Description
What it is. Valerian root tincture (Valeriana officinalis L.), obtained by hydroalcoholic extraction of the dried root of the plant. It is a sensory flavouring additive, with composition varying according to the extraction process.
What it is for. This additive is generally used for its flavouring properties, to modulate the palatability of compound feed. As a group 2b substance, its use targets a sensory effect rather than a nutritional function. It could be used in feed for several species, with no particular physiological stage identified.
Points to watch. No quantified maximum content is available in the sources; use must therefore comply with the regulatory provisions applicable to flavouring substances. The composition of the tincture may vary depending on the plant origin and extraction process, which warrants quality control upon receipt.
