Any other information on results incl. tables
For 24 pesticides and 17 Australian soils (organic matter contents 0.19 -6.62%) the following relation was found: logKom = 0.52 logKow + 0.69. Using this equation Kd was calculated to 0.59 for veratrole (logKow = 2).
For the same 24 pesticides and the actual soil (organic matter content 1.09%) the following relation was found: LogKom = 0.59 logKow + 0.62. Using this equation Kd was calculated to 0.69 for veratrole (logKow = 2).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- no
- Remarks:
- A number of information necessary to validate the quality of the data is not given in the paper.
- Conclusions:
- Adsorption coefficient was found as Koc = 0.67 (referred to as Kd) for one Australian soil with organic matter content of 1.09%.
This value fits very well with values that may be calculated from equations found for 24 pesticides and 17 Australian soils with organic matter contents of 0.19-6.62%, and the same 24 pesticides and the specific soil (organic matter content 1.09%): Koc equals 0.59 and 0.69, respectively.
