Assessment of the feed additives tocopherol extracts from vegetable oils (1b306(i)), tocopherol‐rich extracts from vegetable oils (delta rich) (1b306(ii)) and alpha‐tocopherol (1b307) for all animal species for the renewal of their authorisation (ADM International Sàrl, DSM Nutritional Products Ltd., Europe‐Asia Import Export GmbH., Vitiva d.o.o., Kaesler Nutrition GmbH, Kemin Nutrisurance Europe SRL, LUCTA S.A., Vitae Caps S.A.U/Kensing)

Following a request from the European Commission, EFSA was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of vitamin E in the forms of tocopherol extracts from vegetable oils, tocopherol‐rich extracts from vegetable oils (delta rich) and alpha‐tocopherol, as technological feed additives for all animal species. The additives are already authorised for use in all animal species without a specified minimum or maximum level. The applicant provided evidence that the additives currently on the market comply with the existing conditions of authorisation. The EFSA Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) concluded that the additives remain safe for the target species, the consumer and the environment. Regarding user safety, the additives should be considered skin and respiratory sensitisers. Exposure of users by inhalation and dermal routes is considered a risk. The FEEDAP Panel cannot conclude on the eye irritation potential due to the lack of data. There is no need to assess the efficacy of the additives in the context of the renewal of the authorisation.
