3c381-L-isoleucine

Additive composition

Powder with a minimum content of L-isoleucine of 93,4 % (on a dry matter basis)

All animal species---
1.

L-isoleucine may be placed on the market and used as an additive consisting of a preparation.

2.

In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, the storage conditions, the stability to heat treatment and in water shall be indicated.

3.

The additive may be used via water for drinking.

4.

Declaration to be made on the label of the additive and premixture:

  • ‘The supplementation with L-isoleucine, in particular via water for drinking, shall take into account all essential and conditionally essential amino acids in order to avoid imbalances.’

  • L-isoleucine content.

5.

The endotoxin content of the additive and its dusting potential shall ensure a maximal endotoxin exposure of 1 600 IU endotoxins/m3 air c.

6.

For users of the additive and premixture, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address potential risks by inhalation. Where those risks cannot be eliminated or reduced to a minimum by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixture shall be used with personal protective equipment.
