Malic Acid (E296) can be used when the fruits or flowers you are using for your homebrew wine do not contain enough acidity on their own.
If the wine recipe needs a high acid content then adding Malic Acid can help.

E 296 (malic acid) is an organic compound which is an active ingredient in sour or tart fruits.
Malic Acid will give a tart apple taste when used in wines.
Not only can you use it to enhance taste and acidity but it also speeds up the fermentation process.

E 296 (malic acid) is an organic compound also known by the name of "apple acid" and "fruit acid", and it is contained in many prepared foods.
E 296 (malic acid) is found naturally in apple, and in particular in the skin, and other fruit.
E 296 (malic acid) is a so-called alpha-hydroxy organic acid, and it also present in many plant and animal species.

This intermediate is the key element in the main cellular energy production cycle, the Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle).
Malic acid is often present in the label of the food, but it is not dangerous or toxic to human health.
Its purpose is to increase the acidity of food, giving more flavour, but E 296 (malic acid) is also used as a flavouring substance and colour stabilizer.
E 296 (malic acid) is identified with the acronym E296.

This acidifying compound is widely used in the food industry and E 296 (malic acid) is generally obtained through a chemical synthesis.
E 296 (malic acid) is normally found in fruit juices - mostly of grape or apple - as well as in jellies, spreadable fruit, jams, wine and in some low calories foods.

In nature, E 296 (malic acid) is contained in foods such as prunes, currants, tomatoes and even bananas, in small quantities.
E 296 (malic acid) is closely related to acid and it is characterized by a sour, bitter, strong and penetrating taste.

Its purpose is to increase the acidity of food, giving more flavour, but E 296 (malic acid) is also used as a flavouring substance and colour stabilizer.
In food, E 296 (malic acid) may be used to acidify or flavor foods or prevent food discoloration.

E 296 (malic acid) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H6O5.
E 296 (malic acid) is a dicarboxylic acid that is made by all living organisms, contributes to the pleasantly sour taste of fruits, and is used as a food additive.
E 296 (malic acid) has two stereoisomeric forms -L- and D-enantiomers-, though only the L-isomer exists naturally.

The salts and esters of E 296 (malic acid) are known as malates.
The malate anion is an intermediate in the citric acid cycle.


Malic acid was first isolated from apple juice by Carl Wilhelm Scheele in 1785.
Antoine Lavoisier in 1787 proposed the name acide malique, which is derived from the Latin word for apple, mālum—as is its genus name Malus.
In German E 296 (malic acid) is named Äpfelsäure (or Apfelsäure) after plural or singular of the fruit apple, but the salt(s) Malat(e).

Malic acid is the main acid in many fruits, including apricots, blackberries, blueberries, cherries, grapes, mirabelles, peaches, pears, plums, and quince and is present in lower concentrations in other fruits, such as citrus.
E 296 (malic acid) contributes to the sourness of unripe apples.

Sour apples contain high proportions of the acid.
E 296 (malic acid) is present in grapes and in most wines with concentrations sometimes as high as 5 g/l.
E 296 (malic acid) confers a tart taste to wine; the amount decreases with increasing fruit ripeness.

The taste of malic acid is very clear and pure in rhubarb, a plant for which it is the primary flavor.
E 296 (malic acid) is also a component of some artificial vinegar flavors, such as "salt and vinegar" flavored potato chips.
In citrus, fruits produced in organic farming contain higher levels of malic acid than fruits produced in conventional agriculture.

The process of malolactic fermentation converts malic acid to much milder lactic acid.
Malic acid occurs naturally in all fruits and many vegetables, and is generated in fruit metabolism.
Malic acid, when added to food products, is denoted by E number E296.

Malic acid is the source of extreme tartness in United States-produced confectionery, the so-called extreme candy. It is also used with or in place of the less sour citric acid in sour sweets.
These sweets are sometimes labeled with a warning stating that excessive consumption can cause irritation of the mouth.

E 296 (malic acid) is approved for use as a food additive in the EU, US and Australia and New Zealand (where it is listed by its INS number 296).

ETYMOLOGY OF E 296 (MALIC ACID):
The word 'malic' is derived from Latin 'mālum', meaning 'apple'.
The related Latin word mālus, meaning 'apple tree', is used as the name of the genus Malus, which includes all apples and crabapples; and the origin of other taxonomic classifications such as Maloideae, Malinae, and Maleae.

BIOCHEMISTRY OF E 296 (MALIC ACID):
L-Malic acid is the naturally occurring form, whereas a mixture of L- and D-malic acid is produced synthetically.

Malate plays an important role in biochemistry.
In the C4 carbon fixation process, malate is a source of CO2 in the Calvin cycle.
In the citric acid cycle, (S)-malate is an intermediate, formed by the addition of an -OH group on the si face of fumarate.
It can also be formed from pyruvate via anaplerotic reactions.

Malate is also synthesized by the carboxylation of phosphoenolpyruvate in the guard cells of plant leaves.
Malate, as a double anion, often accompanies potassium cations during the uptake of solutes into the guard cells in order to maintain electrical balance in the cell.
The accumulation of these solutes within the guard cell decreases the solute potential, allowing water to enter the cell and promote aperture of the stomata.

PRODUCTION AND MAIN REACTIONS OF E 296 (MALIC ACID):
Racemic malic acid is produced industrially by the double hydration of maleic anhydride.
In 2000, American production capacity was 5,000 tons per year.

The enantiomers may be separated by chiral resolution of the racemic mixture.
S-Malic acid is obtained by fermentation of fumaric acid.

Malic acid was important in the discovery of the Walden inversion and the Walden cycle, in which (−)-malic acid first is converted into (+)-chlorosuccinic acid by action of phosphorus pentachloride.
Wet silver oxide then converts the chlorine compound to (+)-malic acid, which then reacts with PCl5 to the (−)-chlorosuccinic acid.
The cycle is completed when silver oxide takes this compound back to (−)-malic acid.

L-malic acid is used to resolve α-phenylethylamine, a versatile resolving agent in its own right.

PLANT DEFENSE:
Soil supplementation with molasses increases microbial synthesis of MA.
This is thought to occur naturally as part of soil microbe suppression of disease, so soil amendment with molasses can be used as a crop treatment in horticulture

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT E 296 (MALIC ACID):
1.What is Malic Acid?
E 296 (malic acid) is a dicarboxylic acid with chemical formula C4H6O5.
Its salts and esters are known as malates.
Together with another two acidulants, citric acid and fumaric acid, they’re all the key intermediates in the tricarboxylic acid cycle or KREBS cycle in our humans and most living cells.

2.What are the Natural Sources?
L-Malic acid is naturally present in a lot of fruits with other acidulants such as citric acid, tartaric acid and fumaric acid.
L-Malic acid and citric acid are the predominant acids in most fruits.

The following fruits typically contain 0.5-2.0% total acids and rich with it:
• Watermelon (99%)
• Apple (95%)
• Apricot (70%)
• Cherry (94%)
• Grape (60%)
• Peach (73%)
• Pear (77%)
Other fruit sources come from grapefruit, lime, lemon, mango, orange, pineapple, strawberry and so on.

