Other provisions1. In the directions for use of the feed additive and premixtures, the storage conditions and stability to heat treatment must be indicated.

2. If Bacillus velezensis ATCC PTA-6737 is to be used in feed containing coccidiostats, this feed additive is authorised for use with the following coccidiostats only, and in accordance with their individual authorisation criteria:

  • Decoquinate

  • Diclazuril

  • Lasalocid A sodium

  • Maduramicin ammonium
