DESCRIPTION:
Carnosic acid is an oil soluble of natural antioxidants extracted from dry leaves of Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis). Top class vegetable oil has been used as the carrier. Applying modern techniques of extraction, characteristic odour and flavour have been reduced in our products.
Carnosic acid has antimicrobial and antifungal activities and prevents discolouration of meat and meat products.
Recommended dosage of Carnosic acid is 0.02-0.1% calculated on the fat content. At recommended level of dosage, the final product has minimal or no characteristic taste, smell, colour or odour generally associated with Rosemary extracts.
