RESULTS
- In the chromatogram of the test solution, three major peaks and several small test item peaks were observed.
- The equation of the regression line was:

log k’ = 0.320 x log Pow – 0.492 (r = 0.997, n = 12).

CONCLUSIONS
- The HPLC method at pH 7 was applied for the determination of the partition coefficient (Pow) of the test material.
- The Pow values of the test material ranged from 2.1 x10^0 to 1.1x10^5
- The log Pow values of the test material ranged from 0.3 to 5.0
- The Log Pow of the three main components was 4.7 (20 %), 4.8 (27 %) and 4.9 (29 %).

Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the log Pow range of the test material peaks was 0.3 - 5.0. The log Pow values for the main components were: 4.7 (20 %), 4.8 (27 %) and 4.9 (29 %).
Executive summary:

The partition coefficient of the test material was investigated in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 117, EU Method A.24 and OPPTS 830.7570, under GLP conditions.

The HPLC method at pH 7 was applied for the determination of the partition coefficient of the test material.

A 1 000 mg/L stock solution of the test material was prepared in methanol. The stock solution was 100-fold diluted with 75/25 (v/v) methanol/buffer pH 7. The final concentration of the test material solution was 10.0 mg/L. Reference substance solutions were also prepared using methanol or methanol/buffer. The reference substance and test material solutions were injected in duplicate. Blank solutions were analysed by single injection.

In the chromatogram of the test solution, three major peaks and several small test material peaks were observed. The equation of the regression line was: log k’ = 0.320 x log Pow – 0.492 (r = 0.997, n = 12).

Under the conditions of this study the log Pow range of the test material peaks was 0.3 - 5.0. The log Pow values for the main components were: 4.7 (20 %), 4.8 (27 %) and 4.9 (29 %).
