Description
What it is. Aromatic substance obtained by chemical synthesis, identified under FLAVIS number 02.029 (CAS 4602-84-0, formula C15H26O). The additive has a minimum purity of 96% and belongs to the functional group of flavouring compounds (2b).
What it is for. This substance is generally used for its flavouring properties in feed intended for all animal species, except marine animals. It is incorporated as a flavouring premixture, which is then included in the complete feed. As with sensory additives of this type, the purpose is to modulate palatability or odour profile of the feed rather than to provide a nutritional effect.
Points to watch. The recommended maximum content of active substance is 5 mg/kg of complete feed at 12% moisture; above this level, the premixture label must state the functional group, identification number, name and quantity added. Storage and stability conditions must be indicated in the instructions for use of the additive and premixtures. Personal protective equipment (respiratory, eye, skin) is required during handling due to inhalation and contact risks.