3.How is it made?
The manufacturing processes of malic acid are different based on the types: L, D and DL.
Generally, L form is made from carbohydrates fermentation, DL form is synthesized from maleic anhydride and D type is separated from DL form.

a. L-Malic Acid
E 296 (malic acid) occurs naturally in various foods (as mentioned above) and can be produced from fermentation by glucose or other carbohydrates.

b. DL-Malic Acid
E 296 (malic acid) does not occur naturally and according to the FDA, E 296 (malic acid) can be commercially produced by hydration of fumaric acid or maleic acid.
EFSA also mentioned that DL-Malic acid is synthesized by hydration of maleic anhydride (the acid anhydride of maleic acid) under high temperature and pressure to form malic and fumaric acid.
Butane, butene, or benzene from petroleum are the starting materials for the synthesis of maleic anhydride.

c. D-Malic Acid
E 296 (malic acid) does not present naturally and can be manufactured by separating DL-malic acid, the process called chiral resolution.

4. What are the Health Benefits of Malic Acid?
Malic acid may help our body prevent urinary stones, relieve fibromyalgia, improve dry mouth and do good to our skin.

• Urinary Stones Prevention
• Fibromyalgia Relief
• Dry Mouth Sensation Improvement
• Skin Benefits

Urinary stones prevention:
According to a study in 2016 that malic acid can be a cheap way to prevent urinary stones.

Fibromyalgia relief :
A research in 1995 found that a high level of malic acid is safe and may be beneficial in the treatment of patients with fibromyalgia.

However, a recent study published in Medwave in 2019 reported that the use of magnesium and malic acid makes little or no difference on pain and on depressive symptoms in patients with fibromyalgia.

Dry mouth sensation improvement:
A study of 2018 published in Journal of Oral Science, finding that malic acid improves the oral health-related quality of life and dry mouth sensation in patients with xerostomia.

Skin benefits:
It functions as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) in skincare products.
Following are the benefits of alpha-hydroxy acid to skin:

Make the stratum corneum humid.
Promote exfoliation of the stratum corneum, enabling the stratum corneum thinner, softer, and improving skin smoothness.
Increase the firmness and thickness of the epidermis and dermis and improve skin smoothness and reduce wrinkles.

5. What are the Uses of Malic Acid?
Its food-grade is a widely used ingredient that can control PH, and enhance the flavor in food, also E 296 (malic acid) gives food a tart taste.
E 296 (malic acid) acts as a PH buffer when applied in cosmetics.

Food:
Flavoring agent:
With a tart taste of clean, mellow, smooth and lingering, malic acid is suitable to add together with other acidulants, high-intensity sweeteners, flavors and seasonings.

E 296 (malic acid) provides more natural flavor and intensify the impact of many flavors in foods or beverages, and also improves aftertaste.

Acidulant:
E 296 (malic acid) is also commonly added to food for PH adjustment and it can inhibit the growth of some bacterial for preservation.

When used in food, it has below advantages over other organic acids:

Good solubility and rapid dissolution
Lower hygroscopicity than citric or tartaric acids
Lower melting point than other acids
More sourness at low pH levels

Commonly we can see the following food with it:
Drinks: soda, beer
Energy-reduced or with no added sugar confectionery
Canned or bottled fruit and vegetables
Jams, jellies and marmalades
Table-top sweeteners

Cosmetics:
Per “European Commission database for information on cosmetic substances and ingredients”, it functions as a buffering agent in cosmetic and personal care products.
Commonly E 296 (malic acid) can be found in skincare cream and lotion.

6. Is Malic Acid Safe to Eat?
Yes, its safety used as a food additive has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA), as well as other authorities.

FDA:
FDA has approved the application of L and DL malic acid in food, except the baby food, at levels not to exceed good manufacturing practice.
E 296 (malic acid) is generally considered safe (GRAS) and can be used in food as a flavor enhancer, flavoring agent and adjuvant, and pH control agent.

7. Is E 296 (malic acid) Natural?
E 296 (malic acid) depends on the form of malic acid.
DL-malic acid is a chemical synthetic one so obviously it is not natural, nor is D-malic acid.
L form is natural as it occurs naturally in fruits and commercially made from fermentation.

8. Is E 296 (malic acid) Vegan?
Yes, as mentioned above, three types are all vegan as the raw material used and manufacturing process without the use of animal matter or products derived from animal origin.
As a food ingredient, E 296 (malic acid) is considered vegan and vegetarians can eat the food with it.

9. Is E 296 (malic acid) Halal?
Yes, it is generally recognised as halal as it is permitted under the Islamic Law and fulfill the conditions of Halal.
And we can find some manufacturers certificated with MUI halal.

10. Is E 296 (malic acid) Kosher?
Yes, it is kosher pareve. E296 has met all the “kashruth” requirements and can be certified as kosher. And may be certificated with passover for some suppliers.

11. Is E 296 (malic acid) Gluten free?:
Yes, it is typically gluten-free and people with celiacs can eat it.
The manufacturing process complies with the FDA’s definition of gluten free, that it does not contain wheat, rye, barley, or crossbreeds of these grains.

12. How much Malic Acid in Apple Juice?
Its content ranges from 0.2%-0.8% according to the apple variety, growing region, fruit maturity and juice extraction process.
Apple juice can be fermented to make apple cider vinegar.

13. Why Malic Acid cannot be used in Baby Food by the FDA?
E 296 (malic acid) is not approved for baby food because infants cannot quickly metabolize the D-isomer, which can lead to acidosis.

14. What is its Role in Wine?
The principal organic acids in grapes are L-tartaric and L-malic acid, accounting for more than 90% of the grape berry’s acid content.

The more a grape ripen, the less of its concentration, mostly due to metabolic respiration.
The concentration of L-tartaric acid is relatively constant.
It is the fluctuating concentration of L-malic acid that usually poses problems to wine makers.

In wine, malic acid functions as a flavoring agent to adjust the taste and a PH control agent which has a profound effect on the microbial stability of wine as it determines the survival and proliferation of bacteria and yeast during and after brewing.
The wine will taste flat and will be more susceptible to spoilage if there is not enough malic acid in it.

However, the wine will taste sour if there is too much of it.
So the amount of malic acid should be appropriate for the winemaker.

Once these by-products are removed, high purity E 466 is obtained.

As a general rule, the obtained material has a slight excess of sodium hydroxide and has to be neutralised.
The neutralisation endpoint can affect the properties of E 466.
In the final step, E 466 is dried, milled to the desired particle size, and packaged.

Food and pharmaceutical grade E 466 is required by law to contain not less than 99.5% pure E 466 and a maximum of 0.5% of residual salts (sodium chloride and sodium glycolate).
The degree of substitution (DS) can vary between 0.2-1.5, although E 466 is generally in the range of 0.6-0.95.

The DS determines the behaviour of E 466 in water: Grades with DS >0.6 form colloidal solutions in water that are transparent and clear, i.e the higher the content of carboxymethyl groups, the higher the solubility and smoother the solutions obtained.
E 466 with a DS below 0.6 tends to be only partially soluble.

E 466 is available as a white to almost white, odourless, tasteless, granular powder.

E 466 is the sodium salt of a carboxymethyl ether of 13 cellulose.
E 466 contains not less than 6.0 percent and not more than 12.0 percent of 14 sodium (Na) on the dried basis, corresponding to 0.53 -1.45 degree of 15 substitution.

Applications of E 466:
E 466 (CMC, methyl cellulose, Methylcellulose) is a modified cellulose gum (Thickener is E461).
E 466 tends to give clear, slightly gummy, solutions.

They are generally soluble in cold water and insoluble in hot.
E 466 is used to thicken dry mix beverage, syrups, ripples and ice cream, and also to stabilise ice cream, batters and sour milk.
E 466 gives moisture retention to cake mixes and water binding and thickening to icings.

