Rapid and sensitive UHPLC screening of food dyes in carbonated beverages using UV/Vis wavelength switching

The analysis of food dyes in carbonated beverages is important as many of these dyes are either controlled substances or are being phased out in certain countries due to their reported adverse health effects. Being able to identify and quantify food dyes in beverages quickly and with high sensitivity is therefore important.

Rapid and sensitive UHPLC screening of additives in carbonated beverages with a robust organic acid column

The analysis of food additives in carbonated beverages is important as many additives are controlled as part of the formulations of these beverages. In addition, analysis may detect possible counterfeiting of branded products. Being able to identify and quantify food additives in beverages quickly and with high sensitivity is therefore important.

Fast Separations of Anions and Organic Acids in a Carbonated Beverage Using High-Pressure Capillary IC 

Determinations of organic acids in beverages are important to the industry. These acidulants and flavoring agents maintain beverage freshness, minimize microbiological growth, and add a characteristic flavor. Analysis is required to meet product labeling requirements in 21 CFR part 101.

Extraction of Vanillin From a Cola Soft Drink Using SOLA with Analysis by GC-MS

Vanillin is a widely used flavor compound in food and beverages. In this application note, extraction and quantification of vanillin from cola is demonstrated using a revolutionary new solid phase extraction product, SOLA and an acid-deactivated polyethylene glycol phase GC column.
