Conclusions:
The experimentally obtained value of log Kow of isoborneol at 20.0 °C is 2.92.
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient 1-octanol/water (log Kow) of the test item was determined according to EEC method A.8 and OECD Guideline107, using the Shake Flask Method. The content of the substance in l-octanol and water was determined by a validated GC analytical method. The partition coefficient 1-octanol/water (log Kow) at 20.0°C of isoborneol was found to be 2.92 ± 0.03 (pH 6.58 - 6.80).
