  • Corrigendum to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2077 of 26 November 2021 concerning the authorisation of L-valine produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum CGMCC 7.366 as a feed additive for all animal species, 32021R2077R(01), March 10, 2022
Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/2077of 26 November 2021concerning the authorisation of L-valine produced by Corynebacterium glutamicum CGMCC 7.366 as a feed additive for all animal species(Text with EEA relevance)
Article 1The substance specified in the Annex, belonging to the additive category "nutritional additives" and to the functional group "amino acids, their salts and analogues", is authorised as a feed additive in animal nutrition subject to the conditions laid down in that Annex.
Article 2This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.ANNEX

3c371ii-L-valineAdditive compositionPowder with a minimum content of L-valine of 98 % (on a dry matter basis) and a maximum content of 1,5 % water.All species-1.The additive may be used via water for drinking.2.In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, the storage conditions, the stability to heat treatment and the stability in water for drinking shall be indicated.3.The label of the additive and premixture shall indicate the following: "The supplementation with L-valine, in particular via water for drinking, should take into account all essential and conditional essential amino acids in order to avoid imbalances."4.For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address the potential risks by inhalation, eye or dermal contact. Where those risks cannot be eliminated or reduced to a minimum by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixtures shall be used with appropriate personal protective equipment, including eyes, skin and breathing protection.19 December 2031
