Distribution modelling
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- distribution modelling
- Type of information:
- calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
- Remarks:
- Migrated phrase: estimated by calculation
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: The level III fugacity modelling of EPIWEB v 4.1 was used which is a direct adaption of the methodology of Mackay’s EQC model, which is a well established and validated distribution model.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The estimated weighted average of percent distribution and half-life of C12-14 ADBAC in air, water, soil and sediment, using Fugacity level III model (EPIWEB v 4.1) was found to be 0.03, 6.03, 49.01 and 44.93% and 0.257, 21.43 , 42.87 and 192.91 days respectively.
- Executive summary:
Distribution data in air, water, soil and sediment was estimated using Mackay level III fugacity modelling (EPIWEB v 4.1). This model is a direct adaption of the methodology of Mackay’s EQC model, and is a well established and validated distribution model. The estimated weighted average of percent distribution and half-life of C12 -14 ADBAC in air, water, soil and sediment, using Fugacity level III model (EPIWEB v 4.1) was found to be 0.03, 6.03, 49.01 and 44.93% and 0.257, 21.43 , 42.87 and 192.91 days respectively.
