The food colorings are food additives used to give coloring to food and there are chemically synthesized ones and natural ones. Among those food colorings, there are ones for which evaluation of the effect to health is performed and also the ones which are approved by Food Sanitation Law specifying the standard of components and usage.

This time some food colorings in powder juice were analyzed using Ultra High-performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC) with a PDA detector, which enables ultra high-speed data sampling; up to 100 spectra/sec data acquisition.
