Pine Oil 85%

Pine oil 85% is an essential oil obtained by the steam distillation of stumps,[2] needles, twigs and cones[3] from a variety of species of pine, particularly Pinus sylvestris. As of 1995, synthetic Pine oil 85% was the "biggest single turpentine derivative."[4] Synthetic Pine oil 85%s accounted for 90% of sales as of 2000.
In alternative medicine, it is said to be used in aromatherapy, as a scent in bath oils or more commonly as a cleaning product, and as a lubricant in small and expensive clockwork instruments. It may also be used varyingly as a disinfectant, sanitizer, microbicide (or microbistat), virucide or insecticide.[6] It is also used as an effective herbicide where its action is to modify the waxy cuticle of plants, resulting in desiccation.[7]
Pine oil 85% is distinguished from other products from pine, such as turpentine, the low-boiling fraction from the distillation of pine sap, and rosin, the thick tar remaining after turpentine is distilled.
Chemically, Pine oil 85% consists mainly of α-terpineol and other cyclic terpene alcohols.[1] It may also contain terpene hydrocarbons, ethers, and esters. The exact composition depends on various factors, such as the variety of pine from which it is produced and the parts of the tree used.

Properties as a disinfectant
Pine oil 85% is a disinfectant that is mildly antiseptic.[8] It is effective against Brevibacterium ammoniagenes, the fungi Candida albicans, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Gram-negative enteric bacteria, household germs, Gram-negative household germs such as those causing salmonellosis, herpes simplex types 1 and 2, influenza type A, influenza virus type A/Brazil, influenza virus type A2/Japan, intestinal bacteria, Klebsiella pneumoniae, odor-causing bacteria, mold, mildew, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella choleraesuis, Salmonella typhi, Salmonella typhosa, Serratia marcescens, Shigella sonnei, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Trichophyton mentagrophytes.[6]
It will kill the causative agents of typhoid, gastroenteritis (some agents), rabies, cholera, several forms of meningitis, whooping cough, gonorrhea and several types of dysentery.[9] It is not effective against spore related illnesses, such as tetanus or anthrax, or against non-enveloped viruses such as poliovirus, rhinovirus, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C.[9]

Froth flotation
Industrially, Pine oil 85% is used as a frother in mineral extraction from ores.[1] For example, in copper extraction Pine oil 85% is used to condition copper sulfide ores for froth flotation. Therefore, it is important in the industry for the froth flotation process. It has largely been replaced by synthetic alcohols and polyglycol ethers.

Safety
Pine oil 85% has a relatively low human toxicity level, a low corrosion level and limited persistence; however, it irritates the skin and mucous membranes and has been known to cause breathing problems.[8][10] Large doses may cause central nervous system depression.

What You Need to Know About Pine oil 85%
Essential oils are increasingly gaining mainstream popularity as possible alternatives to medications. These plant-derived ingredients are still being studied for their medicinal effects, and Pine oil 85% is no exception.
Made from pine trees, Pine oil 85% offers numerous purported health benefits and is notable for its strong woody scent.
While pine tree oil may offer some benefits, there’s also possible side effects to consider, just like with any other type of essential oil. Learn the pros and cons so that you can best decide whether pine tree essential oil is worth trying.

What is Pine oil 85%?
Pine oil 85% is a derivative of pine tree needles, which are known for their strong aroma. In fact, one sniff of Pine oil 85% might remind you of a Christmas tree.
As with other essential oils, pine has been used in traditional medicine for centuries.
Pine scents and oil extracts are also abundant in everyday items. These include floor and furniture cleaners, as well as disinfectants and air fresheners.
However, oil extracts are not the same as essential oils because they don’t carry the same medicinal-strength properties.
Essential oils contain multiple chemical compounds that make them so powerful. As such, essential oils shouldn’t be ingested.

Pine oil 85% uses and benefits
Due to its aroma, Pine oil 85% is notable for its uplifting yet clearing scent. Because of this, Pine oil 85% can work as a room scent in a diffuser as well as in cleaning solutions.
The internet is full of anecdotes and articles that claim Pine oil 85% can offer more health benefits than just a nice scent. However, most of these claims lack clinical evidence.

Air fresheners and aromatherapy
Pine oil 85% extracts are often used in air fresheners for homes, offices, and vehicles. Essential oils, on the other hand, may be used in aromatherapy to create an uplifting and invigorating atmosphere — not just a nice scent
Inhaling oils like pine may also have clearing effects in the case of illnesses like the common cold.

