Test System: This method utilises a high performance liquid chromatograph with UV/VIS detector, reversed phase column and an aqueous mobile phase. Details are given below.

Performance of the Test:
Test Item Solution:
FP-100 (37.92 mg) was dissolved in acetonitrile (100 ml) to prepare a stock solution of 379.2 µg/mI. The stock solution1 (1 ml) was diluted with a solvent mixture of water and acetonitrile (45:55; v/v) to 10 ml to obtain a standard solution of 37.92 µg/mI. The pH value of the test item solution was determined to be 6.9. This test item solution was injected three times.

Reference Solutions:
The reference items were chosen from the list given in the OECD Guideline No. 121 and EC Directive C.19.

Stock solutions of the reference items were prepared as described:
10.74mg of isoproturon, 12.90mg of linuron, 9.90mg of 2,4-DDT, 11.27mg of pyrazophos, 13.34mg of diclofop-methyl and 10.32 mg of acetanilicle were each dissolved in 10 ml of acetonitrile.

A combined reference solution was prepared by transferring 65 µl of the acetanilide stock solution, 45 µl of the isoproturon stock solution, 30 µl of the linuron stock solution, 200 µl of the pyrazophos stock solution, 40 µl of the diclofop-methyl stock solution and 85 µl of the 2,4-DDT stock solution into one volumetric flask and diluting to a volume of 10 ml with a solvent mixture of water and acetonitrile (45:55; v/v). This reference solution was injected six times.

Sodium nitrate (11.94 mg) was dissolved in 20 ml of acetonitrile to obtain a stock solution. The stock solution (20 µl) was diluted to I ml with a solvent mixture of water and acetonitrile (45:55; v/v), This sodium nitrate solution was injected twice for the determination of the dead time of the HPLC system.

Conclusions:

In conclusion, the log of the adsorption coefficient (Koc) of FP-100 was estimated to be log Koc > 5.63 which is equal to a Koc value of > 426580 using the HPLC method. This value indicates that FP-100 is immobile and remains preferably in soil.

Description of key information

In conclusion, the log of the adsorption coefficient (Koc) of FP-100 was estimated to be log Koc > 5.63 which is equal to a Koc value of > 426580 using the HPLC method. This value indicates that FP-100 is immobile and remains preferably in soil.

Additional information

The test item solution was injected three times and the combined reference solution was injected six times. The log Koc of the test item was calculated using a regression curve (log k vs. log Koc) and was found to be 7.4 (main peak) and 9.2 (second peak), which is equal to a K value of 26588297 (main peak) and 1450231106 (second peak). The retention times of both test item peaks were higher than the retention time of the highest reference item used (2,4-DDT) with log Koc 5.63, which is equal to a Koc 426580. In the present study the reference items covered the range of log Koc 1.25 to log Koc 5.63.   The chromatography of the test item resulted in two peaks. The retention times of the peaks were reproducible. The HPLC method was therefore considered to be suitable for the purpose of the study. The capacity factor (k’) was calculated for each reference item using the retention times. The tabulated values represent rounded mean results, which were obtained by calculation using the exact raw data.   In conclusion, the log of the adsorption coefficient (Koc) of FP-100 was estimated to be log Koc > 5.63 which is equal to a Koc value of > 426580 using the HPLC method. This value indicates that FP-100 is immobile and remains preferably in soil.