E 466 can be used as a binder in the preparation of graphene nano-platelet based inks for the fabrication of dye sensitized solar cells (DSSCs).
E 466 can also be used as a viscosity enhancer in the development of tyrosinase based inks for the formation of electrodes for biosensor applications.
E 466 is used as a support material for a variety of cathodes and anodes for microbial fuel cells.

E 466 is used as a highly effective additive to improve E 466 and processing properties in various fields of application - from foodstuffs, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals to products for the paper and textile industries.

Building material additives, printing inks, coatings, pharmaceuticals, food, cosmetics, paper or textiles – there’s a long and growing list of applications.
Special-purpose cellulose derivatives produced by Wolff Cellulosics provide invisible yet indispensable benefits in countless everyday products.

Fields of Application:
Our cellulosic products perform all kinds of different functions in the various fields of application.

Their capabilities include:
Water retention
Gelling
Emulsifying
Suspending
Absorbing
Stabilising
Bonding
Forming films

E 466 is also used in numerous medical applications.

Some examples include:
Device for epistaxis (nose bleeding).
A poly-vinyl chloride (PVC) balloon is covered by E 466 knitted fabric reinforced by nylon.

The device is soaked in water to form a gel, which is inserted into the nose of the balloon and inflated.
The combination of the inflated balloon and the therapeutic effect of the E 466 stops the bleeding.

Fabric used as a dressing following ear nose and throat surgical procedures.

Water is added to form a gel, and this gel is inserted into the sinus cavity following surgery.
In ophthalmology, E 466 is used as a lubricating agent in artificial tears solutions for the treatment of dry eyes.

In veterinary medicine, E 466 is used in abdominal surgeries in large animals, particularly horses, to prevent the formation of bowel adhesions.

Research applications:
Insoluble E 466 (water-insoluble) can be used in the purification of proteins, particularly in the form of charged filtration membranes or as granules in cation-exchange resins for ion-exchange chromatography.
E 466 low solubility is a result of a lower DS value (the number of carboxymethyl groups per anhydroglucose unit in the cellulose chain) compared to soluble E 466.

Insoluble E 466 offers physical properties similar to insoluble cellulose, while the negatively charged carboxylate groups allow E 466 to bind to positively charged proteins.
Insoluble E 466 can also be chemically cross-linked to enhance the mechanical strength of E 466.

Moreover, E 466 has been used extensively to characterize enzyme activity from endoglucanases (part of the cellulase complex); E 466 is a highly specific substrate for endo-acting cellulases, as E 466 structure has been engineered to decrystallize cellulose and create amorphous sites that are ideal for endoglucanase action.
E 466 is desirable because the catalysis product (glucose) is easily measured using a reducing sugar assay, such as 3,5-dinitrosalicylic acid.

Using E 466 in enzyme assays is especially important in screening for cellulase enzymes that are needed for more efficient cellulosic ethanol conversion.
E 466 was misused in early work with cellulase enzymes, as many had associated whole cellulase activity with E 466 hydrolysis.
As the mechanism of cellulose depolymerization became better understood, E 466 became clear that exo-cellulases are dominant in the degradation of crystalline (e.g. Avicel) and not soluble (e.g. E 466) cellulose.

In food applications:
E 466 is used as a stabiliser, thickener, film former, suspending agent and extender.
Applications include ice cream, dressings, pies, sauces, and puddings.
E 466 is available in various viscosities depending on the function E 466 is to serve.

In non food applications:
E 466 is sold under a variety of trade names and is used as a thickener and emulsifier in various cosmetic products, and also as a treatment of constipation.
Like cellulose, E 466 is not digestible, not toxic, and not allergenic.
Some practitioners are using this for weight loss.

Treatment of constipation:
When eaten, methylcellulose is not absorbed by the intestines but passes through the digestive tract undisturbed.
E 466 attracts large amounts of water into the colon, producing a softer and bulkier stool.

E 466 is used to treat constipation, diverticulosis, hemorrhoids and irritable bowel syndrome.
E 466 should be taken with sufficient amounts of fluid to prevent dehydration.
Because E 466 absorbs water and potentially toxic materials and increases viscosity, E 466 can also be used to treat diarrhea.

Lubricant:
Methylcellulose is used as a variable viscosity personal lubricant; E 466 is the main ingredient in K-Y Jelly.

Artificial tears and saliva:
Solutions containing methylcellulose or similar cellulose derivatives are used as substitute for tears or saliva if the natural production of these fluids is disturbed.

Paper and textile sizing:
Methylcellulose is used as sizing in the production of papers and textiles.
E 466 protects the fibers from absorbing water or oil.

Special effects:
The slimy, gooey appearance of an appropriate preparation of methylcellulose with water, in addition to E 466 non-toxic, non-allergenic, and edible properties, makes E 466 popular for use in special effects for motion pictures and television wherever vile slimes must be simulated.
In the film Ghostbusters, for example, the gooey substance that supernatural entities used to “slime” the Ghostbusters was mostly a thick water solution of methylcellulose.

E 466 is also often used in the pornographic industry to simulate semen in large quantity, in order to shoot movies related to bukkake fetish.
E 466 is preferable to food-based fake semen (e.g., condensed milk) because this last solution can often cause problems, especially when the ingredient used contains sugar.
Sugar is thought to encourage yeast infection when E 466 is injected in the vagina.

Applications in Pharmaceutical Formulations or Technology:
E 466 (technically, Carboxymethylcelluloses) is a family of chemically modified cellulose derivatives containing the carboxymethyl ether group (-O-CH2-COO-) bound to some of the hydroxyl groups of the glucopyranose monomers that make up the cellulose backbone.
When E 466 is recovered and presented as the Sodium salt, the resulting polymer is what is known as E 466, and has the general chemical formula, [C6H7O2(OH)x(OCH2COONa)y]n.

E 466 was discovered shortly after Word War 1 and has been produced commercially since the early 1930s.
E 466 is produced by treating cellulose with an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution followed by monochloroacetic acid or E 466 sodium salt.

In a parallel reaction two by-products, sodium chloride and sodium glycolate, are produced.
Once these by-products are removed, high purity Sodium E 466 is obtained.

As a general rule, the obtained material has a slight excess of sodium hydroxide and has to be neutralised.
The neutralisation endpoint can affect the properties of E 466.
In the final step, E 466 is dried, milled to the desired particle size, and packaged.

Food and pharmaceutical grade E 466 is required by law to contain not less than 99.5% pure E 466 and a maximum of 0.5% of residual salts (sodium chloride and sodium glycolate).
The degree of substitution (DS) can vary between 0.2-1.5, although E 466 is generally in the range of 0.6-0.95.

The DS determines the behaviour of E 466 in water: Grades with DS >0.6 form colloidal solutions in water that are transparent and clear, i.e the higher the content of carboxymethyl groups, the higher the solubility and smoother the solutions obtained.
E 466 with a DS below 0.6 tends to be only partially soluble.

E 466 is available as a white to almost white, odourless, tasteless, granular powder.

Uses of E 466:
E 466 is used in drilling muds, detergents, resin emulsion paints, adhesives, printing inks, and textile sizes.
E 466 is also used as a protective colloid, a stabilizer for foods, and a pharmaceutical additive.

E 466 is used as a bulk laxative, emulsifier and thickener in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, and stabilizer for reagents.
E 466 is formerly registered in the US for use as an insecticide for ornamental and flowering plants.

E 466 is permitted for use as an inert ingredient in non-food pesticide products.
E 466 is used as an anticaking agent, drying agent, emulsifier, formulation aid, humectant, stabilizer or thickener, and texturizer in foods.

