Additional information

Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
1) Read-across from CAS 2436-90-0, EC 219-433-3, Dihydromyrcene, Acute Toxicity Experimental Results for Moreno, 1980. Acute oral toxicity tests were performed in rats and mice. An acute dermal toxicity test was completed in rabbits and/or guinea pigs. Skin irritations were recorded during dermal LD50 studies in rabbit and guinea pig. Acute dermal LD50>5 gm/kg.
2) Read-across from CAS 53219-21-9, EC 258-432-2, Dihydromyrcenol (Isomer), in-vivo experimental study conducted using Annex V, EEC Directive 79/831 in 1986. Under the conditions of this study, the test article, Dihydromyrcenol (Isomer) , was classified as irritating to the New Zealand White rabbit. Acute dermal LD50>5 gm/kg.

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
Read across to CAS 18479-58-8, EC 18479-58-8, Dihydromyrcenol, key in-vivo experimental study conducted using the Draize method in 1980. Under the conditions of this study, the test article, Dihydromyrcenol, was classified as moderately irritating to the eye of the albino rabbit.

Effects on skin irritation/corrosion: irritating

Effects on eye irritation: moderately irritating
