Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Results of examinations

Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
kidney weight increases, lung weight decreases
Details on results:
Hematology parameters were not adversely affected by camphor treatment. Decreases in blood urea nitrogen and alanine aminotransferase appeared to be related to camphor treatment and were evident early (on Days 4 and 23). However, these indices were unchanged at Day 93 and, thus, were considered not to have any toxicological significance.Relative lung weights were reduced in female rats at doses of64 and 250 mg/kg and relative kidney weights were increased in males at 64 mg/kg. All other findings at necropsy were considered incidental and consistent with those frequently seen in Fischer 344 rats ofthis age.
