Infant rats express conditioned responses to an odor experienced prenatally as a chemosensory cue associated with moderate alcohol intoxication. This study examined postnatal intake of a chemosensory cue (cineole) that had been paired with alcohol's unconditioned effects. It also tested the interaction between prenatal association and postnatal conditioning with cineole and alcohol. Pregnant female rats intubated with cineole were given ethanol (EtOH).25 or 4.0 hr later. Other groups received only water or water paired with ethanol. During postnatal day 15 (PD15), infant consumption of cineole solution was assessed. After the cineole drinking test, pups were intubated with EtOH or water to assess infant conditioning. On PD16, all pups were tested for mouthing to milk alone or to a milk-cineole solution. Statistical analysis confirmed fetal associative conditioning attributable to the unconditioned effects of prenatal alcohol. Fetuses given explicit pairings of cineole and alcohol ingested less cineole on PD15 than control fetuses given a 4-hr interval between cineole and alcohol. On PD16, consumption of cineole was significantly increased by prenatal exposure to cineole. Teratogenic effects of this dose of prenatal alcohol did not affect postnatal associative or nonassociative behavior. Prenatal associative learning can be established through temporal contiguity between fetal chemosensory stimulation and alcohol's unconditioned properties. This associative memory survives to infancy and modulates intake patterns and behavioral reactivity to substances that were prenatally paired with alcohol intoxication.

Cineole was administered by gavage to three groups, each of ten male and ten female Wistar Han (TM): RCCHan(TM): WIST strain rats, for up to eleven weeks (including a two week pre-pairing phase, pairing, gestation and early lactation for females) at dose levels of 30, 300 and 600 mg/kg bw/day. A control group of ten males and ten females was dosed with vehicle alone (Arachis oil BP). Clinical signs, bodyweight change, dietary intake and water consumption were monitored during the study. Pairing of animals within each dose group was undertaken on a one male: one female basis within each treatment group on Day 5 of the study, with females subsequently being allowed to litter and rear their offspring to Day 5 of lactation. An additional pairing for high dose females that failed to achieve pregnancy was performed to fully assess mating performance and fertility. During the lactation phase, daily clinical observations were performed on all surviving offspring, together with litter size and offspring weights and assessment of surface righting reflex. Adult males were terminated on Day 52 of the study following the completion of the second pairing at 600 mg/kg bw/day. Females and offspring were terminated on day 5 post partum. Any female which did not produce a pregnancy (unless allocated to a further mating phase) was terminated on or after Day 25 post coitum. All animals were subjected to a gross necropsy examination and histopathological evaluation of reproductive tissues was performed. Additional male organ weight and detailed histopathological examination of the testes were performed to more fully assess male fertility. Adult response: Mortality: There were no unscheduled deaths in the study. Clinical observations: Transient post-dosing salivation was observed from Day 7 at 600 mg/kg bw/day and Day 13 at 300 mg/kg bw/day. This sign was observed regularly throughout the treatment period with all animals being affected at both dosages, although the incidence of

TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 220(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 2.74(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1,8-cineole is expected to have moderate mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of 1,8-cineole from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.1X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 1.9 mm Hg(4), and water solubility, 3.5X10+3 mg/L(5). 1,8-Cineole is expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(5). Biodegradation data in soil were not available(SRC, 2015).

AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), an estimated Koc value of 220(SRC), determined from a log Kow of 2.74(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), indicates that 1,8-cineole is not expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is expected(4) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.1X10-4 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 1.9 mm Hg(5), and water solubility, 3.5X10+3 mg/L(6). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(4), volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 13 hours and 8 days, respectively(SRC). According to a classification scheme(7), an estimated BCF of 30(SRC), from its log Kow(2) and a regression-derived equation(3), suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is low(SRC). Biodegradation data in water were not available(SRC, 2015).

ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 1,8-cineole, which has a vapor pressure of 1.9 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase cineole is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC); the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 1.4 days, calculated from its rate constant of 1.11X10-11 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(3). 1,8-Cineole does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC).

1,8-Cineole was identified as a volatile odor component released from cooking full-fat and reduced fat frankfurters. Mean relative peaks (1 ng bromobenznene = 100) were 1290, 1830 and 1870 for 30%, 12% and 5% fat, respectively(1). The compound was present as 0.18% of volatiles identified from edible Korean chamchwi (Aster scaber)(2). Concentrations in mature and ripe guava (Psidium guajava Linn) fruit volatiles were 30,954 and 7,238 ug/kg, respectively(3).

