Description
What it is. Essential oil obtained from the seeds of Elettaria cardamomum (L.) Maton, a liquid characterised according to ISO 4733:2004, containing 30-42% terpinyl acetate and at most 0.0002% methyleugenol.
What it is for. This additive belongs to functional group 2b, flavouring compounds, and is intended to influence the organoleptic properties of feed. It is authorised for all animal species and must be incorporated via a premix. As a sensory additive, it is generally used to support feed palatability and intake, without a specific nutritional claim.
Points to watch. The label must state a maximum recommended active substance content of 5 mg/kg in complete feed at 12% moisture; above this level the functional group, identification number, name and quantity added must be indicated on premix labels. Storage conditions and thermal stability must be specified in the instructions for use. Due to inhalation, ingestion, skin and eye contact risks, operational procedures and, where necessary, personal protective equipment are required when handling the additive and premixes.
