Linalyl formate

Additive Sensory additives Authorised in animal feed (EU)

Description

What it is. Linalyl formate is a flavouring substance obtained by chemical synthesis, with a purity of ≥ 90 %, identified by CAS number 115-99-1 and FLAVIS number 09.080. It belongs to functional group 2b (flavouring compounds) and is incorporated into feed in the form of a premixture.

What it is for. This additive is generally used for its flavouring properties, to modulate the acceptability or olfactory uniformity of compound feed. It is authorised for all animal species. Its use falls within complete feed formulations where standardisation of the aromatic profile is sought.

Points to watch. The additive label must state a recommended maximum content of active substance of 5 mg per kg of complete feed at 12 % moisture; exceeding this threshold when using the premixture requires enhanced labelling. Storage conditions and stability to heat treatment must be specified in the instructions for use, and personal protective measures (skin, eyes, respiratory tract) are required due to exposure risks.
