12.3 Bioaccumulative potential
An estimated BCF value of 3 was calculated for Bantrol(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 0.90(1) and a recommended regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this BCF value suggests that bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC).

The Koc of Bantrol is estimated as approximately 75(SRC), using a measured log Kow of 0.90(1) and a regression-derived equation(2,SRC). According to a recommended classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that Bantrol has high mobility in soil(SRC). Alkaline soils adsorbed small amounts of Bantrol on soil particles(4).
