Regulatory evidence across markets

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

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.

L-Aspartic Acid

L-aspartic acid is the L-enantiomer of aspartic acid. It has a role as a neurotransmitter, a mouse metabolite and an Escherichia coli metabolite. It is a L-alpha-amino acid, an aspartate family amino acid, an aspartic acid and a proteinogenic amino acid. It is a conjugate acid of a L-aspartate(1-). It is an enantiomer of a D-aspartic acid. — ChEBI