Skin antimicrobial
Some proponents claim that Pine oil 85% may be used topically (applied to the skin) as an antimicrobial, similar to tea tree oil. In theory, the oil could be used for minor skin infections and burns.
However, research indicates that Pine oil 85% doesn’t have much antimicrobial activity. Talk to a doctor before using Pine oil 85% for this purpose.

Reduced inflammation
Pine oil 85% is also touted as having anti-inflammatory effects.
In theory, such effects could do two things:
Ease symptoms of inflammatory skin conditions, such as acne, eczema, and rosacea.
Alleviate pain from related health conditions, such as arthritis and muscle pain.
However, more research is needed on this front.
Other essential oils have in fact been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. These include:
turmeric; ginger; frankincense; peppermint
Odor: fresh, sweet-resinous, woody, turpentine, coniferous, balsamic

Pine oil 85%'s production and use as a flavoring and in perfumery may result in its release to the environment through various waste streams. Pine oil 85% is a component of essential oils. If released to air, an estimated vapor pressure of 3.3X10-2 mm Hg at 25 °C indicates Pine oil 85% will exist solely as a vapor in the atmosphere. Vapor-phase Pine oil 85% will be degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals; the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 2 hrs. Pine oil 85% does contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight. If released to soil, Pine oil 85% is expected to have slight mobility based upon an estimated Koc of 3,700. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 2.4X10-3 atm-cu m/mole. However, adsorption to soil is expected to attenuate volatilization. Biodegradation data were not available. If released into water, Pine oil 85% is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment based upon the estimated Koc. Volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be an important fate process based upon this compound's estimated Henry's Law constant. Estimated volatilization half-lives for a model river and model lake are 7.4 hrs and 6.5 days, respectively. However, volatilization from water surfaces is expected to be attenuated by adsorption to suspended solids and sediment in the water column. The estimated volatilization half-life from a model pond is 30 days if adsorption is considered. An estimated BCF of 260 suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high. Hydrolysis is expected based on estimated second order hydrolysis half-lives of 231 and 23 days at pH values of 7 and 8, respectively. Occupational exposure to Pine oil 85% may occur through inhalation and dermal contact with this compound at workplaces where Pine oil 85% is produced or used. Monitoring data indicate that the general population may be exposed to Pine oil 85% via inhalation, ingestion of food, and dermal contact with this compound and other consumer products containing Pine oil 85%.

Side effects of Pine oil 85%
When used in aromatherapy, essential oils can have effects on those who inhale them.
However, some essential oils are toxic to pets or dangerous for pregnant women and children. It’s also possible to have skin reactions to these oils, including Pine oil 85%.
Possible side effects include:
redness; hives; itchiness; dry skin; swelling; peeling skin
If you are allergic to pine trees, don’t use Pine oil 85%. While not considered common, some people are allergic to pine pollen. You might be allergic to Pine oil 85% if you develop allergy-like symptoms, such as sneezing or skin rashes.

How to use Pine oil 85%
Pine oil 85% can be used in a number of different ways, including inhalation and topical variations. Talk to a doctor about the following methods.
Use a diffuser
Diffusing is one of the most popular ways to use essential oils.
You can make a quick, safe room scent by putting a few drops of Pine oil 85% into a diffuser filled with water. Once the device is turned on, the diffuser then releases cool steam.
You can purchase a diffuser online.

Inhale it
If you don’t have a diffuser on hand, you may still reap the aromatic benefits of Pine oil 85% through inhalation.
Simply pour a couple of drops on a tissue, and hold the tissue in front of your face while you inhale deeply through your nose.
You can also try holding the bottle of essential oil underneath your nose.

Apply it topically
Pine oil 85% may be used topically, either through direct application or via a massage.
It’s important to dilute Pine oil 85% with a carrier oil before applying directly to your skin. Add a tablespoon of almond, jojoba, or coconut oil to a few drops of Pine oil 85%.
You can also use this combination for a patch test 24 hours beforehand to make sure you’re not sensitive to pine.
Add some to your bath
Essential oils can also be used in the bath. Add several drops of the essential oil to warm running water. Watch for slippery surfaces as you get in and out of the tub.

