ANNEX Identification number of the feed additive Name of the holder of authorisation Name of the additive Composition, chemical formula, description, analytical method Species or category of animal Maximum age Minimum content Maximum content Minimum content Maximum content Other provisions End of period of authorisation CFU/kg of complete feed with a moisture content of 12 % CFU/l of water for drinking Category: zootechnical additives. Functional group: gut flora stabilisers. 4b1896 Chr. Hansen A/S Bacillus paralicheniformis DSM 33902 and Bacillus subtilis DSM 33903 Additive composition Preparation of Bacillus paralicheniformis DSM 33902 and Bacillus subtilis DSM 33903 containing a minimum total of Bacillus spp . 3,2 × 10 10 CFU/g additive (1:1 ratio) Solid form Characterisation of the active substance Viable spores of Bacillus paralicheniformis DSM 33902 and Bacillus subtilis DSM 33903. Analytical method ( 1 ) For enumeration in the feed additive, compound feed and water for drinking: Spread-plate method on tryptone soya agar (EN 15784) For identification: DNA sequencing methods or Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE) (CEN/TS 17697) Ruminants for milk production/ reproduction - 3,8 × 10 8 - 7,4 × 10 7 - 1. The additive may be used via water for drinking. 2. In the directions for use of the additive and premixtures, the storage conditions, the stability to heat treatment and the stability in water for drinking shall be indicated. 3. When it is used via water for drinking, the additive shall be used ensuring a minimum dose of: 9,6 × 10 9 CFU/animal/day. 4. For users of the additive and premixtures, feed business operators shall establish operational procedures and organisational measures to address potential risks resulting from their use. Where those risks cannot be eliminated by such procedures and measures, the additive and premixtures shall be used with personal breathing and skin protective equipment. 1 January 2036 ( 1 ) Details of the analytical methods are available at the following address of the Reference Laboratory: https://joint-research-centre.ec.europa.eu/eurl-fa-eurl-feed-additives/eurl-fa-authorisation/eurl-fa-evaluation-reports_en .
