Regulatory evidence across markets

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

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.

Madecassoside

Madecassoside is a triterpenoid saponin that is a trisaccharide derivative of madecassic acid. Isolated from Centella asiatica, it exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and antirheumatic activities. It has a role as an antioxidant, an antirheumatic drug, an anti-inflammatory agent, a vulnerary and a plant metabolite. It is a pentacyclic triterpenoid, a carboxylic ester, a triterpenoid saponin and a trisaccharide derivative. It is functionally related to a madecassic acid. It derives from a hydride of an ursane. — ChEBI
