==============================

SMILES : OC(O)C(CL)(CL)CL

CHEM : 1,1-Ethanediol, 2,2,2-trichloro-

MOL FOR: C2 H3 CL3 O2

MOL WT : 165.40

--------------------------------- BCFBAF v3.01 --------------------------------

Summary Results:

Log BCF (regression-based estimate): 0.50 (BCF = 3.16 L/kg wet-wt)

Biotransformation Half-Life (days) : 0.0649 (normalized to 10 g fish)

Log BAF (Arnot-Gobas upper trophic): 0.21 (BAF = 1.63 L/kg wet-wt)

Log Kow (experimental): 0.99

Log Kow used by BCF estimates: 0.99

Equation Used to Make BCF estimate:

Log BCF = 0.50

Correction(s): Value

Correction Factors Not Used for Log Kow < 1

Estimated Log BCF = 0.500 (BCF = 3.162 L/kg wet-wt)

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not specified
Conclusions:
The estimated bioconcentration factor (BCF) for 2,2,2-trichloroethane-1,1-diol is 3.162 L/kg wet-wt which does not exceed the bioconcentration threshold of 2000. Thus it is concluded that 2,2,2-trichloroethane-1,1-diol is not expected to bioaccumulate in the food chain.
Executive summary:

The estimated bioconcentration factor (BCF) for 2,2,2-trichloroethane-1,1-diol is 3.162 L/kg wet-wt which does not exceed the bioconcentration threshold of 2000. Thus it is concluded that 2,2,2-trichloroethane-1,1-diol is not expected to bioaccumulate in the food chain.
