There are papers done on carp too.
Try to google "A New Feeding Attractant, Dimethyl-β-propiothetin, for Freshwater Fish"

Im using it already but havent noticed any differences to my bait without it.
Why not using it in smaller doses in my feeding bait the exckusively in my hookbaits?

Legislation. It's not allowed lol.
Keep trying it, very easy to over and under do. It's a worth while inclusion when you find the right levels

I played with it in a few mixes, going from almost trace amounts up to blow your socks off absolutely ridiculously overdone. I didn't find it made a whole heap of difference. I suspect it's not that temperature tolerant, and was possibly boiling off, so I now prefer to just use it as an overspray on the finished dried baits.
Edit: I don't actually mean I boil my baits, but simmers off of stews off doesn't sound right but you get my drift

Don't want to come across as the morality police, however if there's a E.U.ban then it's for a good reason, and shouldn't be ignored. Even if it's not punishable by law or ever likely to be inspected or enforced.

Hugely overrated, like so many 'wonder' attractors these days.

Do you know the reason it's banned in the EU and only for hookbaits in the UK?

No. I don't and don't have the time to read the scientific papers to back it up. I'm sure they wouldn't bother to ban something most people have never heard of without a good reason.
