Results and discussion

Partition coefficient
Type:
log Pow
Partition coefficient:
5.7

Any other information on results incl. tables

The partition coefficient was calculated based on a calibration curve using 6 regerence items. The difference between the three measurements of the reference mixture was less than the given 0.1 log units. Therefore, the study was considered valid.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The logarithmic partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of the test substance was determined to be 5.7 using the HPLC method.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the n-octanol/water partition coefficient of 12 -hydroxystearic acid according to OECD Guideline 117 using the HPLC method.

The partition coefficient was calculated based on a calibration curve using 6 reference items.

The logarithmic partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) of the test substance was determined to be 5.7.
