Verdict
Acorus gramineus extract contains β-asarone, a genotoxic constituent flagged by EMEA/HMPC; whole-plant extract likely has higher β-asarone content than callus-derived material, with dermal genotoxicity concerns despite EU SCF food limits (0.1 mg/kg) and lack of cosmetic-specific restrictions.
