2. The dissolved-phase fraction (fdissolved) is a function of the characteristics and level of suspended solids and dissolved organic matter, which may be estimated from the following relationship, where [SS] is suspended solid content, [DOC] is DOC concentration, kd is partition coefficient between the dissolved phase and the suspended solids, and kDOC is the partition coefficient between the ...

A new possibility for estimating the octanol/water coefficient (log P) was investigated using only one descriptor, the semi-empirical electrotopological index (I(SET)). The predictability of four octanol/water partition coefficient (log P) calculation models was compared using a set of 131 aliphatic organic compounds from five different classes. Log P values were calculated employing atomic-con...
