Regulatory evidence across markets

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

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.

Cuprous iodide

Copper(I) iodide is an iodide of copper that occurs naturally as the rare mineral marshite. It is also used in organic synthesis, cloud seeding, to stabilize heat in nylon, and as a source of dietary iodine in table salt and animal feed. Copper is a chemical element with the symbol Cu and atomic number 29. Copper is an essential elements in plants and animals as it is required for the normal functioning of more than 30 enzymes. It occurs naturally throughout the environment in rocks, soil, water, and air. (L277, L278, L293) — Toxin and Toxin Target Database (T3DB)
