Any other information on results incl. tables

The most important constituent with regard to eye irritation/eye damage was determined to be 1,(+)-Citronellal (CAS 2385-77-5), which is present in a typical concentration of 76% and is classified for serious eye irritation (Eye Irrit. 2 / H319).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Serious eye irritation
Remarks:
based on CLP criteria
Conclusions:
The major constituent Citronellal is classified for serious eye irritation and is present well above the classification threshold of 10% for mixtures, as given in the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC). Based on this information, Eucalyptus Citriodora is also considered to be classified for serious eye irritation (Eye Irrit. 2 / H319).
