—
Ion-exchange chromatography coupled with post-column derivatisation and visible or fluorescence detection (IEC-VIS/FLD) or
—
Ion-exchange chromatography coupled with post-column derivatisation and photometric detection (IEC-VIS)
For the quantification of glutamic acid in premixtures:

In the directions for use of the additive and premixture, the storage conditions and the stability to heat treatment shall be indicated.
2.
The additive may be used via water for drinking.
3.
For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address the potential risks by inhalation 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 breathing protection.
4.
Declarations to be made on the labelling of the additive and premixtures: ‘The supplementation with L-glutamic acid, in particular via water for drinking, should take into account all essential and conditionally essential amino acids in order to avoid imbalances.’
