Details on results:

For the 3 main components of V3000 comprising >50% of V3000, Log Kow has been calculated as follows:
Log Kow
C18:1 11.38
C18:2 11.16
C18:3 10.95
In order to estimate a range for the partition coefficient, further estimates were made for C12 (saturated) 2-ethylhexyl ester, calculated as Log Kow = 8.65; and C20 (saturated) 2-ethylhexyl ester, calculated as Log Kow =12.58.

For the 3 main components of V3000 (comprising >50% of V3000), the log Kow has been calculated to be:

C18:1 11.38

C18:2 11.16

C18:3 10.95

In order to estimate a range for the partition coefficient, further estimates were made for C12 (saturated) 2-ethylhexyl ester, calculated as Log Kow = 8.65 and C20 (saturated) 2-ethylhexyl ester, calculated as Log Kow =12.58.

In conclusion, the partition coefficient of V3000 is in the range 8.5 ≤ Log Kow ≤ 12.6.

Conclusions:

The partition coefficient of V3000 was calculated using EPIsuite to be 8.5 ≤ Log Kow ≤ 12.6

Executive summary:

In conclusion, the partition coefficient of V3000 is in the range 8.5 ≤ Log Kow ≤ 12.6

Adequacy of study:

key study

Study period:

guideline study

Qualifier:

according to guideline

Guideline:

OECD Guideline 117 (Partition Coefficient (n-octanol / water), HPLC Method)

Deviations:

Remarks:

Under the conditions employed, no peaks were detected using the Diode Array Detector. Therefore a log Pow could not be calculated using the OECD guideline 117 method.

GLP compliance:

no

Type of method:

HPLC method

Partition coefficient type:

octanol-water

Analytical method:

HPLC mean retention times and Log Pow data for reference compounds used in study CES100002.

Reference compound	Detector	Mean retention time (mins)	Calculated log Pow
Thiourea	DAD	2.023
Naphthalene	DAD	4.231	3.58
Biphenyl	DAD	4.859	4.05
Phenanthrene	DAD	5.796	4.58
Bibenzyl	DAD	5.964	4.66
Fluoranthene	DAD	6.963	5.09
Triphenylamine	DAD	9.055	5.75

Conclusions:

LANKROPLAST V3000 appeared to partially dissolve after sonication in the mobile phase of 80:20 acetonitrile:water used in this study. However there was no measureable log Kow in this study since no peaks were detected. As no peaks were detected and due to the limited solubility of LANKROPLAST V3000 in the mobile phase, this would suggest that the log Kow value is greater than the highest standard used (Triphenylamine), which has a log Kow value of 5.7.

The partition coefficient of Lankroplast V3000 was also calculated using EPIsuite and it is found to be in the range 8.5 ≤ Log Kow ≤ 12.6.
