Description
What it is. Essential oil obtained by distillation of Trachyspermum ammi (ajowan) seeds, a plant of the Apiaceae family. Its characteristic aromatic composition is dominated by phenolic compounds typical of this species.
What it is for. This oil is classified as a flavouring compound (sensory additive, functional group 2b). This type of product is generally used for its flavouring properties, to influence palatability or feed intake in compound feed. Common use involves low-level incorporation into formulas, across species, without targeting a specific physiological stage.
Points to watch. No maximum content is specified in the available sources; refer to the current regulatory annex for authorised inclusion levels. As a flavouring substance, its composition may vary depending on botanical origin and extraction process, which justifies quality control upon receipt.
