Regulatory evidence across markets

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

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.

Myricetin

Myricetin is a hexahydroxyflavone that is flavone substituted by hydroxy groups at positions 3, 3', 4', 5, 5' and 7. It has been isolated from the leaves of Myrica rubra and other plants. It has a role as a geroprotector, an antioxidant, a hypoglycemic agent, an antineoplastic agent, a cyclooxygenase 1 inhibitor, a plant metabolite and a food component. It is a hexahydroxyflavone and a 7-hydroxyflavonol. It is a conjugate acid of a myricetin(1-). — ChEBI
