Juniper Berries Oil FCC Food Grade
CAS: [8012-91-7]

DESCRIPTION
Juniper Berries Oil occurs as a colorless, faintly green or yellow liquid with a characteristic odor and an aromatic, bitter taste. It is the volatile oil obtained by steam distillation from the dried ripe fruit of the plant Juniperus communis L. var. erecta Pursh (Fam. Cupressaceae). It is soluble in most fixed oils and in mineral oil. It is insoluble in glycerin and in propylene glycol. The oil tends to polymerize during long storage.
Function: Flavoring agent.

REQUIREMENTS
Identification: The infrared absorption spectrum of the sample exhibits relative maxima at the same wavelengths as those of a typical spectrum as shown in the section on Infrared Spectra, using the same test conditions as specified therein.
Angular Rotation: Between −15° and 0°.
Refractive Index: Between 1.474 and 1.484 at 20°.
Specific Gravity: Between 0.854 and 0.879.
