Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Remarks:
based on CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
Conclusions:
The oral LD50 value of Cedarwood Texas oilin rats was established as exceeding 5000 mg/kg body weight, under the conditions of this study. The substance therefore does not need to be classified in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
Executive summary:

A single 5000 mg/kg bw dose of Cedarwood Texas oil was administered by oral gavage to 10 rats. The animals were observed for 14 days. No symptoms or mortality were noted. The oral LD50 value of

Cedarwood Texas oil in rats was established as exceeding 5000 mg/kg body weight, under the conditions of this study.
