Experiments proved that aromatic plant volatiles can alleviate depression, anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities, and regulate the human nervous system, and it has a health function on the human body 2 Experimental section [14,15]. Roses are the most important crop in the fl fl oriculture industry and used as cut owers, pot plants, 2.1 Materials and garden ornamentals. They are also a source of natural fragrances. Rose is used in producing rose water, attar of rose, and essential oils in the perfume industry. Selecting healthy, growing white tulip and red rose Tulip is world-famous flowers with bright colors, unique plants, used in this experiment was verified at the shape, and delightful scent. It is called “the queen of flowering stage as experimental materials cultivated in flowers”.

EPA is assessing Medium-chain Chlorinated Paraffin (MCCP) and Long-Chain Chlorinated Paraffin (LCCP) chemicals as part of its New Chemicals Review program. As with all Premanufacture Notice (PMN) submissions, EPA followed the approaches, methods and statutory provisions of TSCA section 5 for the chlorinated paraffin PMNs assessments. 1 CONCLUSIONS Based on its assessment of the available hazard and exposure information on P-12-0282, P-12- 0283, and P-12-0284, EPA/OPPT concludes the following pertaining to the manufacturing, processing and use1 of these PMN substances: 1. Occupational Exposures: given the assumptions, data and scenarios evaluated in this assessment, there were low risks found for workers from either dermal or inhalation exposures. 2. General Population Exposures (from environmental releases): given the assumptions, data and scenarios evaluated in this assessment, there were low risks found to humans from environmental releases via exposure to drinking water or fish ingestion. 3. Environmental Assessment: a. Using estimated environmental concentrations, the PMN substances may present an unreasonable risk following acute and chronic exposures to aquatic organisms. i. The two exceptions are the low-end estimates for aquatic concentrations for water releases from plastic converting use and commercial use of solvents, paints and adhesives (for the MCCP PMN P-12-0283) b.

    United States Envimnmentai Protection Agency Control Technology Center EPA-600 12-91-061 November 1991 EVALUATION OF VOC EMISSIONS FROM HEATED ROOFING ASPHALT RESEARCH REPORTING SERIES Research reports of the Office of Research and Development. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, have been grouped into nine series. These nine broad cate- gories were established to facilitate further development and application of en- vironmental technology. Elimination of traditional grouping was consciously planned to foster technology transfer and a maximum interface in related fields. The nine series are: 1. Environmental Health Effects Research 2. Environmental Protection Technology 3. Ecological Research 4. Environmental Monitoring 5. Socioeconomic Environmental Studies 6. Scientific and Technical Assessment Reports (STAR) 7. Interagency Energy-Environment Research and Development 8. "Special" Reports 9. Miscellaneous Reports This report has been assigned to the ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECT1ON TECH- NOLOGY series. This series describes research performed to develop and dem- onstrate instrumentation, equipment, and methodology to repair or prevent en- vironmental degradation from point and non-point sources of pollution. This work provides the new or improved technology required for the control and treatment of pollution sources to meet environmental quality standards.
