3-Oxotetradecanoic acid glyceride (CAS 128331-49-7) is a glyceride of a keto (oxo) fatty acid, a class of compounds that can form during fat oxidation and contribute characteristic flavor notes. It's used in small amounts in flavoring applications, though little public detail describes its specific use or sensory profile.
What each registry publishes about 3-oxotetradecanoic acid glyceride.
Every row comes from a published regulator source, linked so you can read it yourself. "Prohibited" means a regulator has affirmatively banned it; "not authorized" means it has never been cleared for that use there. The two are not the same thing, so we never collapse them.
