Regulatory evidence across markets

None of the 13 markets tracked here holds an imported rule under the name GLYCERYL BEHENATE.

That is a statement about this inventory, not about the law: no imported rule is not evidence that a substance is permitted. A rule may exist under a different name, under a CAS or EC number this glossary entry does not carry, or in a dataset not yet imported.

Glyceryl Monobehenate

1-behenoylglycerol is a fatty acid ester resulting from the formal condensation of the hydroxy group at position-1 of glycerol with the carboxy group of docosanoic acid. It has a role as an antineoplastic agent and a plant metabolite. It is a fatty acid ester and a 1-monoglyceride. It is functionally related to a glycerol and a docosanoic acid. — ChEBI
