Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2939Same rate: Free

If for non-ergot vegetable alkaloid sources

Chapter notes specify rye ergot for 2939.69; others default to 2939.99.

3824.99Higher: 15% vs Free

If when diluted beyond chapter note (d) limits

Excessive water or solvent dilution makes it a chemical preparation, not pure compound.
