Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Version / remarks:
(Q)SAR
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Ready Biodegradability model (IRFMN) (version 1.0.9)
QSAR classification model for Ready Biodegradability based on fragments built by SarPy software.
Developed by Politecnico di Milano, Italy and Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche Mario Negri, Italy.
LogP model (Meylan/Kowwin) (version 1.1.4)
LogP prediction based on Meylan work (W.M. Meylan, P.H. Howard, "Atom/fragment contribution method
for estimating octanol-water partition coefficients", 1995, J. Pharm. Sci. 84:83-92) and implemented in EPI
Suite software as KowWin. Model developed inside the VEGA platform.
