- Endpoint:
- water solubility
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 13 June 2013 - 19 June 2013
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see "Remark"
- Remarks:
- The determination of water solubility was performed using the OECD Guideline No 105 (column elution). This study was considered as reliable with restrictions because not enough details on quantification of the substance were reported in the report.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- reference to same study
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- reference to other study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 105 (Water Solubility)
- Version / remarks:
- (27 July 1995)
- Deviations:
- no
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- This method is based on the elution of a test substance with water from a micro-column which is charged with an inert support material (celite), previously coated with an excess of the test substance. The water solubility is given by the mass concentration of the eluate when this has reached a plateau as a function of time. A second experiment is performed at half the flow rate of the first. If the results of the two runs are in agreement, the test is satisfactory. If the measured solubility is higher with the lower flow rate, then the halving of the flow rate must continue until two successive runs give the same solubility.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of method:
- column elution method
- Key result
- Water solubility:
- ca. 1 168 mg/L
- Temp.:
- 20 °C
- pH:
- >= 5 - <= 7
- Remarks on result:
- other: Measured pH : pH=5.5 at the beginning of the both experiment and pH=7 at the end of the both experiment. The relative difference between the results of the two experiments is 6.16%, less than 30% as required by the OECD 105 - elution column method.
- Details on results:
- Mean of two solubility values obtained in two different experiments.
Concentrations observed at 25 mL/h: mean of the five last samples = 1204 mg/L (The relative difference = 18.29% : less than 30% as required by the OECD 105 - elution column method)
Concentrations observed at 12.5 mL/h: mean of the five last samples = 1132 mg/L (The relative difference = 7.79 % : less than 30% as required by the OECD 105 - elution column method) - Conclusions:
- The mean of the two solubility values obtained in the two different experiments is (1204 + 1132) / 2 = 1168 mg/L.
Interpretation of results: easily soluble (1 g/L - 10 g/L)
The relative difference between the results of the two experiments is (1204 – 1132) / 1168 = 6.16%.
The mean values obtained from two experiments did not differ by more than 30%, so these results are valid. - Executive summary:
The determination of the water solubility of dihydroterpineol multiconstituent was performed using the column elution method (OECD Guideline 105).
Due to the physicochemical properties of the test item (stability, volatility, adsorption on glass), the samples were analyzed as soon as possible after sampling. This precaution is crucial in order to avoid underestimation and variations of the measured concentrations.
Two independent experiments were carried out. The concentration of the substance was regularly measured by GC-FID (Gas Chromatography with flame ionization detector). The water solubility was recorded when the concentration reached a plateau.
The water solubility of dihydroterpineol multiconstituent obtained by the column elution method is 1168 mg/L. This value is the mean of two independent measurements.

- Deviations:
- no
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- In a stirring vessel maintained at 20 +/- 0.5°C, ultra-pure water covered by a thin layer of the test item (~2 mm thickness) is slowly stirred. The speed was adjusted so that a minimal vortex is formed. The aim of this method is to prevent the formation of emulsions when saturating water. That can occur with the shake flask method and lead to a solubility overestimation. The water solubility is given by the mass concentration in water when a plateau as a function of time is reached. A second experiment is performed in the same conditions