Introduction:
E 466 is used in a variety of applications ranging from food production to medical treatments.
E 466 is commonly used as a viscosity modifier or thickener, and to stabilize emulsions in various products, both food and non-food.

E 466 is used primarily because E 466 has high viscosity, is nontoxic, and is generally considered to be hypoallergenic, as the major source fiber is either softwood pulp or cotton linter.
Non-food products include products such as toothpaste, laxatives, diet pills, water-based paints, detergents, textile sizing, reusable heat packs, various paper products, filtration materials, synthetic membranes, wound healing applications, and also in leather crafting to help burnish edges.

Food science:
E 466 is used in food under the E number E466 or E469 (when E 466 is enzymatically hydrolyzed), as a viscosity modifier or thickener, and to stabilize emulsions in various products, including ice cream.
E 466 is also used extensively in gluten-free and reduced-fat food products.

E 466 is used to achieve tartrate or cold stability in wine, an innovation that may save megawatts of electricity used to chill wine in warm climates.
E 466 is more stable than metatartaric acid and is very effective in inhibiting tartrate precipitation.
E 466 is reported that KHT crystals, in presence of E 466, grow slower and change their morphology.

Their shape becomes flatter because they lose 2 of the 7 faces, changing their dimensions.
E 466 molecules, negatively charged at wine pH, interact with the electropositive surface of the crystals, where potassium ions are accumulated.
The slower growth of the crystals and the modification of their shape are caused by the competition between E 466 molecules and bitartrate ions for binding to the KHT crystals.

Specific culinary uses:
E 466 powder is widely used in the ice cream industry, to make ice creams without churning or extremely low temperatures, thereby eliminating the need for conventional churners or salt ice mixes.
E 466 is used in baking breads and cakes.
The use of E 466 gives the loaf an improved quality at a reduced cost, by reducing the need of fat.

E 466 is also used as an emulsifier in biscuits.
By dispersing fat uniformly in the dough, E 466 improves the release of the dough from the moulds and cutters, achieving well-shaped biscuits without any distorted edges.
E 466 can also help to reduce the amount of egg yolk or fat used in making the biscuits.

Use of E 466 in candy preparation ensures smooth dispersion in flavor oils, and improves texture and quality.
E 466 is used in chewing gums, margarines and peanut butter as an emulsifier.

Other uses:
In laundry detergents, E 466 is used as a soil suspension polymer designed to deposit onto cotton and other cellulosic fabrics, creating a negatively charged barrier to soils in the wash solution.
E 466 is also used as a thickening agent, for example, in the oil-drilling industry as an ingredient of drilling mud, where E 466acts as a viscosity modifier and water retention agent.

E 466 is sometimes used as an electrode binder in advanced battery applications (i.e. lithium ion batteries), especially with graphite anodes.
E 466's water solubility allows for less toxic and costly processing than with non-water-soluble binders, like the traditional polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), which requires toxic n-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) for processing.
E 466 is often used in conjunction with styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) for electrodes requiring extra flexibility, e.g. for use with silicon-containing anodes.

E 466 is also used in ice packs to form a eutectic mixture resulting in a lower freezing point, and therefore more cooling capacity than ice.

Aqueous solutions of E 466 have also been used to disperse carbon nanotubes, where the long E 466 molecules are thought to wrap around the nanotubes, allowing them to be dispersed in water.

In conservation-restoration, E 466is used as an adhesive or fixative (commercial name Walocel, Klucel).

Industrial Processes with risk of exposure:
Petroleum Production and Refining
Textiles (Fiber & Fabric Manufacturing)
Painting (Pigments, Binders, and Biocides)
Working with Glues and Adhesives
Farming (Pesticides)

Adverse reactions of E 466:
Effects on inflammation, microbiota-related metabolic syndrome, and colitis are a subject of research.
E 466 is suggested as a possible cause of inflammation of the gut, through alteration of the human gastrointestinal microbiota, and has been suggested as a triggering factor in inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease.

While thought to be uncommon, case reports of severe reactions to E 466 exist.
Skin testing is believed to be a useful diagnostic tool for this purpose.
E 466 was the active ingredient in an eye drop brand Ezricare Artificial Tears which was recalled due to potential bacterial contamination.

Preparation of E 466:
E 466 is synthesized by the alkali-catalyzed reaction of cellulose with chloroacetic acid.
The polar (organic acid) carboxyl groups render the cellulose soluble and chemically reactive.
Fabrics made of cellulose—e.g. cotton or viscose rayon—may also be converted into E 466.

Following the initial reaction, the resultant mixture produces approximately 60% E 466 and 40% salts (sodium chloride and sodium glycolate).
E 466 is the so-called technical E 466, which is used in detergents.

An additional purification process is used to remove salts to produce pure E 466, which is used for alimentary and pharmaceutical applications.
An intermediate "semi-purified" grade is also produced, typically used in paper applications such as the restoration of archival documents.

Structure and properties of E 466:
The functional properties of E 466 depend on the degree of substitution of the cellulose structure [i.e., how many of the hydroxyl groups have been converted to carboxymethylene(oxy) groups in the substitution reaction], as well as the chain length of the cellulose backbone structure and the degree of clustering of the carboxymethyl substituents.

Structure:
E 466 is typical ionic-type cellulose ether and the frequently used product is E 466 sodium salt, as well as ammonium and aluminum salts.
Sometimes, E 466 acids can be produced.

When degree of substitution (that is, the average value of hydroxyl groups reacted with the substitution of each anhydrous glucose monomer) is 1, E 466 molecular formula is [C6H7O2 (OH) 2OCH2COONa] n.
With drying at the temperature of 105℃ and constant weight, the content of sodium is 6.98-8.5%.

Appearance and Solubility:
The pure E 466 is white or milk white fibrous powder or particles, odorless and tasteless.
E 466is insoluble in organic solvents such as methanol, alcohol, diethyl ether, acetone, chloroform and benzene but soluble in water.
Degree of substitution is an important factor influencing water solubility and the viscosity of E 466 also has a great effect on the water solubility.

In general when the viscosity is within 25-50Pa•s and the degree of substitution is about 0.3, E 466shows alkaline solubility and while the degree of substitution is over 0.4, E 466shows water solubility.
With the rise of DS, the transparency of solution improves accordingly.
In addition, the replacement homogeneity also has an great effect on the solubility.

Hygroscopicity:
E 466 equilibrium water content will increase with the rise of air humidity but decrease with the rise of temperature.
At room temperature and average humidity of 80-85%, the equilibrium water content is more than 26% but moisture content in E 466s is lower than 10%, lower than the former.
As far as E 466 shape is concerned, even if the water content is about 15%, there seems no difference in appearance.

However, when the moisture content reaches above 20%, inter-particle mutual adhesion can be perceived and the higher the viscosity is, the more evident E 466will become.
For these polarized high-molecular compounds like E 466, the hygroscopic degree is not only affected by the relative humidity but also by the number of polarity.

The higher the degree os substitution is, that is, the larger the number of polarity, the stronger the hygroscopicity will be.
Moreover, crystallinity also affects E 466and the higher the crystallinity is, the smaller the hygroscopic will be.

Compatibility:
E 466 has good compatibility with other kinds of water-soluble glues, softeners and resin.
For example, E 466is compatible with animal glues, dimethoxy dimethylurea gel, Arabic gum, pectin, tragacanth gum, ethylene glycol, sorbitol, glycerol, invert sugar, soluble starch and sodium alginate.

