Details on results:

The test article was quantified in each of the two phases after equilibration by means of GC/FID. The n-octanol phase was directly analyzed after dilution with acetone. Due to low concentrations of the test substance present in the aqueous phase, the test article was extracted from this phase with n-pentane. The extract was analyzed by GC. Validation of the extraction step was achieved by means of three spiking experiments with concentration levels of 1.00, 2.50 and 3.50 µg/mL. The obtained recoveries of the quality control (QC) samples ranged from 129.5% to 146.3%. Due to these high recoveries, the test samples (aqueous-phase) were corrected for the mean value of the QC recoveries. The mass balances indicated that the total quantity of the test substance originally introduced into the two-phase system was completely recovered after equilibration: total recoveries ranged from 100.1% to 110.7%.
