Computed from named public guides — NOT independently scholar-ratified. For doubtful items, consult a scholar you trust. Halalyzer never invents a ruling and never uses AI for the verdict.

E483, spelled out. Tartaric-acid ester of stearyl alcohol; the stearyl/stearic feedstock may be plant or animal origin, so an unqualified name is Doubtful pending source verification. Matches the shipped E483 MUSHBOOH baseline. NOT scholar-ratified; cross-check vs GSO 2055-1:2015 (general animal-source provisions).
