ANNEX
Summary of the draft screening assessment of the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group

Pursuant to section 68 or 74 of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA), the Minister of the Environment and the Minister of Health have conducted a screening assessment of 16 of 76 substances referred to collectively under the Chemicals Management Plan as the Terpenes and Terpenoids Group. These 16 substances were identified as priorities for assessment as they met categorization criteria under subsection 73(1) of CEPA or were considered a priority on the basis of other human health concerns. The 16 substances addressed in this draft screening assessment report will hereafter be referred to as the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group. It consists of 14 substances that have been divided into 3 subgroups based on chemical structure, properties, and/or toxicity, as well as 2 individual substances, namely sandalwood oil and guaiazulene. The Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Numbers (CAS RNs footnote 1), the subgroup, the Domestic Substances List (DSL) names and the common name used in this assessment of these substances are listed in the table below.

Terpenes are composed of repeating isoprene units and are classified according to the number of isoprene units they contain. Monoterpenes are the smallest and contain two isoprene units. Sesquiterpenes are larger and contain three isoprene units. Like monoterpenes, sesquiterpenes may be acyclic or cyclic, including many unique combinations. These substances are components of essential oils found in a wide variety of plants.

Most of the substances in the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group, except for alpha-guaiene, have been included in a survey issued pursuant to section 71 of CEPA, where none of the substances were reported to be manufactured above the reporting threshold of 100 kg. Santol pentenol, sandalore, and beta-caryophyllene were reported to be imported into Canada in quantities of up to 10 000 kg, while no imports of the other substances were reported. They are generally used as fragrances in self-care products (e.g. body lotion, massage products, hair care products, oral care products, drugs, non-prescription and natural health products), cleaning products, and air fresheners. They are also present in pest control products as formulants. In addition, some of them occur naturally in food and/or may be used as food flavouring agents.

The ecological risks of substances in the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group were characterized using the ecological risk classification of organic substances (ERC) approach, which is a risk-based approach that employs multiple metrics for both hazard and exposure, with weighted consideration of multiple lines of evidence for determining risk classification (ECCC 2016a). Hazard profiles are based principally on metrics regarding mode of toxic action, chemical reactivity, food web-derived internal toxicity thresholds, bioavailability, and chemical and biological activity. Metrics considered in the exposure profiles include potential emission rate, overall persistence, and long-range transport potential. A risk matrix is used to assign a low, moderate or high level of potential concern for substances on the basis of their hazard and exposure profiles. Based on the outcome of the ERC analysis, the 16 substances in the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group are considered unlikely to be causing ecological harm.

Considering all available lines of evidence presented in this draft screening assessment, there is a low risk to the environment from substances in the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group. It is proposed to conclude that the 16 substances in the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group do not meet the criteria under paragraph 64(a) or (b) of CEPA as they are not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that have or may have an immediate or long-term harmful effect on the environment or its biological diversity or that constitute or may constitute a danger to the environment on which life depends.

For the human health risk assessment, 14 of the substances in this group have been addressed under three subgroups, due to similarities in chemical structure, properties and/or toxicity, while the remaining two substances were addressed individually. An impact on human health from exposure to these substances from environmental media is not expected. Where applicable, exposures were characterized from use of self-care products, possible use as food flavouring agents, cleaning products, and air fresheners containing the monocyclic and bicyclic sesquiterpenes and are expected to be predominantly via the dermal and inhalation routes.

For subgroup 1, ginger oil, bisabolene, alpha-bisabolene, santol pentenol, sandalore, and copaiba balsam demonstrated a low hazard potential. Therefore, the risk to human health was also considered to be low.

For subgroup 2 (beta-caryophyllene, T & T clove oil, guaiene, alpha-guaiene and valencene), hazard information for beta-caryophyllene was used to inform the hazard assessment. Beta-caryophyllene is the main component in T & T clove oil. It was also identified as a read-across analogue for guaiene, alpha-guaiene, and valencene. For beta-caryophyllene, critical health effects were in the lymphoid system, liver, and mesenteric lymph nodes. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure to guaiene and valencene from food, to beta-caryophyllene from food, cleaning products, air fresheners, and cold sore cream, to T & T clove oil from body lotion, massage oil, and mouthwash, and to alpha-guaiene from its potential use as a fragrance ingredient with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered adequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure to T & T clove oil from its use as a body fragrance with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered potentially inadequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data.

For subgroup 3 (guaiol, bulnesol, elemol), read-across data from the analogue alpha-terpineol was used to inform the hazard assessment. Critical health effects were observed on the male reproductive system. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure to bulnesol and elemol from food with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered adequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data. In addition, calculated margins of exposure to elemol from its potential use as a fragrance ingredient are considered adequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data. Since there were no identified sources of exposure for the general population to guaiol, a qualitative approach to risk characterization was taken, and the risk to human health from guaiol was considered to be low.

For sandalwood oil, read-across data from the analogue, bisabolol was used to inform the hazard assessment. Critical health effects from the dermal route of exposure were a decrease in body weight gain, decrease in feed efficiency, decrease of absolute liver weight and increase in relative testes weight. Critical health effects from the oral route of exposure were sedation, ataxia, reduced feed intake, and reduction of body weight gain in females and a significant reduction in fetal number and increase in resorption rate. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure to sandalwood oil from food, massage oil (in individuals nine years of age and older), facial moisturizer, shampoo, acne medication (i.e. facial cleansing system), sunscreen, cleaning products, laundry detergent, and use in aromatherapy with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered adequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure to sandalwood oil from body lotion, massage oil (in infants and children up to eight years of age), and use of the essential oil as a body fragrance with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered potentially inadequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data.

For guaiazulene, naphthalene was used as a read-across analogue to inform the hazard assessment. Critical health effects from the dermal route of exposure were effects on the testes and non-neoplastic lesions in the cervical lymph nodes, liver, thyroid, kidneys, urinary bladder, and skin. From the inhalation route of exposure, critical health effects were atrophy/disorganization of the olfactory epithelium and hyperplasia of the respiratory and transitional epithelium. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure to guaiazulene from body lotion, facial moisturizer, conditioner, and aftershave product with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered adequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data. A comparison of estimated levels of exposure by the dermal or inhalation route to guaiazulene from a hair perm or straightening product with critical effect levels results in margins that are considered potentially inadequate to address uncertainties in the health effects and exposure data.

A summary of the potential health effects of concern, the products of concern, and the age groups impacted for T & T clove oil, sandalwood oil, and guaiazulene is listed in the statements that follow.

T & T clove oil may cause effects on the liver and lymphatic system when used in certain products and for certain age groups:

Sandalwood oil may cause developmental effects and effects on body weight, the liver and testes when used in certain products and for certain age groups:

Guaiazulene may cause effects on the testes, non-cancerous tumours and effects on the respiratory system when used in certain products and for certain age groups:

Considering all the information presented in this draft screening assessment, it is proposed to conclude that bisabolene, copaiba balsam, ginger oil, alpha-bisabolene, sandalore, santol pentenol, beta-caryophyllene, guaiene, alpha-guaiene, valencene, guaiol, elemol, and bulnesol do not meet the criteria under paragraph 64(c) of CEPA, as they are not entering the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health.

Considering all the information presented in this draft screening assessment, it is proposed to conclude that T & T clove oil, sandalwood oil and guaiazulene meet the criteria under paragraph 64(c) of CEPA, as they are entering or may enter the environment in a quantity or concentration or under conditions that constitute or may constitute a danger in Canada to human life or health.

Proposed overall conclusion

Therefore, it is proposed to conclude that T & T clove oil, sandalwood oil and guaiazulene meet one or more of the criteria set out in section 64 of CEPA and that the remaining 13 substances in the Monocyclic and Bicyclic Sesquiterpenes Group do not meet any of the criteria set out in section 64 of CEPA.

It is also proposed to conclude that T & T clove oil and guaiazulene meet the persistence and bioaccumulation criteria and that sandalwood oil does not meet the persistence or bioaccumulation criteria as set out in the Persistence and Bioaccumulation Regulations of CEPA.

The draft screening assessment and the risk management scope document for these substances are available on the Canada.ca (Chemical Substances) website.
