. The retention times were consistent over the course of the study. The dead time of the instrument was also measured and capacity factors were calculated for each substance. Calibration curves were constructed by plotting the capacity factor (log k') for the reference substances against their adsorption coefficients (log Koc). Linear regression analysis was performed and this showed a reasonable relationship between the capacity factors and the adsorption coefficients. The test was performed at a singular pH 6.4 as the test item does not possess ionisable moieties in an environmentally relevant pH range. The adsorption coefficient of the test item was estimated using the calibration curve constructed from all reference items. Due to the ability of the cyano column the three constituents were not resolved but elute as one peak. Under the conditions of this study, the test substance adsorption coefficient (log Koc) for soil/sewage sludge was estimated to be log Koc 3.36 for three constituents at 30°C and pH 6.4 by HPLC analysis.
