Safety
Safety Profile
The FDA has classified Linalool Oxide as Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for use as a flavoring agent or adjuvant. It is critical to differentiate Linalool Oxide from auto-oxidized Linalool; the latter, derived from its parent compound, is identified by the SCCS as an important contact allergen. Linalool Oxide is also listed on the EPA TSCA Commercial Activity Status.
