THE EUR OPEAN COMMISSION, 
Having regar d to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, 
Having regar d to Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 22 September 2003 
on additives for use in animal nutr ition (1), and in particular Article 9(2) thereof, 
Whereas: 
(1)  Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 provi des for the author isation of additives for use in animal nutr ition and for the 
grounds and procedures for granting such author isation. Article 10 of that Regulation provides for the 
re-evaluation of additives author ised pursuant to Council Directive 70/524/EEC (2). 
(2)  The substances trimethylamine, trimethyl amine hydroc hlor ide, 3-meth ylbutylamine for all animal species, excep t 
laying hens and 2-metho xyeth yl benzene, 1,3-dimetho xy-benzene, 1,4-dimetho xy-benzene, 1-isoprop yl-2- 
metho xy-4-meth ylbenzene for all animal species (‘the substances concer ned’) were author ised without a time limit 
by Directive 70/524/EEC as feed additives for all animal species. Those substances were subsequently entered in 
the Regist er of feed additives as existing products, in accordance with Article 10 (1) of Regulation (EC) 
No 1831/2003. 
(3)  In accordance with Article 10(2) of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003 in conjunction with Article 7 thereof, an 
application was submitte d for the re-evaluation as feed additives of trimeth ylamine, trimethylamine 
hydrochloride , 3-meth ylbutylamine for all animal species, excep t laying hens and 2-metho xyet hyl benzene, 
1,3-dimetho xy-benzene, 1,4-dimetho xy-benzene, 1-isoprop yl-2-metho xy-4-meth ylbenzene for all animal 
species. The applicant requested those additives to be classified in the additive categor y ‘sensor y additives ’. That 
application was accompan ied by the particulars and documents required under Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) 
No 1831/2003. 
(4)  The European Food Safe ty Author ity (‘the Auth ority’) concluded in its opinions of 25 Apr il 2012 (3) that, under 
the proposed conditions of use in feed, the substances concer ned do not have adverse effects on animal health, 
human health or the environment. The Auth ority has concluded that, since the substances concer ned are 
efficacious when used in food as flavourings and their function in feed is essentially the same as in food, no 
further demonstration of efficacy was necessar y. Theref ore, that conclusion can be extrapolat ed to feed. The 
applicant withdrew the application for wate r for drinking, however , it should be possible to use the substances 
concer ned within compo und feeds which are subsequently administered via water . 
(5)  Restr ictions and conditions should be provid ed for to allow better control. Since safety reasons do not require the 
setting of a maximum content and taking into account the re-evaluation performe d by the Authority, 
recommended cont ents should be indicated on the label of the additive. Where such cont ents are excee ded, 
certain information should be indicate d on the label of premixtures and on the labelling of feed mat erials and 
compo und feed. 
(6)  The Auth ority noted that trimethyl amine, trimethyl amine hydrochlori de, 3-methyl butylamineare recognised as 
being corrosive to the eye, strong ly irritant or corrosive to the skin and irritant to respirato ry tract. Asthma like 23.2.2018 L 53/14 Official Jour nal of the European Union EN     
(1)OJ L 268, 18.10.2003, p. 29. 
(2)Council Directive 70/524/EEC of 23 November 1970 concer ning additives in feedingstuffs (OJ L 270, 14.12.1970, p. 1). 
(3)EFSA Journal 2012;10(5):2678 and EFSA Jour nal 2012;10(5):2679. symp toms may occur after inhalation. For 2-metho xyet hyl benzene, 1,3-dimetho xy-benzene, 1,4-dimetho xy- 
benzene, 1-isoprop yl-2-metho xy-4-meth ylbenzene poten tial hazards for skin and eye contact and respirator y 
exposure are recognised. Consequently , appropr iate protective measures should be taken. The Author ity does not 
consider that there is a need for specifi c requirements of post-market monitoring. It also verified the repor t on 
the method of analysis of the feed additives in feed submitte d by the Reference Laborator y set up by Regulation  
(EC) No 1831/2003. 
(7)  The assessment of the substances concer ned shows that the conditions for author isation, as provided for in 
Article 5 of Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, are satisfied. According ly, the use of those substances should be 
author ised as specified in the Annex to this Regulation. 
(8) Since safety reasons do not require the immediate application of the modifications to the conditions of author i­
sation for the substances concer ned, it is appropr iate to allow a transitional period for interest ed parties to 
prepare themselves to meet the new requirements resulting from the author isation. 
(9)  The measures provi ded for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on 
Plants, Animals, Food and Feed, 
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGUL ATION: 
Article 1 
Author isation 
The substances specifi ed in the Annex, belonging to the additive catego ry ‘sensor y additives ’ and to the functional group 
‘flavouri ng compounds’, are author ised as feed additives in animal nutr ition subject to the conditions laid down in that 
Annex. 
Article 2 
Transitional measures 
1. The substances specifi ed in the Annex and premixtures containing those substances, whic h are produced and 
labelled before 15 Sept ember 2018 in accordance with the rules applicable before 15 March 2018 may continue to be 
placed on the mark et and used until the existing stoc ks are exhausted. 
2. Feed mat erials and compo und feed containing the substances specified in the Annex whic h are produced and 
labelled before 15 March 2019 in accordance with the rules applicable before 15 March 2018 may continue to be 
placed on the mark et and used until the existing stoc ks are exhausted if they are intende d for food-producing animals. 
3. Feed mat erials and compo und feed containing the substances specified in the Annex whic h are produced and 
labelled before 15 March 2020 in accordance with the rules applicable before 15 March 2018 may continue to be 
placed on the mark et and used until the existing stocks are exhaust ed if they are intende d for non-f ood-producing 
animals.

Chemical formula: C11H16O 
CAS number: 1076-56-8 
FLAVIS No: 04.043 
Method of analy sis(1) 
For the determination of 1-isopro ­
pyl-2-metho xy-4-methylbenzene in 
the feed additive and in feed fla­
vouring premixtures: 
Gas chromat ography mass spectro ­
metr y with retention time locking 
GC-MS-RT L. 4.On the label of the additive the fol­
lowing shall be indicated : 
‘Recommended maximum cont ent 
of the active substance of complet e 
feedingstuff with a moisture con­
tent of 12 %: 1 mg/kg’ . 
5.The functional group, the identif i­
cation number , the name and the 
added amount of the active sub­
stance shall be indicated on the 
label of premixtures and on the la­
belling of feed mate rials and com ­
pound feedingstuffs, if the cont ent 
of the active substance in complet e 
feedingstuff with a moisture con­
tent of 12 % excee ds: 1 mg/kg. 
6.For users of the additive and pre­
mixtures, feed business operators 
shall establish operational proce ­
dures and organisational measures 
to address poten tial risks by inhala ­
tion, dermal contact or eyes con­
tact. Where those risks cannot be 
eliminated or reduced to a mini ­
mum by such procedures and
