Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Additional information

For Lemongrass oil (Cymbopogon flexuosus), no WAF studies on aquatic toxicity are available for Daphnia and algae. Read-across is conducted from Litsea cubeba, Cymbopogon winterianus and Eucalyptus citriodora. The rationale for this read-across is motivated in the read-across document. Key studies have been selected based on the highest toxicity (lowest EL50's).

An overview of the results of studies with reliability 1 and 2 is presented in the table below:
