Rutgers Univ. chemists found that lemon- and pine-scented cleaners react with
ozone to create microscopic particles that can be inhaled deeply into the lungs. The
resulting "indoor smog" can aggravate health conditions. Science News Online,
Dec. 9, 2000 , http://www.sciencenews.org/20001209/fob7.asp
============================================
Lemon-scented products spawn pollutants
http://www.sciencenews.org/20001209/fob7.asp
Limonene is present in many "orange" cleaners, air fresheners, and
scented products. Because limonene is a major component of orange oil and other
citrus oils, it is marketed as a natural, safer cleaner. Limonene is known to
be a dermal irritant and sensitizer. Oxidation is known to cause potent respiratory
sensitizers. Recent studies indicate there are other concerns. It has been found
that limonene in the presence of ozone forms submicron particles. While it is not
known if these particles are as harmful as those found in outdoor air from
terpene/ozone reactions, they are cause for concern and further study is needed.
The December Environmental Health Perspectives has an article on
limonene/ozone reactions Environmental Health Perspectives Volume 108, Number
12, December 2000

P.S. Fragrance chemicals in Air Fresheners, Laundry Products, Household Products
are not ''regulated'' by Cosmetics Directive.
d-Limonene belongs to the list B: Fragrance chemicals ''which are less frequently reported
and less documented as consumer allergens''. Might be these from the list B will not be
labelled - this is discussed now in the EU.
