Results

Thermostated glass flasks containing the aqueous phase and n-octanol were slowly stirred, after dosing the test item dissolved in octanol, until equilibrium distribution of the test item between the two phases was achieved. The temperature was kept constant at 25 °C ± 1 °C. The concentration of the test item in the phases was measured by HPLC/UV. The partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) log Pow was calculated. The equilibrium distribution was defined to be achieved, when four sampling intervals separated by at least 5 hours yielded similar log Pow values, expressed by a plateau with zero slope. The testing was performed in triplicate.

The results of the individual measurements of the slow-stirring test and the calculation of the log Pow values are given in the table below.
