| 4d3 | Vetagro SpA | Preparation of protected citric acid, sorbic acid, thymol and vanillin | Additive composition Preparation of protected microbeads containing citric acid, sorbic acid, thymol and vanillin with a minimum of: Citric acid: 25 g/100 g Thymol: 1,7 g/100 g Sorbic acid: 16,7 g/100 g Vanillin: 1 g/100 g | Chickens for fattening Chickens reared for laying All minor avian species for fattening and reared for laying | - | 200 | - | 1. In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, the storage conditions and stability to heat treatment shall be indicated. 2. The instructions of use shall include the following: ‘The total maximum content by the different sources of citric acid and sorbic acid in complete feed shall not be exceeded’. 3. For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address potential risks resulting from their use: skin and eyes irritant and a skin sensitiser. Where those risks cannot be eliminated or reduced to a minimum by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixtures shall be used with personal protective equipment, including skin, eyes and breathing protection. | 6.1.2031 |