Precautions
Essential oils like pine are appealing because of their “natural” allure. However, these plant derivatives are powerful enough to mimic the effects of conventional medicine.
This is why it’s always a good idea to talk to a doctor before using them, especially if you’re pregnant or have any preexisting health condition.
The best way to reduce the risk of side effects is to take safety precautions before using Pine oil 85%:
Don’t use essential oils near your eyes.
Make sure to combine your essential oils with a carrier oil.
Never take essential oils by mouth.
Where to get Pine oil 85%
Due to the popularity of essential oils, you can find Pine oil 85% in natural health stores, drugstores, and massage clinics. You can also choose from a variety of Pine oil 85% products online.
The takeaway
While you might know pine for its scent, a lot of medicinal claims are being made about its essential oil.
Diffusing Pine oil 85% probably won’t cause any harm, but you should talk to your doctor before using it for any medical purpose.
Stop using the oil right away if you experience symptoms of an allergic reaction.

Pine oil 85%, essential oil consisting of a colourless to light amber liquid of characteristic odour obtained from pine trees, or a synthetic oil similar in aroma and other properties. Pine oil 85% is used as a solvent for gums, resins, and other substances. It has germicidal properties and is employed medically as a principal constituent of general disinfectants. It is also used in odorants, insecticides, detergents, wetting and emulsifying agents, wax preparations, and antifoaming agents and in textile scouring and the flotation process for refining lead and zinc ores.
Pitch-soaked wood of the pine tree, principally Pinus palustris but also certain other species of the family Pinaceae, is subjected to steam distillation, solvent extraction followed by steam distillation, or destructive distillation to obtain the Pine oil 85%, which boils at 200°–220° C (390°–430° F).
A variety of similar Pine oil 85% is obtained by distillation of cones and needles of various species of pines or by extraction from the stumps using solvents and steam. Synthetic Pine oil 85% is produced by conversion of terpene hydrocarbons into terpene alcohols. Chemically, Pine oil 85%s consist principally of cyclic terpene alcohols and are used in the manufacture of chemicals. Pine oil 85% is insoluble in water but dissolves in alcohol and other organic solvents.
Pine oil has a fresh, woodsy aroma that is refreshing and empowering. When diffused it can help to ground and uplift mood and encourage feelings of positive energy.

Pine oil 85%s are directly irritating to mucous membranes, producing erythema of the oropharynx, mouth, and skin.
Pine oil 85%s and Turpentine
Pine oil 85%s, derived by steam distillation of wood from pines, consist of a mixture of terpene alcohols. Pine oil 85%–based compounds may contain small amounts of phenol derivatives. The concentration of Pine oil 85% in disinfectant cleaners varies from 0.3% to 60%.18 Many “Pine oil 85%” cleaners marketed in the United States are pine scented but contain little or no actual Pine oil 85%, so it is important to check the label on pine-scented cleaners. Pine Sol, one of the most widely used Pine oil 85% cleaners, contains 8% to 12% Pine oil 85%, 3% to 7% alkyl alcohol ethoxylates, 1% to 5% isopropanol, and 1% to 5% sodium petroleum sulfonate in its “Original” formulation19; other cleaners branded as Pine Sol contain no Pine oil 85%. Turpentine is a hydrocarbon mixture of terpenes derived from Pine oil 85% rather than petroleum and is often applied as a paint thinner.

The oral LD50 of Pine oil 85% ranges from 1 to 2.7 mL/kg BW. A substantially lower dose results in severe toxicosis.2 Pine oil 85% is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is metabolized by the liver to be excreted in urine as glucuronide conjugates. High concentrations of ingested Pine oil 85% are demonstrable in lung tissue, lending a characteristic pine or turpentine odor to the breath.18 As is true for phenolic compounds, cats are more susceptible than other species to Pine oil 85% toxicoses.20

Pine oil 85%s are directly irritating to mucous membranes, producing erythema of the oropharynx, mouth, and skin. Ocular exposure causes marked blepharospasm, epiphora, photosensitivity, and erythema of the conjunctiva and sclera.2 Ingestion results in nausea, hypersalivation, bloody vomiting, and abdominal pain. Systemic effects include weakness and CNS depression, ataxia, hypotension, and respiratory depression. Pulmonary toxicity is due to aspiration during ingestion or from emesis or may be due to chemical pneumonitis from absorption of the Pine oil 85% through the gastrointestinal tract with subsequent deposition in the lung.18 Myoglobinuria and acute renal failure may develop following massive ingestions. A cat that ingested 100 mL of undiluted Pine Sol had severe depression, ataxia, unresponsive pupils, and shock, and died within 12 hours. Pulmonary edema, acute centrilobular hepatic necrosis, and total renal cortical necrosis were present at necropsy examination.

