Description

What it is. 2-Acetyl-3-methylpyrazine is a synthetic aromatic substance belonging to functional group 2b of sensory additives (CAS 23787-80-6). It is a chemically defined compound used for its odor and flavor properties.

What it is for. This aromatic additive is generally used to modulate the olfactory and gustatory profile of feed intended for cats and dogs, in order to enhance palatability. Its use falls within pet food formulations, alongside other recipe components.

The variability of organoleptic effects depending on the feed matrix warrants caution when determining the practical dosage.
