Regulatory evidence across markets

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

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.

Asiaticoside

Asiaticoside is a triterpenoid saponin that is a trisaccharide derivative of asiatic acid. Isolated from Centella asiatica, it exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and wound-healing properties. It has a role as an antioxidant, an antifibrotic agent, an antidepressant, an antineoplastic agent, a neuroprotective agent, 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 an asiatic acid. — ChEBI
