Log Kow  = 23.5058

Conclusions:
The estimated log Pow (Kow) of menhaden oil is 23.5058.
Executive summary:

The log Pow of menhaden oil is determined with EPI Suite v.4.11. The calculation is based on molecular fragments. The log Pow (Kow) is 23.5058 and indicates that menhaden oil is a lipophilic substance.

Log Kow  = 22.4625

Conclusions:
The estimated log Pow (Kow) of Glycerides, C16-18 is 22.4625.
Executive summary:

The log Pow of Glycerides, C16 -18 is determined with EPI Suite v.4.11. The calculation is based on molecular fragments. The log Pow (Kow) is 22.4625 and indicates that menhaden oil is a lipophilic substance.

Description of key information

Two calculations based on molecular fragments yield Log Pow > 22 for menhaden oil and other triglycerides of long chain fatty acids. Therefore, menhaden oil is expected to be a highly lipophilic substance.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Log Kow (Log Pow):
22.4
