Popis: | A competitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for carminic acid was investigated. Monoclonal anti-carminic acid antibody was obtained from A/J mice immunized with carminic acid-human immunoglobulin G (IgG) conjugate. Carminic acid was extracted with distilled water from beverage, jelly, candy, pasta sauce, yogurt, or ice cream samples. Ham or fish paste samples were digested with pro-nase, then carminic acid was extracted from samples with sodium hydroxide solution. The extract was diluted more than 10-fold with 1% gelatin in borate buffer solution. Microtiter plates were coated with carminic acid-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugate or just BSA. Goat anti-mouse lgG(H+L)-peroxidase complex was used as a second antibody, and 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine was used as a substrate for the peroxidase. The working range for quantitative analysis was 0.3–10 ng/mL, and the detection limit was 0.2 μg/g original sample. Recoveries of carminic acid by this assay were >95% for milk beverage and jelly, and >85% for yogurt and fish paste. Carminic acid was detected in 7 of 26 red-colored commercial food products and ranged from 3.5 to 356 μg/g. This EIA system also responded to the structural analogue of carminic acid, laccaic acid. |
