20 December 2017 READ-ACROSS STUDY / CW TX TERPENES / ACUTE ORAL TOXICITY I&B9W8768R001F1.0

According to Annex VII, 8.5 of the REACh Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, acute toxicity by the oral route is standard information required for the registration of substances manufactured or imported in quantities of one tonne per year or more. However, according to Annex XI, 1.5 of the REACH Regulation, Read-across and grouping approaches can be used to adapt the standard testing regime. This read-across study report follows notably the recommendations made by the European Chemicals Agency in its “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.6 – QSARs and grouping of chemicals” (ECHA, 2008) and in its document “Read-Across Assessment Framework (RAAF)” (ECHA, 2017).

A read-across approach appears appropriate to predict the endpoint “, Acute toxicity by the oral route” for the substance Cedarwood Texas oil distilled - Terpenes (Cedrene and Thujopsene) because:

An acute oral toxicity study, according to OECD test guideline 401, is available for the substance Cedarwood Virginia oil, (CW Virginia), which composition is very similar.

The concentrations of the main constituents cedrene α and β, for which a high toxic hazard is identified, but do not lead to acute oral toxicity classification, are similar in the source Cedarwood Virginia oil; and the concentration of a minor constituent, cuparene, which has been notified for acute hazard by a small number of notifiers in the C&L inventory, is also comparable in source and target UVCB substances.

This report follows the RAAF method and so presents:
1) The hypothesis: analogue read-across approach, based on the similarity of the structures and the absence of acute oral toxicity for these types of structures;
2) The scientific justifications (“Assessment Elements”) and their evaluation (“Assessment Options”); which demonstrate the confidence that can be put in this prediction.
3) The conclusions, usable for classification assessment or risk assessment, which are summarised hereafter.

Executive summary:

The acute toxicity of Cedarwood Texas oil distilled - Terpenes was evaluated by read across with the source study for Cedarwood Virginia oil. A single 5000 mg/kg bw dose of Cedarwood Virginia was administered by oral gavage to 10 male Wistar rats. The animals were observed for 14 days. Mortality was not noted. Slight lethargy was seen in animals dosed with the test material. The oral LD50 value of Cedarwood Virginia in rats was established as exceeding 5000 mg/kg body weight, under the conditions of this study. Based on the available information, the test substance does not need to be classified for acute oral toxicity, according to the classification criteria outlined in Annex I of 1272/2008/EC (CLP).

10 April 2018 READ-ACROSS STUDY / CW TX OIL TERPENES (1 & 2) / ACUTE DERMAL TOXICITY I&B9W8768R001F1.0

According to Annex VIII, 8.5 of the REACh Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Acute toxicity by the Dermal route is standard information required for the registration of substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 10 tonnes per year or more.

Additional information

The acute toxicity of Cedarwood Texas Terpenes was assessed by using read across from Cedarwood Virginia oil. The summary of the studie is presented below, and the read across justifications are attached to the acute toxicity target records.

Acute oral toxicity (OECDTG401, Cedarwood Virginia oil)

A single 5000 mg/kg bw dose of Cedarwood Virginia oil was administered by oral gavage to 10 male Wistar rats. The animals were observed for 14 days. Mortality was not noted. Slight lethargy was seen in animals dosed with the test material. The oral LD50 value of Cedarwood Virginia oil in rats was established as exceeding 5000 mg/kg body weight, under the conditions of this study.Based on the available information, the test substance does not need to be classified for acute oral toxicity, according to the classification criteria outlined in Annex I of 1272/2008/EC (CLP).

Acute dermal toxicity (OECDTG402, Cedarwood Virginia oil)

The acute dermal toxicity of Cedarwood Texas oil distilled - Terpenes was evaluated by read across with the source study for Cedarwood Virginia oil.

In this limit test, a high dose of 5000 mg.kg bw Cedarwood Virginia was applied dermally to the skin of 9 rabbits. The rabbits were observed for 14 days. No mortality was observed, and the LD50 was established to be higher than 5000 mg/kg bw.Based on the available information, the test substance does not need to be classified for acute dermal toxicity, according to the classification criteria outlined in Annex I of 1272/2008/EC (CLP)

Justification for classification or non-classification

The acute toxicity of Cedarwood Texas oil distilled - Terpenes was evaluated by read across with the source study for Cedarwood Virginia oil.
