Conclusions:
Partition coefficient
The partition coefficient (including effect of pH) has been determined using the HPLC method. The results indicate that pH has a significant effect on partition coefficient.
HPLC method
pH=4 Log(P) = 2.02
pH=7 Log(P) = 1.31
pH=9 Log(P) = < 0.3

Substances having a log10Pow greater than 3 are regarded as having the potential to bioaccumulate in the environment, these results are significantly lower than 3 at all pH levels tested.
Executive summary:
