Updated alpha-pinene data summary and new real-world analysis: New NTP data and future work
9.3.26
RIFM has updated its data summary on alpha-pinene. The revised summary incorporates the new National Toxicology Program carcinogenicity data and provides additional detail on RIFM’s planned future work related to alpha-pinene.
Additionally, RIFM has developed an analysis (alpha-Pinene Safe Use in Fragrances: Real-World Exposure vs. Toxicological Safety Thresholds) showing that real-world exposure from fragranced products remains far below toxicological safety thresholds.
You can review the analysis and updated data summary in the Science Documents section of the Members-only area of RIFM.org. Sort by Data Summary to easily find the new version. (Must be logged in to access.)
