Description
What it is. Cyclohexyl acetate is an aromatic substance obtained by chemical synthesis (CAS 622-45-7, FLAVIS number 09.027), with the chemical formula C8H14O2, and a purity above 98 %.
What it is for. This sensory additive of functional group 2b is used as a flavouring in feed for all animal species. It must be incorporated in the form of a premixture. As is generally the case for this type of aromatic substance, it would typically be used to modulate the palatability of compound feed.
Points to watch. The recommended maximum content of active substance is 0.05 mg/kg of complete feed (12 % moisture) for marine animals and 1 mg/kg for other species or categories. If the dose indicated on the premixture label would result in exceeding these levels, the functional group, identification number, name and quantity of active substance added must appear on the label. Storage conditions and stability to heat treatment must be specified in the instructions for use, and protective measures (skin, eyes, respiratory tract) are required where exposure risks exist. The authorisation is valid until 9 August 2032.
