The EU evaluates the safety and efficacy of angelica tincture as a feed additive for poultry, horses, dogs and cats

 foodmate 2022-12-19

Food Partner Network News On December 15, 2022, according to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), at the request of the European Commission, the EU Animal Feed Additives and Products (FEEDAP) Research Group was angelica A tincture derived from the roots of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels) as a scientific opinion on the safety and effectiveness of poultry, horse, dog and cat feed additives.

After evaluation, the panel concluded that the use of angelica tincture as a flavoring agent in animal feed is not expected to cause harm to the environment. Since angelica root has flavoring properties, its function in feed is basically the same as in food, so it is not considered necessary to further prove its efficacy. Some of the original articles are reported below:

Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of a tincture from the roots of Angelica sinensis (Oliv.) Diels (dong quai tincture) when used as a sensory additive in feed for horses, dogs and cats and in water for drinking for poultry species. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) co ncluded that the additive is safe for horses and dogs at the maximum proposed use level of 123 and 481 mg/kg complete feed, respectively. For cats, the calculated safe concentration is 184 mg/kg complete feed. For the poultry species, the calculated safe concentration in water for drinking is 79 mg/kg for chickens for fattening, 117 mg/kg for laying hens and 106 mg/kg for turkeys for fattening. No safety concern would arise for the consumer from the use of dong quai tincture up to the highest safe levels in feed. The additive under assessment should be considered as irritant to skin and eyes, and as a dermal and respiratory sensitiser. The use of the dong quai tincture as a flavour in animal feed was not expected to pose a risk for the environment. Since the root of A. sinensis has flavouring properties and its function in feed would be essentially the same as that in food, no further demonstration of efficacy is co nsidered necessary.
