Conclusions:
Using BCFBAF v3.01 the BCF value of the test item was calculated to be 394.9 L/kg. The substance is within the applicability domain of the model.
Executive summary:

The BCF value was calculated using BCFBAF v3.01 as part of EPISuite v4.11 from US Environmental Protection Agency. The BCF value of the test item was calculated to be 394.9 L/kg (EPI Suite, 2014).

The adequacy of a prediction depends on the following conditions:

a) the (Q)SAR model is scientifically valid: the scientific validity is established according to the OECD principles for (Q)SAR validation;

b) the (Q)SAR model is applicable to the query chemical: a (Q)SAR is applicable if the query chemical falls within the defined applicability domain of the model;

c) the (Q)SAR result is reliable: a valid (Q)SAR that is applied to a chemical falling within its applicability domain provides a reliable result;

d) the (Q)SAR model is relevant for the regulatory purpose.

 

For assessment and justification of these 4 requirements the QMRF and QPRF files were developed and attached to this study record.