Prompt dilution with milk, egg white, or water should occur following ingestion of Pine oil 85% disinfectants. Because of rapid onset of depression and the danger of aspiration pneumonia, emesis is often contraindicated, and even gastric lavage with placement of a cuffed endotracheal tube poses risk. Dilution should be followed by the administration of activated charcoal and a saline or osmotic cathartic. Symptomatic and supportive care, consisting of maintenance of renal perfusion and acid-base and electrolyte balance, is crucial. Animals that have their dermis exposed should be bathed with soap and then rinsed with copious amounts of water as soon as feasible after the exposure.

One of the other advantages of Pine oil 85% in an all purpose cleaner is that it can also function as a disinfecting ingredient, although it is not very broad spectrum (effective primarily against Gram-negative bacteria) and requires fairly high concentrations as compared to other disinfectants. Pine oil 85% acts as a dual purpose ingredient, participating in both cleaning and disinfecting. This is in contrast to quaternary ammonium surfactants, “quats” that do not participate in cleaning and can actually hamper it by interacting with anionic surfactants.

Pine oil 85% consists of complex mixtures of monoterpene hydrocarbons (alpha, beta-pinene) and oxygenated monoterpenes (terpineol, borneol, bornyl acetate) [28]. Compared to other disinfectants, antimicrobial activity is relatively low. Concentrated formulations may contain over 50% Pine oil 85% with soap/anionic surfactant and alcohol to provide a blooming effect when diluted in water. End use concentrations of more than 0.5% are often required for disinfection. Quaternary ammonium compounds or phenolics may be combined with reduced levels of Pine oil 85% to improve disinfectant activity while retaining the characteristic pine scent.

Pine oil 85% Disinfectants
Toxicokinetics
Pine oil 85% is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and metabolized, with glucuronide conjugation, in the liver. Inhalation, or systemic distribution, of absorbed Pine oil 85% to the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis. Conjugates are excreted in the urine, although if a large amount has been ingested, there may be a pine or turpentine odor to the breath. The LD50 of Pine oil 85% is in the range 1–2.5 mL/kg BW. Cats, because of their limited capacity for glucuronidation, are particularly susceptible to toxicosis.

Mode(s) of Action
Pine oil 85% is directly irritating to mucous membranes, and is also a central nervous system (CNS) and respiratory depressant.
Public Health Considerations
Pine oil 85% poses the same risk to human beings, especially preschool children, as it does to domestic pets.
Prevention
Pine oil 85% and Pine oil 85%-based compounds should be stored out of reach of small children or pets, and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s directions.

HISTORY OF Pine oil 85% USAGE
The Pine tree is easily recognized as the “Christmas Tree,” but it is also commonly cultivated for its wood, which is rich in resin and is thus ideal for use as fuel, as well as for making a pitch, tar, and turpentine, substances that are traditionally used in construction and painting.
In folk tales, the height of the Pine tree has led to its symbolic reputation as a tree that loves the sunlight and is always growing taller in order to catch the beams. This is a belief that is shared throughout many cultures, which also refer to it as “The Master of Light” and “The Torch Tree.” Accordingly, in the region of Corsica, it is burned as a spiritual offering so that it can emit a source of light. In some Native American tribes, the tree is called “The Watchman of the Sky.”

In history, the Pine tree’s needles were used as filling for mattresses, as they were believed to have the ability to protect against fleas and lice. In ancient Egypt, pine kernels, better known as Pine Nuts, were used in culinary applications. The needles were also chewed to protect against scurvy. In ancient Greece, Pine was believed to have been used by physicians like Hippocrates to address respiratory ailments. For other applications, the tree’s bark was also used for its believed ability to reduce symptoms of colds, to calm inflammation and headaches, to soothe sores and infections, and to ease respiratory discomforts.
Today, Pine oil 85% continues to be used for similar therapeutic benefits. It has also become a popular aroma in cosmetics, toiletries, soaps, and detergents. This article highlights the various other benefits, properties, and safe uses of Pine oil 85%.

