Overview

Studies suggest links between petroleum-derived, synthetic color additives (typically found in foods, over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, and cosmetics) and health issues for consumers. Both the EU and the US have regulations or warnings regarding additives in food, making it vitally important that your testing workflow is accurate.

In this webinar, we will demonstrate a single chromatographic method for the separation of nine petroleum-based dyes in a variety of consumer products. Using the Alliance iS HPLC System with PDA Detector and the PDA spectral library in Empower Software, you can successfully and efficiently separate the additives and identify individual colorants.

Learn how you can improve your food testing separations with your lab ally and Empower Software, ultimately delivering safer products for your consumers.
