Explanation Algorithms for Log P:
The logP prediction module offers two different predictive algorithms within ACD/Percepta software—Classic and GALAS (Global, Adjusted Locally According to Similarity). A Consensus logP based on these two models is also available. Experts can investigate each model manually to decide which is more appropriate for particular chemical space, and provide colleagues with guidelines for use.

Classic
The primary algorithm calculates logP using the principle of isolating carbons. Well-characterized logP contributions have been compiled for atoms, structural fragments, and intramolecular interactions derived from >12,000 experimental logP values. A secondary algorithm is applied when unknown fragments are presented. A detailed description of the original algorithm may be found at "Petrauskas, A., Kolovanov, E., ACD/Log P Method Description. Persp. in Drug Design, 19:1–19,2000".
Source of experimental data—peer-reviewed scientific journals and the BioByte Star list.
Provides a detailed calculation protocol with references for known fragments, and indication of approximated contributions, with mapping onto the structure for easy interpretation.

Conclusions:
Log P correlates with the degree of polymerisation of the polyglycerol backbone and grade of esterification.
With increasing of the degree of polymerisation of polyglycerol, the components are relatively more hydrophilic. With each added ester group, the lipophilic character increase.

4. SCIENTIFIC VALIDITY OF THE (Q)SAR MODEL
see attached justification

5. APPLICABILITY DOMAIN
Currently there is no universally accepted definition of model domain. However, users may wish to consider the possibility that log P estimates are less accurate for compounds outside the MW range of the training set compounds, and/or that have more instances of a given fragment than the maximum for all training set compounds. It is also possible that a compound may have a functional group(s) or other structural features not represented in the training set, and for which no fragment coefficient was developed.

6. ADEQUACY OF THE RESULT
Since the substance falls within the molecular weight range predictivity of the model used and there are no functional groups in the molecule that are not represented in the training set, the prediction is sufficient to provide reliable results for classification and labelling and risk assessment.

Remarks on result:
other: Additional compounds elute between 70 and 80 minutes in presence of 99% acetonitrile and 1% water as eluent. These compounds could not be eluted under the isocratic conditions applied in the test.

The technical sample polyglycerol-3 elutes within the dead time (t0) of both HPLC tests. The result of the isocratic HPLC analysis is, the test item constitutes of multiple components covering a log P range from approximate 0 – 3.6. These detected components could be polyglycerol monoesters, the experimental values correlate

with the estimated values.

The chromatogram shows, that additional compounds elute between 70 and 80 minutes in presence of 99% acetonitrile and 1% water as eluent. These compounds could not be eluted under the isocratic conditions described above.

It is not possible to find isocratic HPLC conditions for all constituents of the test item. Thus, the partition coefficient of characteristic single structures were estimated by QSAR.

Conclusions:
The log Kow of polyglycerin caprylate/caprinate was determined usingn the HPLC method. The test item consists of multiple components covering a log P range from approximate 0 – 3.6. However, as is was not possible to find isocratic HPLC conditions for all constituents, the partition coefficients of characteristic single structures were estimated by QSAR.