Pine oil 85% USES
By diffusing Pine oil 85%, whether on its own or in a blend, indoor environments benefit from the elimination of stale odors and harmful airborne bacteria, such as those that cause colds and the flu. To deodorize and freshen a room with the crisp, fresh, warm, and comforting aroma of Pine oil 85%, add 2-3 drops to a diffuser of choice and allow the diffuser to run for no more than 1 hour. This helps to reduce or clear nasal/sinus congestion. Alternatively, it may be blended with other essential oils that have woody, resinous, herbaceous, and citrusy aromas. In particular, Pine oil 85% blends well with the oils of Bergamot, Cedarwood, Citronella, Clary Sage, Coriander, Cypress, Eucalyptus, Frankincense, Grapefruit, Lavender, Lemon, Marjoram, Myrrh, Niaouli, Neroli, Peppermint, Ravensara, Rosemary, Sage, Sandalwood, Spikenard, Tea Tree, and Thyme.

To create a Pine oil 85% room spray, simply dilute Pine oil 85% in a glass spray bottle filled with water. This can be sprayed around the house, in the car, or in any other indoor environment in which a considerable amount of time is spent. These simple diffuser methods are reputed to help purify indoor environments, promote mental alertness, clarity, and positivity, and to enhance energy as well as productivity. This makes Pine oil 85% ideal for diffusion during tasks that require increased focus and awareness, such as work or school projects, religious or spiritual practices, and driving. Diffusing Pine oil 85% also helps soothe coughing, whether it is linked to a cold or to excessive smoking. It is also believed to ease symptoms of hangovers.

Massage blends enriched with Pine oil 85% are also reputed to have the same effects on the mind, helping to promote clarity, ease mental stresses, strengthen attentiveness, and improve memory. For a simple massage blend, dilute 4 drops of Pine oil 85% in 30 ml (1 oz.) of a body lotion or a carrier oil, then massage it into areas affected with tightness or soreness caused by physical exertion, such as exercise or outdoor activities. This is gentle enough for use on sensitive skin and is believed to soothe aching muscles as well as minor skin ailments, such as itching, pimples, eczema, psoriasis, sores, scabies. In addition, it is also reputed to soothe gout, arthritis, injuries, exhaustion, inflammation, and congestion. To use this recipe as a natural vapor rub blend that promotes easier breathing and soothes a sore throat, massage it into the neck, chest, and upper back to help reduce congestion and comfort the respiratory tract.

For a hydrating, cleansing, clarifying, and soothing facial serum, dilute 1-3 drops of Pine oil 85% in 1 teaspoon of a lightweight carrier oil, such as Almond or Jojoba. This blend is reputed to have purifying, smoothing, and firming qualities. Its antioxidant properties are reputed to result in skin that feels smoother, suppler, balanced, and younger, while its analgesic properties are reputed to reduce pain and swelling.
For a balancing and detoxifying bath blend that is also reputed to enhance energy as well as metabolic function and speed, dilute 5-10 drops of Pine oil 85% in 30 ml (1 oz.) of a carrier oil and add it to a bathtub filled with warm water. This helps to eliminate infection-causing bacteria and viruses that may be on the skin.
To enhance the health of the hair and the scalp by eliminating fungus-causing bacteria and by soothing itchiness, simply dilute 10-12 drops of Pine oil 85% in ½ cup of a regular shampoo that has minimal or no scent. This simple shampoo blend is believed to help get rid of lice.

PINE SCOTCH OIL SIDE EFFECTS
As with all other New Directions Aromatics products, Pine oil 85% is for external use only. It is imperative to consult a medical practitioner before using this oil for therapeutic purposes. Pregnant and nursing women are especially advised not to use Pine oil 85% without the medical advice of a physician, as it may have an effect on certain hormone secretions and it is unclear whether these effects are transferable to babies at these stages of development. The oil should always be stored in an area that is inaccessible to children, especially those under the age of 7.
Those with the following health conditions are recommended to be advised by a physician: cancer, heart-related ailments, skin disorders, hypertension, or hormone-related ailments. Individuals that are taking prescription drugs, undergoing major surgery, or who are at a greater risk of experiencing strokes, heart attacks, or atherosclerosis are also advised to seek medical consultation prior to use.
Prior to using Pine oil 85%, a skin test is recommended. This can be done by diluting 1 drop of the Essential Oil in 4 drops of a Carrier Oil and applying a dime-size amount of this blend to a small area of skin that is not sensitive. Pine oil 85% must never be used near the eyes, inner nose, and ears, or on any other particularly sensitive areas of skin. Potential side effects of Pine oil 85% include mild irritation of the respiratory tract.