E 466is also compatible with casein, E 466 of melamine- formaldehyde resin and ethylene glycol, urea formaldehyde ethylene glycol resin, methyl cellulose, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), phosphate nitrilotriacetic acid, and sodium silicate but the degree is slightly poorer.
1% E 466 solution is compatible with most inorganic salts.

Dissociation Constant:
In the giant polymer matrix of E 466, there are plenty of electrolyzing groups (carboxymethyl groups).
The acidity is similar to that of acetic acid and the dissociation constant is 5×10-5.
The dissociation strength has an considerable effect on the electrical properties of E 466.

Biochemical Properties:
Although E 466 solution is difficult to get rotten than natural gums, under certain conditions, some microbes enable E 466to get rotten, especially with cellulose and taka-amylase reactions, leading to the decrease of solution viscosity.
The higher the DS of E 466 is, the less E 466will be affected by enzymes and this is because the side chain linked with glucose residues prevents enzymolysis.

Since the enzyme action leads to the breakage of E 466 main chain and generates reducing sugar, in this way the degree of polymerization will decrease and the solution viscosity will accordingly decrease.
The digestive enzymes within human body can have no decomposition on E 466 and E 466 has no decomposition in acid or alkaline digestive juice.

The types of products this dye may be used in are food, drugs and cosmetics, which of course makes up FD&C.
As a cosmetic dye, E 129 is used to enhance the color of many makeup, hair care and oral healthcare products.
This dye is also used in some red tattoo inks and has been known to cause irritation when inserted under the skin.

While there are several red dyes used in makeup products, E 129 is one of the most common.
E 129 is frequently used to enhance the color of foundation, eye shadow, lipstick and other types of makeup.
E 129 has been deemed safe to use around the eyes and is sometimes also used in eye liner and mascara.
Since this dye is typically derived from petroleum, E 129 is not usually included in natural products or those designed for sensitive skin.
Non-comedogenic makeup, however, can contain this ingredient as it has not been found to clog pores.

E 129 is also used in various skin care, hair care and oral healthcare products.
Consumers can find this dye in many of their lotions, shampoos, toothpastes, mouthwashes and other products.
E 129 is not used to enhance the effectiveness of these products.
Instead, this dye is used to alter the color of the product and make it more attractive to consumers.
Since cosmetics do not necessarily have to be red to contain this dye, it is important to consult a product’s ingredients list to determine whether it contains this substance.

While E 129 is generally believed to be safe for cosmetic use, it has been known to cause irritation when applied to the skin.
People who are sensitive to petroleum should exercise caution when using makeup or other products that contain E 129.
If a user does experience a reaction, he or she should discontinue using the product and avoid cosmetics that contain E 129 in the future.

In addition to being used in makeup and other cosmetics, E 129 is also used in some tattoo inks.
Most commonly, this dye appears in red, pink and other similarly colored ink.
E 129 is not considered hypoallergenic, and some individuals might experience a negative reaction to the dye.

Summary:
Ingredient Name: Allura Red
Color: Red
Physical Form: Granules, Powder, Liquid

Introduction:
E 129 is used in food processing may be divided in two groups: (i) naturally occurring compounds or additives isolated from natural sources and (ii) synthetic chemicals that are widely applied in foods industry from many years ago.
Natural color additives contain lower tinctorial strength as compared to synthetic colors because of more sensitive to light, temperature, oxygen, pH, color uniformity, low microbiological contamination, and relatively low production costs.
Coloring used in food industry to improve the food appearance, flavor, taste, color, texture, nutritive value and conservation.
Hence, synthetic food dyes stand out as one of the essential additive class for food industry in the conquest of markets.

Synthetic dyes are classified into azo dyes, triphenylmethane dyes, xanthene dyes, indigotine dyes, and quinoline dyes.
Azo dyes contain azo group (-N = N-) as the chromophore in the molecular structure, which is largest group of color accounting more than half of global dyes production.
One of the mostly used synthetic dyes in food industry is Allura Red, which could be found in many commercial foodstuffs, for example soft drinks, candies, ice cream and bakery products.
E 129 is an electrochemically active with irreversible reaction.

Previously, several researches have been reported regarding Allura Red toxicity and carcinogenic effects.
E 129 has potential behavioral effects on humans and animals; especially increase hyperactivity in children.
Moreover, some studies have showed the presence of aromatic amine or amide functionalities in the chemical structures of the degradation products of Allura Red.
E 129 has absorbed to gastrointestinal and entered the bloodstream to associates with proteins during its transport and metabolism process.
The excess usages of Allura Red in food and beverage products must be controlled.

In many countries, the uses of several food dyes including Allura Red has controlled or banned due to it toxicity.
The lists of permitted synthetic dyes have different from each country, for examples, azorubine, quinoline yellow, and patent blue V are permitted in EU countries, but considered forbidden in Japan and USA. For the safety assessment, the Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) and EU Scientific Committee for Food (SCF) established an acceptable daily intake (ADI) of Allura Red is 0–7 mg/kg/bw/day.
Due to the concern of human health, several analytical and advanced methods are developed for analyzing and quantifying of Allura Red.
Thus, this review paper is emphasized the available of analytical and advanced methods for detection of Allura Red in food products, and also discussed on the ADI, toxicology and extraction methods.

Food Colorant: Allura Red AC (E 129)
Natural and synthetic dyes are classified into soluble colorants.
Natural colors are obtained from various food or natural materials, for example riboflavin (E 101), chlorophylls (E 140), carotenes (E 160a), betalain (E 162) or anthocyans (E 163).
Natural colors are not precise stable, so it could be characterized by their specific physiological activity.
Synthetic colors are originally manufactured from coal tar or purified oil products.

Synthetic food colors have high stability to light, oxygen, pH changes and relatively low cost as compared to natural color.
Synthetic food dyes are chemically synthesized which found wide compounds structures on their structural characteristics.
Azo dyes have found more than 3000 compounds in worldwide uses and accounted about 65% of the commercial dye in the market.

Based on EU, a system of E numbers has implemented in order to identify all food additives.
E number is composed of the letter E represented for Europe, followed by the INS three-digit number, for example Allura Red is E 129.

Allura Red has been approved by European Union (EU) Register and listed in Annex I of Directive 94/36/EC.
Allura Red most commonly used synonyms of Food Red No. 40 and Food, Drug and Cosmetics Red No. 40.
Allura Red consisted of disodium 2-hydroxy-1-(2-methoxy-5-methyl-4-sulphonato-phenylazo)naphthalene-6-sulphonate and subsidiary coloring agents, with sodium chloride and sodium sulfate as the principal uncolored components.
Allura Red manufactured by coupling diazotized 5-amino-4-methoxy-2-toluenesulphonic acid with 6-hydroxy-2-naphthalene sulphonic acid.
E 129 is dark red in color and water-soluble powder or granules, but slightly soluble in 50% ethanol.

The maximum absorption in water is 504 nm, at pH 7 (E1 cm1% = 540).
In order to replace Amaranth (E123), Allura Red AC was first time introduced in the US since 1980s and it had synthesized by the classical process of diazotization.
E 129 has permitted to be used as a food additive in food products.

However, E 129 is not acceptable for use in animal feed because of the genotoxic effects.
USA Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have approved the uses of Allura Red in cosmetics, drugs, and food.
E 129 can be used in some tattoo inks.
In US, Allura Red is commonly replacement used to Amaranth (Red 2) and Erythrosine (Red 3).