IDENTIFICATION AND USE: Cineole is an essential oil that is used as a fragrance or flavoring agent in: foods, candies, pharmaceutical aid (flavor), cough drops, and personal care products. It has a history of being used as an expectorant and an antiseptic. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Cineole is the main constituent of eucalyptus oil, and it is mainly used as a mucolytic agent in inflammatory airway diseases. ANIMAL STUDIES: A study was performed to assess the ocular irritancy potential of eucalyptol to the isolated bovine cornea. The corneas treated with eucalyptol were clear post treatment and had cloudy areas post incubation. Eucalyptol was considered not to be an ocular corrosive or severe irritant. Cineole was administered by gavage to three groups, each of five male and five female rats, for twenty-eight consecutive days, at dose levels of 30, 300 and 600 mg/kg bw/day. For both sexes at 300 and 600 mg/kg bw/day, examination of the liver revealed a dosage dependent incidence of centrilobular hypertrophy of the hepatocytes; no other indicators of liver damage were apparent. Following the two week recovery period, hypertrophy of hepatocytes was no longer present at 600 mg/kg bw/day for either sex. 1,8-Cineole induced accumulation of protein droplets in proximal tubular epithelial cells in male rats. The renal changes were specific to the male rat and of no toxicological relevance to man. Eucalyptol was tested as a constituent of toothpaste in an oral long-term study with mice. Groups of 52 male mice were given 0, 8 and 32 mg/kg bw/day eucalyptol in toothpaste base by gavage for 80 weeks followed by an observation period between 16 and 24 weeks. No treatment-related effects on body weight, food consumption, survival, weight of adrenals, kidneys, liver, lungs or spleen, or on the microscopic appearance of brain, lungs, liver and kidneys or on tumor incidence was observed.

1.8-Cineole is considered a major monoterpene emitted by vegetation into the atmosphere; monoterpene emission rate estimates for 49 US tree genera range from 1 to 50 mg C-sq m/hr(1). The compound has been identified as an emission from agricultural and natural plant species present in California's Central Valley(2). 1,8-Cineole emission concentrations were 225, 280, 145, and 150 nmol/sq m-min from Eucalyptus camaldulensis, E globulus, E grandis and E viminalis, respectively, in southern Australia(3). 1,8-Cineole with limonene was emitted at rates of 10%, 1% and 1% of the total biogeneic volatile compounds identified from the leaves of Eucalyptus dunnii, E. saligna and E. citriodora, respectively, originating from Guaiba, Brazil collected during May and Jun 2000(4). Evaluation of ambient air around Eucalyptus globulus trees growing in Algiers City area, Algeria revealed 1,8-cineole present at 15.2% of total biogenic volatile emissions. It was not detected in emissions from Pinus halepensis or Cedrus atlantica trees(5). Emission rates of 1,8-cineole from forests in five geographical regions in Switzerland were monitored. Biogenic volatile organic compounds comprise 23% of total annual emissions in Switzerland. The Norway spruce (Picea abies) is the dominant tree at 49.1%; 1,8-cineole is a component of Norway spruce emissions(6). 1,8-Cineole was present at 8.54% of total emissions measured in 3 hours from a Mediterranean oak species Quercus ilex(7).

1,8-Cineole, with a fresh camphoraceous smell, has been identified as a volatile emission from Boletus erthropus, Paxillus involutus, Amanita rubescens, and Gomphidius glutinosus mushrooms at relative amounts of 8%, 6%, 1%, and 1% and 0.2%, respectively(1). 1,8-Cineole was identified at concentrations of in the volatiles of the essential oils of fresh lovage (Levisticum officinale) and ginger powder (Zingiber officianle). It was not identified in fresh celery (Apium graveolens), honeysuckle (Lonicera periclymenum) or apples (Malus domestica cv Golden Delicious)(2).

1,8-Cineole was present in groundwater samples at 8, 5, and 1 ug/L at distances of 5, 19, and 39 meters, respectively, down gradient of a landfill in Vejen, Denmark(1). 1,8-Cineole was identified not quantified in the leachate plum from a landfill in Norman, OK sampled in November 1995 and April 1996(2). 1,8-Cineole was on average only 1% of the total post treatment odor faction from a municipal waste treatment plant in China(3).

The Koc of 1,8-cineole is estimated as 220(SRC), using a log Kow of 2.74(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that 1,8-cineole is expected to have moderate mobility in soil. In soil infiltration studies using secondary effluent from Fort Polk, LA collected Nov 4-5 1980, 1,8-cineole, present at 0.091 ug/L, was not detected in column fluid effluents on the second inundation cycle(4).

1,8-cineole is produced only from natural sources as these are sufficiently inexpensive to make synthesis uneconomic. Originally, it was produced from Cajeput oil, but the discovery of Eucalyptus globulus, the oil of which contains up to 95% 1,8-cineole, in 1788 led to the first commercial production from that source in 1854 in Australia, and then to its taking over as the dominant source. ... Much of the oil is used per se and only about one-quarter of it is distilled to produce pure cineole.

The chief constituent of oil of eucalyptus; also found in essential oils of laurel, rosemary, and many other aromatic plants.
