Description
What it is. Amyris oil is a flavouring substance obtained from the wood of Amyris balsamifera L., by distillation. It belongs to the functional group of sensory additives (flavouring compounds, category 2b).
What it is for. It is generally used for its flavouring properties, in order to influence the palatability of feed. Like other substances in this group, its use remains limited to a flavouring role, without demonstrated nutritional function. Common use concerns species and categories for which a flavouring additive is authorised.
Points to watch. No quantified maximum content is specified in the available documentation. Use must comply with the authorisation conditions specific to group 2b flavouring substances, particularly regarding traceability and reasoned dosage. The variability in oil composition depending on botanical origin and extraction process should be taken into account.
