Cited dermal maximum · leave-on: 0.6%
Phototoxicity: Not flagged in this profile
Oxidation risk: medium

A cited maximum is a limit, not a suggested dilution. Missing restrictions do not establish safety.

No cited source reviewed in this pass identified a furocoumarin-driven phototoxicity limit for steam-distilled blue tansy oil.

57 constituents

An oil's character comes from its natural chemical composition. Explore each constituent to understand the connections.

About this composition

This profile is anchored to a directly readable peer-reviewed blue tansy GC-MS/GC-FID study and a public technical data sheet. Across those public sources, blue tansy remains sabinene-camphor-myrcene-led, with the oil's blue color tied to chamazulene formed during distillation. This pass adds the remaining named, quantified SE52-column compounds from the same directly read Stappen et al. (2021) GC-MS/GC-FID Table 1 (monoterpene hydrocarbons, oxygenated monoterpenes, sesquiterpene hydrocarbons and azulene-related constituents) to raise closure toward the archive target.

Good decisions start with knowing what is — and isn't — in the evidence.

No directly measured public volatility-rate or tenacity-hour data were verified in this pass.
The public max-dermal figure used here comes from a secondary safety summary rather than a directly readable primary Tisserand and Young page.
Closure was raised using the full set of named, percentage-quantified SE52-column rows from the same Stappen et al. 2021 Table 1; a small residual gap remains from trace ('tr.') rows without numeric percentages and compounds reported only on the separate CW20M polar column.
