Is Methoxy PEG-36 Bilirubinamide vegan?

Methoxy PEG-36 Bilirubinamide is an ethoxylated derivative of bilirubin, a pigment derived from the breakdown of heme, conjugated with polyethylene glycol (average 36 units). Because bilirubin is typically sourced from animal bile, its vegan and vegetarian status is uncertain depending on source and purification.

An ingredient is considered vegan if it contains no animal-derived components at any point in its production.
