Why this verdict

E1517 is glyceryl diacetate (diacetin), a diacetic ester of glycerol used as a solvent and carrier in flavours and food colours. SANHA classifies E1517 as Mushbooh and notes that the glycerol component must be verified, since glycerol can be plant-derived, animal-derived, or synthetic. No other major halal authority in the source corpus has published a position on E1517. Without source disclosure the additive defaults to doubtful unless the product carries halal certification.