Extraction Methods of E 129:
Food colors first extracted from the food matrix and purified for the removal of the potential interfering coextractives for the analysis and quantitation.
Some samples pretreatment are often required including defatting of meat products, dilution of sugars and gums in confectionery products, and then can be proceed for extraction procedure.
Most extraction procedures are followed a common path involving in the release of desired analytes from their matrices, followed by removal of extraneous matter and a suitable extraction method.

The supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technology has advanced tremendously since its inception and is a good method in many food processing industries.
Past two decades, SFE has been well received as a clean and environmentally friendly “green” processing technique and in some cases, an alternative to organic solvent-based extraction.
The most recent advances of SFE applications in food science (Allura Red), natural products, by-product recovery, pharmaceutical and environmental sciences have been published in extensive reviews.
Supercritical fluid solvents are of interest in chemical processes both for their involvement in chemical reactions as well as their solvent effects that are influenced by pressure and temperature.

Solvent extraction known as liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) which has involved the separation of compounds based on their relative solubility with two different immiscible liquids (organic phase and water).
The extraction of Allura Red is most common solvents used as like as water, ethanol, methanol, isopropyl alcohol, ammoniacal ethanol, ethyl acetate, ammonia, cyclohexane and tetra-n-butyl ammonium phosphate.
Yoshioka and Ichihashi (2008) have used different solvents for the simultaneous extraction among forty food dyes in drinks and candies.
They mentioned that the mixture of ammonia and ethanol (1:1, v/v) solutions have showed good extraction efficiency after ultra-sonication and evaporation of the sample.

Similarly, Zou et al. (2013) have addressed the tri-mixtures of ethanol, ammonia and water (80:1:19, v/v/v), and found better extraction recoveries for seven dyes in animal feed and meat samples.
Harp et al. (2013) have analyzed seven certified food colors in forty-four food products by liquid chromatography method using the ammonium hydroxide and methanol as extraction solvents.
Khanavi et al. (2012) have established a green extraction procedure using non-organic solvents, which are ammonia (0.25%, v/v) and water for Allura Red extraction from food products and medicines.

Solid-phase extraction (SPE) known as absorption technique to separate food colorants by utilizing a variety of adsorption materials such as wool, powdered leather, cellulose, alumina, and polyamide powder.
SPE commonly used because of simple procedure, rapid and able to treat large volume of samples free from contaminants with high recoveries.
Recently, semi-micro adsorption cartridges containing reverse-phase bonded silica materials have widespread used.
Typical sorbent for SPE include C18, while amino-functionalized low degrees of cross-linking magnetic polymer (NH2-LDC-MP), polyamide, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and styrene-divinylbenzene polymer has good retention toward Allura Red.

Different organic solvents have used in the analysis of Allura Red resulting in difficulty for selection of an appropriate solvent.
The structure of analytical matrix and its components have played important role while selecting an appropriate solvent for extraction.
Usually several solvents such as methanol, acetic acid, ethanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, tetra-n-butyl ammonium phosphate and others are more appropriately extracted of Allura Red.

Tang et al. (2014) have used SPE for extraction among sixteen synthetic colorants in complex hotpot condiment with high oil content.
The combination of methanol, acetone (1:1, v/v) and 2 mol L-1 carbamide solution containing 5% of ammonia in methanol showed good extraction efficiency while purified by a GPC column.
Besides, Chen et al. (2014) have investigated the use of NH2-LDC-MP as a sorbent in SPE under magnetic field to enhance the extraction recoveries among seven synthetic food dyes by using water as an extraction solvent.

Enzymatic digestion of food samples are highly bound or associated with the food matrix.
The combinations of enzyme-substrates are widely used including papain (protein digestion), lipase (lipids), phospholipase (phospholipid), amyloglucosidase (starch), pectinase (pectin), and cellulase (cellulose).
It is one of most common method for extraction of Allura Red that included one-step extraction with membrane filter using water as diluents.
Other extraction methods such as dialysis, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) are eco-friendly methods that frequently applied in food samples.

Shen et al. (2014) have established new extraction method using two-phase solvent (methanol and acetone) and UAE that improved the extraction recovery of both hydrophilic and hydrophobic pigments for Allura Red extraction.
Sun et al. (2013) have developed MAE extraction method for isolation of 21 synthetic colorants including Allura Red in meat by using methanol-acetic acid (95:5, v/v) as a solvent.
In contrast, there are a few methods available using without extraction procedure before analyzing the level of Allura Red.

E 129 (ARED) is an azo dye allowed as a food additive in the European Union and other developed countries.
The kinetics of oxidation of ARED with Chloramine-T in HCl medium has been studied spectrophotometrically at 302K.
The reaction exhibited first-order dependence of rate on both [ARED] and [CAT], inverse fractional order dependence of rate on [HCl].
Solvent composition shows negative effect indicating the involvement of negative ion-dipolar molecule in the rate determining step.
Variation of ionic strength of the medium and addition of halide ions showed negligible effect.

Addition of p-toluenesulphonamide, the reduction product retards the rate.
Oxidation products were isolated and characterized and were identified as 1, 2-naphthaquinone and 4-methyl anisole which are often allergic to human beings.
The effect of temperature is studied at different temperatures and Activation parameters have been evaluated.
Plausible mechanism and related rate law have been deduced for the observed kinetics.

Analytical Techniques for Determination of E 129:
Food coloring is one of the food adulterants which chemicals substances that intentionally added to food in order to improve customer’s perceptions of food.
The presences of Allura Red in potentially interfering compounds are difficulty to identify by using analytical methods.
For Allura Red, several analytical methods have developed such as voltammetry, polarography, spectrophotometry, mass spectrometry, capillary electrophoresis (CE), ion chromatography, thin layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
High-performance liquid chromatography becomes the major analytical method for determination of synthetic coloring materials in foodstuffs.
The most widely used separation modes are ion exchange and reverse-phase.
Other method used for separation, qualitative and quantitative determination of synthetic food dyes based on high performance liquid chromatography.
The basis of separation has two phases; stationary phase and mobile phase.
Dyes have different adsorption affinity to stationary phase.
It has appeared from differences of their mass, structural space and presence of functional groups in each dye’s molecule.
A wide range of liquid chromatography based techniques have analyzed for the detection of azo dyes, most of them are coupled with UV-Vis, PDA or MS detectors.
The HPLC technique has reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) and ion-pair high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC-IP).

In RP-HPLC system, the mobile phase has stronger polarity such as tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, methanol and water, while stationary phase is slightly polar or non-polar.
Appropriate conditions are allowed for analyzing the most of food dyes. Ionized samples must have possibility to form neutral molecules.
The most important characteristics into consideration during selection of hydrophobic properties are tested and presence the molecules with acidic groups.
Hydrophobicity of azo dyes is the largest group as compare to other.

Ion pair reverse-phase chromatography (IP-RP-HPLC) consisted in adding hydrophobic ionic substance to the mobile phase.
It could be quaternary ammonium cation, alkilo- or arylsulfoniumanion.
As a result of the reaction between sample and eluent neutral ionic pairs are formed and separated chromatographically in the reversed phase system.
Another way is preparing of sample, which enables the conducting of analysis on ionic exchanger or modification of mobile phase that provides to obtain the ion-exchanger.

In contrast, HPLC combined with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) is very popular for qualitative and quantitative determination with excellent precision, accuracy and lower cost, which can be more practical and economical in detecting non-illicit additives such as food colorants.
Qi et al. (2015) developed an efficient, fast and sensitive method for determination of 11 synthetic dyes including Allura red, in flour and meat foodstuffs using HPLC coupled with DAD and MS/MS.
The color additives are extracted with ammonia-methanol for further purified with SPE procedure using Strata-AW column in order to reduce matrix interference.
The proposed method is intended for a comprehensive survey of color additives in foods.

