E631 Disodium inosinate — is it halal?

Description

A flavour enhancer: the disodium salt of inosine 5′-monophosphate. It is made by bacterial fermentation of sugars and starch (in patents and for feed IMP also with GM strains) or by enzymatic hydrolysis of yeast RNA. Animal origin: yes, documented — per Yamasa (1958), 5′-nucleotides were formerly also extracted from tissues such as mammalian muscle; Ajinomoto (1962)
