The analytical method (HPLC-DAD, external standard) for the determination of the test item 4,4-Biphenol was validated and tested with satisfactory results in regard to linearity, accuracy, precision and specificity.

Conclusions:
The solubility of the test item was determined to be 33.7 mg/L (pH 6.5) at 20 +/- 0.5 °C. The substance is considered pratically insoluble (solubility < 0.1 g/L)
Executive summary:

The water solubility of 4,4-Biphenol was determined according to OECD guideline 105 (1995) and Council Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, Method A.6 from 2012-07-23 to 2012-08-03 at Dr.U.Noack-Laboratorien, 31157 Sarstedt, Germany.

The decision for employing the flask method was based on preliminary testing (non GLP), where a solubility of approximately 10 mg/L was observed.

The solubility of the test item 4,4-Biphenol was determined using the flask method at 20 ± 0.5 °C with preincubation at 30 ± 0.5 °C.

The analytical method (HPLC-DAD, external standard) for the determination of the test item 4,4-Biphenol was validated and tested with satisfactory results in regard to linearity, accuracy, precision and specificity.

The water solubility of 4,4-Biphenol was determined to be 33.7 mg/L (20 °C, pH 6.5).

Description of key information