HPLC-MS/MS method is used for further confirmation of the results.
Validation data showed good recoveries in the range of 75.2–113.8%, with relative standard deviations less than 15%.
The proposed method has proved more suitable for the routine monitoring of eleven synthetic color additives due to its sensitivity, fast and low cost. Li et al. (2015) developed HPLC-DAD combined with ESI-IT-TOF/MS in positive and negative ion modes for identification and quantification among 34 water-soluble synthetic dyes in foodstuff.
Under optimal condition, the averages LOD of dyes were found between 0.01 and 0.05 μg mL-1.

The recoveries and RSD range between 76.1–105.0% and 1.4–6.4%, respectively.
Karanikolopoulos et al. (2015) developed the protocol based on RP-HPLC/DAD for the analysis of Allura Red in complex food matrices presenting high protein and fat content.
The issue of high fat content matrices addressed; it was needed an additional defatting step in the procedure.
The proposed method showed high precision and accuracy of detection in other complex food matrices.

Other method developed by Kong et al. (2015) based on freeze method for deproteinization coupling with the chitosan purification process in protein-rich samples.
Chitosan used for the purification after deproteinization as compared with the traditional technique.
Under optimum conditions, the method showed good linearity between 0.6 and 10 mg kg-1, with LOD between 0.1 and 0.4 mg kg-1.

Bazregar et al. (2015) established a method based on the electro-kinetic migration of ionized compounds by the application of an electrical potential difference.
Efficient extraction technique is used with a sub-microliter organic solvent consumption termed as in-tube electro-membrane extraction (IEME).
The result showed high extraction yield recoveries and the consumption of the organic solvents are less.
IEME-HPLC-UV showed a good linearity in the range of 1.00–800 ng mL-1, with LOD of 0.3-1.0 ng mL-1.

Tsai et al. (2015) have simultaneously determined among 20 synthetic dyes including Allura Red by using LC-MS/MS method.
The linearity and recoveries are observed at the concentration range of 0.10–200 μg kg-1 and more than 90% for all dyes.
Chen et al. (2014) developed a sensitive method based on the use of magnetic dispersive solid-phase extraction (M-dSPE) procedure combine with ultra-fast liquid chromatography-tandem quadrupole mass spectrometry (UFLC-MS/MS).
The obtained results showed higher extraction capacity of NH2-LDC-MP with recoveries between 84.0 and 116.2%, with limit of quantification (LOQs) for the seven synthetic pigments are of 1.51 for wines and 5.0 μg L-1 for soft drinks.
The developed M-dSPE UFLC-MS/MS confirmed that the NH2-LDC-MP is a kind of high effective M-dSPE materials for the pigments analyses.

Jurcovan and Diacu (2014) developed a simple method for the simultaneous measurement of Allura Red and Ponceau 4R in soft drinks by employing water and acetonitrile as a mobile phase.
Bonan et al. (2013) proposed the simultaneous analysis of red and yellow dyes by using HPLC-DAD in solid food matrices and beverages.
A water-alcohol mixture, cleaned up on a polyamide SPE cartridge and eluted with basic methanol solution, extracts the food samples.

The method is successfully validated according to Regulation (2004/882/CE) and could be applied to a concentration range between 5 and 300 mg kg-1 (5–100 mg l-1 for drinks) depending on the dyes.
Tang et al. (2014) have determined among 16 synthetic colorants in hotpot condiment by HPLC.
Based on results, a good linear relationship between peak areas and the concentrations of the synthetic colorants are obtained with LOD of 1–3 μg kg-1.
The proposed method is more sensitive and reliable that can be used for simultaneously determined among eight lipid-soluble and eight water-soluble colorants in hotpot condiment.

Mass Spectrometry and Spectrophotometry:
Various spectrometry techniques are available for the analysis of Allura Red including the measurements at ultraviolet and visible wavelengths.
Spectrometry is suitable for quantitative analysis of food dyes in different food matrices.
Spectrometry frequently applied for determination of Allura Red because of high values of molar absorption.
Spectrometry shows low instrumentation cost and does not require any expert skill manpower.
The distinguishing features of the spectra obtained for single color is significantly affected by the adjustment of pH of the solution with acid or alkali; characterized by shifts in absorption wavelength maxima and intensities.

María et al. (2007) have used time flight mass spectrometry (TOF-MS) instruments that represent a valuable tool for screening of target and non-target compounds in food products.
Accurate mass measurements along with specific retention times can be detected highly reliable target species, avoiding isobaric interferences in complex samples.
Moreover, a mass spectrometry combine with an ESI (or APCI) source and an ion trap analyzer linked to a TOF mass analyzer (ESI/APCI-IT-TOF/MS) that able to provide multistage tandem spectra with accurate masses.
This feature makes IT-TOF/MS useful for identifying target dyes and non-target dyes in foodstuffs.
Holčapek et al. (2007) investigated various functional groups of synthetic dyes that could affect their fragmentation behavior in the sources of ESI and APCI.
Currently, there are interested in the fragmentation mechanism of synthetic food dyes using ESI-IT-TOF/MSn in positive and negative ion modes.

Spectrophotometric method is simple, direct, rapid and versatile.
Turak and Ozgur (2013) simultaneously determined Allura Red and Ponceau 4R in drinks with four derivative spectrophotometric methods as compared to the results with those of HPLC method.
Soylak et al. (2011) developed a simple method with appreciable precision and low analytical cost the spectrophotometric determination of Allura Red in water samples by sensitive SPE procedure extraction on a glass column containing MCI GEL CHP20P resin.
A new application of bulk liquid membrane (BLM) with second-order calibration based on the bilinear least squares/residual bilinearization (BLLS/RBL) algorithm as a novel method for simultaneous removal and quantification of Allura Red and Sunset Yellow which model compounds in soft drinks and food samples.

The proposed method was validated by comparison with a reference method based on HPLC-UV and found no significant differences between the reference values and the obtained values.
El-Sheikh and Al-Degs (2013) simultaneously quantified three common synthetic food color including Allura Red in powdered soft drinks by employing a combination of absorbance spectra-pH data matrices and multivariate processing of the generated second-order data.
They used PARAFAC and bilinear least squares/residual bilinearization BLLS/RBL that applied for deconvolution of trilinear data to get spectral and concentration profiles of the dyes as a function of pH.
The comparison of chemometric results with those obtained by standard chromatographic technique has proven that the former protocol is a reasonable accuracy with satisfied recoveries study.

Capillary Electrophoresis:
Capillary electrophoresis has been widely used for the analysis of Allura Red.
It is an electrophoretic method to perform in a capillary tube for analysis and efficient separation of both small and large molecules.
The separations of Allura Red are influenced by buffer composition, pH, and additives such as cyclodextrins.
CE analysis showed rapid and economic as compared to the conventional electrophoresis and chromatography.

Modern CE is driven by the production of low cost narrow-bore capillaries for gas chromatography (GC) and high sensitive on-line detection systems for HPLC.
Besides, CE has a wide range of separation modes which including capillary zone electrophoresis, micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC), and capillary isotachophoresis etc., to complete efficient separations using high voltage.
Thompson and Trenerry (1995) developed a rapid and economical method for determination of ten commonly used azo dyes including Allura Red in confectionary and cordial by MEKC.
Similarly, Huang et al. (2005) established a microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (MEEKC) method for the analysis of eight food colorants using a microemulsion solution.
Prado et al. (2006) analyzed eleven synthetic food dyes in alcoholic beverages without any sample pre-treatment using CE-UV/Vis with excellent result.