Pine oil 85% is an essential oil obtained by the steam distillation of stumps,[2] needles, twigs and cones[3] from a variety of species of pine, particularly Pinus sylvestris. As of 1995, synthetic Pine oil 85% was the "biggest single turpentine derivative."[4] Synthetic Pine oil 85%s accounted for 90% of sales as of 2000.
In alternative medicine, it is said to be used in aromatherapy, as a scent in bath oils or more commonly as a cleaning product, and as a lubricant in small and expensive clockwork instruments. It may also be used varyingly as a disinfectant, sanitizer, microbicide (or microbistat), virucide or insecticide.[6] It is also used as an effective herbicide where its action is to modify the waxy cuticle of plants, resulting in desiccation.[7]
Pine oil 85% is distinguished from other products from pine, such as turpentine, the low-boiling fraction from the distillation of pine sap, and rosin, the thick tar remaining after turpentine is distilled.
Chemically, Pine oil 85% consists mainly of α-terpineol[6] and other cyclic terpene alcohols.[1] It may also contain terpene hydrocarbons, ethers, and esters. The exact composition depends on various factors, such as the variety of pine from which it is produced and the parts of the tree used.

Pine oil 85% is a disinfectant that is mildly antiseptic.[8] It is effective against Brevibacterium ammoniagenes, the fungi Candida albicans, Enterobacter aerogenes, Escherichia coli, Gram-negative enteric bacteria, household germs, Gram-negative household germs such as those causing salmonellosis, herpes simplex types 1 and 2, influenza type A, influenza virus type A/Brazil, influenza virus type A2/Japan, intestinal bacteria, Klebsiella pneumoniae, odor-causing bacteria, mold, mildew, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella choleraesuis, Salmonella typhi, Salmonella typhosa, Serratia marcescens, Shigella sonnei, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Trichophyton mentagrophytes.[6]
It will kill the causative agents of typhoid, gastroenteritis (some agents), rabies, cholera, several forms of meningitis, whooping cough, gonorrhea and several types of dysentery.[9] It is not effective against spore related illnesses, such as tetanus or anthrax, or against non-enveloped viruses such as poliovirus, rhinovirus, hepatitis B, or hepatitis C.

Pine oil 85% has a relatively low human toxicity level, a low corrosion level and limited persistence; however, it irritates the skin and mucous membranes and has been known to cause breathing problems.[8][10] Large doses may cause central nervous system depression.
Industrially, Pine oil 85% is used as a frother in mineral extraction from ores.[1] For example, in copper extraction Pine oil 85% is used to condition copper sulfide ores for froth flotation. Therefore, it is important in the industry for the froth flotation process. It has largely been replaced by synthetic alcohols and polyglycol ethers.
Essential oils are increasingly gaining mainstream popularity as possible alternatives to medications. These plant-derived ingredients are still being studied for their medicinal effects, and Pine oil 85% is no exception.
Made from pine trees, pine essential oil offers numerous purported health benefits and is notable for its strong woody scent.
While pine tree oil may offer some benefits, there’s also possible side effects to consider, just like with any other type of essential oil. Learn the pros and cons so that you can best decide whether pine tree essential oil is worth trying.
Pine essential oil is a derivative of pine tree needles, which are known for their strong aroma. In fact, one sniff of Pine oil 85% might remind you of a Christmas tree.
As with other essential oils, pine has been used in traditional medicine for centuries.
Pine scents and oil extracts are also abundant in everyday items. These include floor and furniture cleaners, as well as disinfectants and air fresheners.
However, oil extracts are not the same as essential oils because they don’t carry the same medicinal-strength properties.
Essential oils contain multiple chemical compounds that make them so powerful. As such, essential oils shouldn’t be ingested.

Pine oil 85% uses and benefits
Due to its aroma, pine essential oil is notable for its uplifting yet clearing scent. Because of this, pine essential oil can work as a room scent in a diffuser as well as in cleaning solutions.
The internet is full of anecdotes and articles that claim pine essential oil can offer more health benefits than just a nice scent. However, most of these claims lack clinical evidence.

Air fresheners and aromatherapy
Pine oil 85% extracts are often used in air fresheners for homes, offices, and vehicles. Essential oils, on the other hand, may be used in aromatherapy to create an uplifting and invigorating atmosphere — not just a nice scent.
Inhaling oils like pine may also have clearing effects in the case of illnesses like the common cold.

Skin antimicrobial
Some proponents claim that pine essential oil may be used topically (applied to the skin) as an antimicrobial, similar to tea tree oil. In theory, the oil could be used for minor skin infections and burns.
However, research indicates that Pine oil 85% doesn’t have much antimicrobial activity. Talk to a doctor before using Pine oil 85% for this purpose.

