Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench.: Echinacea absolute

Additive Sensory additives Not authorised in animal feed (EU)

Description

What it is. Echinacea absolute obtained from Echinacea purpurea (L.) Moench through extraction of fragrant plant material. It is a sensory additive in functional group 2b, flavouring compounds, intended for animal feed.

What it is for. This flavouring substance is generally used to provide an olfactory or taste note to compound feed, in order to influence palatability. Its use falls under occasional technological application rather than nutritional supply. The species and stages concerned are not specified in the available documentation; use follows common practice for flavouring substances in formulation.

Points to watch. No maximum content is specified in the available sources; refer to the current regulatory authorisation for conditions of use. The composition of a plant absolute may vary depending on origin and extraction process, which warrants attention to batch-to-batch quality consistency.
