Specific details on test material used for the study:
GR-50-1408 is the Givaudan identification code which was employed for ROSYFOLIA during the early, developmental and testing period.
Radiolabelling:
no
Test temperature:
HPLC column at 35 °C during separation.
The determination was performed at 35 °C (temperature of the column), but the value obtained above can be considered to represent the value at an unspecified, probably ambient temperature since no mention is made in the guidelines of the temperature at which the tabulated reference substances log Koc values were determined. Adsorption coefficients of the test and reference substances are assumed to vary with temperature in the same way.
Details on study design: HPLC method:
Reverse phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography on cyanopropyl-modified silicia stationary phase containing lipophilic and polar moieties, is used.

While passing through the column among with the mobile phase the test substance interacts with the stationary phase. As a result of the partitioning between the mobile and stationary phase the test substance is retarded. The dual-composition of the stationary phase having polar and non-polar sites allows for interaction of polar and non-polar groups of a molecule in a similar way as it is the case for organic matter in soil or sewage sludge matrices. This enables the relationship between the retention time on the column and the adsorption coefficient on organic matter to be established.

A solution of the test substance was prepared (10.0 mg in 25 ml methanol/water 55/45 v/v).

After equilibration of the HPLC system, the calibration mixture was injected first, followed by the test chemical solution twice and the calibration mixture again.

Retention times were measures and averaged and the decimal logarithms of the capacity factors k were calculated. The linear regression parameters of the relationship
log Koc = f(log k)
were also calculated from the data obtained with the calibration mixture and, therewith, log Koc of the test substance was determined from its measured capacity factor.

Finally, solutions of the reference substances were injected individually to confirm the peak assignment.

Detailed results are given in appendix 1 and illustrated by the graph in appendix 2 of the attached study report.

The chromatograms of GR-50-1408 show three peaks at average retention times of 5.28 minutes (~2.5% peak area, can be assigned to non-cyclopropanates products present in the batch tested); the main peak 5.76 minutes (~92.1% peak area) and 6.45 minutes (~5.4% peak area) corresponding to adsorption coefficients (log value) of 2.89, 3,14 and 3.41.
Therefore Adsorption coefficient of (Koc) of GR-50-1408:
Log Koc = 3.14

yes
Conclusions:
The chromatograms of GR-50-1408 show three peaks at average retention times of 5.28 minutes (~2.5% peak area, can be assigned to non-cyclopropanates products present in the batch tested); the main peak 5.76 minutes (~92.1% peak area) and 6.45 minutes (~5.4% peak area) corresponding to adsorption coefficients (log value) of 2.89, 3,14 and 3.41.
Therefore Adsorption coefficient of (Koc) of GR-50-1408:

Log Koc = 3.14 / Koc = 1380