Reduced inflammation
Pine essential oil is also touted as having anti-inflammatory effects.
In theory, such effects could do two things:
Ease symptoms of inflammatory skin conditions, such as acne, eczema, and rosacea.
Alleviate pain from related health conditions, such as arthritis and muscle pain.
However, more research is needed on this front.
Other essential oils have in fact been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties. These include:
turmeric
ginger
frankincense
peppermint

Side effects of Pine oil 85%
When used in aromatherapy, essential oils can have effects on those who inhale them.
However, some essential oils are toxic to pets or dangerous for pregnant women and children. It’s also possible to have skin reactions to these oils, including pine essential oil.
Possible side effects include:
redness
hives
itchiness
dry skin
swelling
peeling skin
If you are allergic to pine trees, don’t use Pine oil 85%. While not considered common, some people are allergic to pine pollen. You might be allergic to pine essential oil if you develop allergy-like symptoms, such as sneezing or skin rashes.
How to use pine essential oil
Pine essential oil can be used in a number of different ways, including inhalation and topical variations. Talk to a doctor about the following methods.

Use a diffuser
Diffusing is one of the most popular ways to use essential oils.
You can make a quick, safe room scent by putting a few drops of pine essential oil into a diffuser filled with water. Once the device is turned on, the diffuser then releases cool steam.
You can purchase a diffuser online.

If you don’t have a diffuser on hand, you may still reap the aromatic benefits of pine essential oil through inhalation.
Simply pour a couple of drops on a tissue, and hold the tissue in front of your face while you inhale deeply through your nose.
You can also try holding the bottle of essential oil underneath your nose.

Apply it topically
Pine essential oil may be used topically, either through direct application or via a massage.
It’s important to dilute pine essential oil with a carrier oil before applying directly to your skin. Add a tablespoon of almond, jojoba, or coconut oil to a few drops of pine essential oil.
You can also use this combination for a patch test 24 hours beforehand to make sure you’re not sensitive to pine.

Add some to your bath
Essential oils can also be used in the bath. Add several drops of the essential oil to warm running water. Watch for slippery surfaces as you get in and out of the tub.

Pine oil 85%s and Turpentine
Pine oil 85%s, derived by steam distillation of wood from pines, consist of a mixture of terpene alcohols. Pine oil 85%–based compounds may contain small amounts of phenol derivatives. The concentration of Pine oil 85% in disinfectant cleaners varies from 0.3% to 60%.18 Many “Pine oil 85%” cleaners marketed in the United States are pine scented but contain little or no actual Pine oil 85%, so it is important to check the label on pine-scented cleaners. Pine Sol, one of the most widely used Pine oil 85% cleaners, contains 8% to 12% Pine oil 85%, 3% to 7% alkyl alcohol ethoxylates, 1% to 5% isopropanol, and 1% to 5% sodium petroleum sulfonate in its “Original” formulation19; other cleaners branded as Pine Sol contain no Pine oil 85%. Turpentine is a hydrocarbon mixture of terpenes derived from Pine oil 85% rather than petroleum and is often applied as a paint thinner.

The oral LD50 of Pine oil 85% ranges from 1 to 2.7 mL/kg BW. A substantially lower dose results in severe toxicosis.2 Pine oil 85% is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and is metabolized by the liver to be excreted in urine as glucuronide conjugates. High concentrations of ingested Pine oil 85% are demonstrable in lung tissue, lending a characteristic pine or turpentine odor to the breath.18 As is true for phenolic compounds, cats are more susceptible than other species to Pine oil 85% toxicoses.20

Pine oil 85%s are directly irritating to mucous membranes, producing erythema of the oropharynx, mouth, and skin. Ocular exposure causes marked blepharospasm, epiphora, photosensitivity, and erythema of the conjunctiva and sclera.2 Ingestion results in nausea, hypersalivation, bloody vomiting, and abdominal pain. Systemic effects include weakness and CNS depression, ataxia, hypotension, and respiratory depression. Pulmonary toxicity is due to aspiration during ingestion or from emesis or may be due to chemical pneumonitis from absorption of the Pine oil 85% through the gastrointestinal tract with subsequent deposition in the lung.18 Myoglobinuria and acute renal failure may develop following massive ingestions. A cat that ingested 100 mL of undiluted Pine Sol had severe depression, ataxia, unresponsive pupils, and shock, and died within 12 hours.20 Pulmonary edema, acute centrilobular hepatic necrosis, and total renal cortical necrosis were present at necropsy examination.20