Thin-Layer Chromatography (TLC):
Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a simple, economic and most appropriate chromatographic technique for qualitative analysis of the mixtures of analytes.
TLC systems for the separations of food dyes are fairly widespread; however, it is gradually being superseded by HPLC.
Besides, one of the difficulties is facing an appropriate mobile phase and stationary phase, on which dyes are applied.
A few TLC methods for the analysis of synthetic azo dyes have reported by Soponar et al. (2008).
Kucharska and Grabka (2010) have reviewed various sample preparation techniques and chromatographic conditions for the analysis of synthetic dyes in different food samples by TLC and HPLC.
de Andrade et al. (2014) have analyzed synthetic food dyes in soft drinks using SPE technique and analytes eluted by a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and ammonium hydroxide as the mobile phase.

Advanced Techniques for Determination of E 129:
Electrochemical Sensors:
Electrochemical sensors have been widely applied for the analysis of Allura Red in foods due to fast response, low cost, simple operation procedure, required small amount and high sensitivity.
It is feasible to miniaturize instrument for on-site detection.
Recently, Yu et al. (2016) fabricated a sensitive and facile electrochemical sensor based on composite of poly(diallyldimethy- lammonium chloride) functionalized graphene with nickel nanoparticles on glassy carbon electrode (PDDA-Gr-Ni/GCE) to determine Allura Red.

PDDA-Gr-Ni/GCE showed excellent mechanical strength, large specific surface area and high thermal and electric conductivity.
The peak current of Allura Red exhibit remarkably increased on PDDA-Gr-Ni/GCE because of synergistic effect on the large surface area and improved electron transfer efficiency of the nanomaterial.
Under optimum conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) found of 8.0 nmol L-1.
Wang and Zhao (2015) developed an electrochemical sensor based on the modification of GCE with multi-walled carbon nanotubes in ionic liquid-graphene oxides (IL-GO-MWCNT/CGE).
Different concentration of Allura Red was detected in the ranges of 8.0 × 10-10 – 5.0 × 10-7 mol L-1, with LOD value of 5.0 × 10-10 mol L-1 (S/N = 3).

Rodríguez et al. (2015) studied an antimony film electrode prepared on-line and installed as part of a sequential injection system for determination of azo dyes in food samples.
The influence of several flow variables is evaluated using a central composite design.
The LOD was found of 0.3 μM with relative standard deviation (RSD) more than 5.0%.
Cheng et al. (2015) have prepared a series of porous carbon (PC) using CaCO3 nanoparticles as the hard template and starch as the carbon precursor to determine azo dyes including Allura Red.
The LOD was determined on the range of 1.4–1.7 μg L-1.

E 129 (ARAC) dye adsorption onto natural sawdust (NSD) and hexadecylpyridinium bromide-treated sawdust (MSD) was investigated in aqueous solution as a function of contact time, solution pH, particle size, adsorbent dosage, dye concentration, temperature, and ionic strength.
The adsorbents were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction crystallography.
The dye adsorption onto both adsorbents was confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy.
The maximum dye adsorption was found within 120 min at pH 2.0 for NSD and pH 3.0 for MSD, respectively, with a particle size of 0–75 μm and an adsorbent dosage of 0.07 g/50 mL ARAC dye solution (50 μmol/L).

The batch adsorption kinetic data were followed by the pseudo-second-order kinetic model rather than the pseudo-first-order and Elovich kinetic models.
Equilibrium adsorption isotherms were explained by the Langmuir isotherm model, and the maximum extent of adsorption was found to be 52.14 μmol/g for NSD and 151.88 μmol/g for MSD at 55 °C.
The values of activation energy (Ea) and thermodynamic parameters (ΔG⧧, ΔH⧧, ΔS⧧, ΔG°, ΔH° and ΔS°) proved that the ARAC dye adsorption onto both adsorbents NSD and MSD is a spontaneous-endothermic physisorption process.
ARAC (98–99%) was released from dye-loaded adsorbents in aqueous solution (pH ≥ 12) within 120 min.
The adsorbents NSD and MSD were reused for a second time without significant loss of their adsorption efficiency.

Studies on safety:
Allura Red has been heavily studied by food safety groups in North America and Europe, and remains in wide use.
The UK's Food Standards Agency commissioned a study of six food dyes (tartrazine, Allura red, Ponceau 4R, Quinoline Yellow, sunset yellow, carmoisine (dubbed the "Southampton 6")), and sodium benzoate (a preservative) on children in the general population, who consumed them in beverages.
The study found "a possible link between the consumption of these artificial colours and a sodium benzoate preservative and increased hyperactivity" in the children; the advisory committee to the FSA that evaluated the study also determined that because of study limitations, the results could not be extrapolated to the general population, and further testing was recommended.

The European Food Safety Authority, with a stronger emphasis on the precautionary principle, required labelling and temporarily reduced the acceptable daily intake (ADI) for the food colorings; the UK FSA called for voluntary withdrawal of the colorings by food manufacturers.
However, in 2009, the EFSA re-evaluated the data at hand and determined that "the available scientific evidence does not substantiate a link between the color additives and behavioral effects", and in 2014, after further review of the data, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) restored the prior ADI levels.
In 2015, the EFSA found that the exposure estimates did not exceed the ADI of 7 mg/kg per day in any population.

The US FDA did not make changes following the publication of the Southampton study, but following a citizen petition filed by the Center for Science in the Public Interest in 2008, requesting the FDA ban several food additives, the FDA commenced a review of the available evidence, and still made no changes.
E 129 was at one time banned in Denmark, Belgium, France, and Switzerland, and was also banned in Sweden until the country joined the European Union in 1994.

In the fields of health care products and medicine, people often use egg phospholipids.
Vegetarians can tell whether the Lecithin is of plants or animal origin in the ingredient list.
If the lecithin is origin from “Soybeans”, “Sunflower seeds” or “rapeseeds”, it is vegan.



WHAT IS E322 SOY LECITHIN?
Well, if the clue is in the name in terms of the soy, the other part of the name is rather misleading, at least for those who know a bit of Greek!
Lecithin gets its name from the ancient Greek word for egg yolk, lekythos; but thankfully for vegans, soya lecithin is not a strange combination of soy and eggs.

Lecithin was originally discovered by French chemist Maurice Gobley, who named a substance he extracted from egg yolk after the Greek word for egg yolk, “lekithos”.
Lecithin has been in commercial use for more than a century, but since the extraction process from egg yolk proved costly for certain applications lecithin is today not only extracted from egg (egg lecithin) but also from soybean (E322 Soy Lecithin) and other sources such as sunflowerseed, rapeseed and maize.

E492 Sorbitan Tristearate is an effective emulsifier to retard fat bloom in chocolate.

Fat used in chocolate, particularly cocoa butter, forms as a tightly packed β’ polymorph/crystal which is an unstable crystal but is vital for the functional and aesthetic quality of chocolate.
If chocolate is not tempered properly or is exposed to excessive heat, these β’ crystals convert to β crystals which are less tightly packed but are more stable.
These β crystals tend to migrate to the surface causing fat bloom to occur and also having a negative impact on the aesthetics of the chocolate.

E492 Sorbitan Tristearate’s structure mimics the β’ crystals and bonds with such fat crystals and retards their conversion to the less desirable β crystals.