Prompt dilution with milk, egg white, or water should occur following ingestion of Pine oil 85% disinfectants. Because of rapid onset of depression and the danger of aspiration pneumonia, emesis is often contraindicated, and even gastric lavage with placement of a cuffed endotracheal tube poses risk. Dilution should be followed by the administration of activated charcoal and a saline or osmotic cathartic. Symptomatic and supportive care, consisting of maintenance of renal perfusion and acid-base and electrolyte balance, is crucial. Animals that have their dermis exposed should be bathed with soap and then rinsed with copious amounts of water as soon as feasible after the exposure.

Disinfecting liquid all purpose cleaners
One of the other advantages of Pine oil 85% in an all purpose cleaner is that it can also function as a disinfecting ingredient, although it is not very broad spectrum (effective primarily against Gram-negative bacteria) and requires fairly high concentrations as compared to other disinfectants. Pine oil 85% acts as a dual purpose ingredient, participating in both cleaning and disinfecting. This is in contrast to quaternary ammonium surfactants, “quats” that do not participate in cleaning and can actually hamper it by interacting with anionic surfactants. However, quats do remain the most popular disinfecting choice for all purpose cleaners. In general anionic surfactants are not combined with the quats because quats decrease the cleaning effectiveness of the anionics and, the interaction with the anionics can deactivate the disinfection action of the quats. Therefore, disinfecting all purpose cleaners are generally based on nonionic or amphoteric surfactants. Hypochlorite bleach is also a popular choice, but, as noted in other sections, it is so chemically aggressive that only soap or amine oxide surfactants can be combined with it to create a cleaning formulation. On the positive side, hypochlorite bleach is broad spectrum, as its mechanism of chemically attacking organic structures via oxidization makes essentially all organisms vulnerable. However, bleach, like other antimicrobials, is much less effective on porous surfaces. Table B.2.I.6 defines the pros and cons of different disinfecting ingredients.

Pine oil 85% consists of complex mixtures of monoterpene hydrocarbons (alpha, beta-pinene) and oxygenated monoterpenes (terpineol, borneol, bornyl acetate) [28]. Compared to other disinfectants, antimicrobial activity is relatively low. Concentrated formulations may contain over 50% Pine oil 85% with soap/anionic surfactant and alcohol to provide a blooming effect when diluted in water. End use concentrations of more than 0.5% are often required for disinfection. Quaternary ammonium compounds or phenolics may be combined with reduced levels of Pine oil 85% to improve disinfectant activity while retaining the characteristic pine scent.

Pine oil 85% Disinfectants
Toxicokinetics
Pine oil 85% is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and metabolized, with glucuronide conjugation, in the liver. Inhalation, or systemic distribution, of absorbed Pine oil 85% to the lungs may cause chemical pneumonitis. Conjugates are excreted in the urine, although if a large amount has been ingested, there may be a pine or turpentine odor to the breath. The LD50 of Pine oil 85% is in the range 1–2.5 mL/kg BW. Cats, because of their limited capacity for glucuronidation, are particularly susceptible to toxicosis.

Mode(s) of Action
Pine oil 85% is directly irritating to mucous membranes, and is also a central nervous system (CNS) and respiratory depressant.

Clinical Signs
Clinical signs include nausea, hypersalivation, vomiting, and evidence of abdominal pain. Vomitus may contain blood. Systemic clinical signs include CNS depression, weakness, ataxia, hypotension, respiratory depression, pneumonitis, pulmonary edema, myoglobinuria, renal failure, and hepatic failure.
Clinical signs of ocular exposure are those of blepharospasm, epiphora and injected conjunctiva, and sclera.

Treatment
Administer egg white, milk, and/or water to dilute the toxicant. Induction of emesis is contraindicated and gastric lavage is hazardous and unlikely to be justified. Activated charcoal may be helpful. Acid–base and electrolyte balance should be monitored, and renal perfusion maintained. Care for other clinical signs is symptomatic and supportive.
Animals that have been subject to dermal exposure should be washed with copious water and with soap. Ocular exposure should be treated with irrigation with physiological saline or water for at least 20 minutes.

As with all other New Directions Aromatics products, Pine oil 85% is for external use only. It is imperative to consult a medical practitioner before using this oil for therapeutic purposes.
