	503. Carmines (formerly Cochineal, Carmine and Carminic acid) (WHO Food Additives Series 16)
		The colouring principle of carmines is the hydrated aluminium chelate of carminic acid, in which aluminium and carminic acid are thought to be present in the molar ratio 1:2 (Meloan et al., 1971).
		Carminic acid was not mutagenic for several strains of Salmonella typhimurium in the presence of liver microsomal preparations or enzymatic extracts of rat caecal microflora (Brown & Brown, 1976; Brown et al., 1977).
		The Committee allocated a temporary ADI of 0-2.5 mg/kg bw for ammonium carmine, or equivalent amounts of the calcium, potassium, or sodium salts (the lithium salt is not acceptable for food-additive use).

	Carminic acid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carminic acid is the colouring agent in carmine.
		The chemical structure of carminic acid consists of a core anthroquinone structure linked to a glucose sugar unit.
		Carminic acid was first synthesized by organic chemists in 1991.

	Overseal - Carminic Acid
		Carminic acid and carmine (the aluminium lake of carminic acid).
		Carminic Acid is water soluble and acid stable giving orange shades at low pH and becoming redder as the pH increases.
		Carmine, being the aluminium lake of carminic acid, is soluble in alkaline media and is very stable to heat, light and oxygen.

		Competitive radioallergosorbence with cochineal and carmine and with fractions of these substances separated on the basis of relative molecular mass led the authors to conclude that this patient was sensitized to an antigen or antigens with a relative molecular mass of 10-30 kDa (Quirce et al., 1993, 1994).
		The results of skin prick tests with the same brand of yoghurt and with carmine powder were positive, as was that of a test for the release of histamine from leukocytes, with a maximum of 18% release of histamine at a concentration of carmine of 0.1 mg /ml (Beaudouin et al., 1995).
		The results of skin prick tests with the popsicle and a carmine preparation used in the manufacture of the popsicle were positive in the patient and negative in her husband.

		The relative ratios of dcII, carminic acid, flavokermesic acid, and kermesic acid conform to the data in Wouters and Verhecken (1989a) and to the composition of the reference samples.
		In 2 samples, carminic acid was present together with purpurin; according to the composition of appropriate reference samples, this mixture represents a combination of cochineal with a vegetal dye from Relbunium.
		In 15 samples, carminic acid was found in combination with indigotin (identified in a separate experiment by reductive bleaching).

	Acid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An acid (often represented by the generic formula HA) is traditionally considered any chemical compound that when dissolved in water, gives a solution with a pH of less than 7.0.
		The strength of an acid may be understood by this definition by the stability of hydronium and the solvated conjugate base upon dissociation.
		Nitric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid are all strong acids, whereas nitrous acid, sulfurous acid and hypochlorous acid are all weak.

		This work reports on the effect of biotic factors on the concentration of carminic acid (CAC) in cochineal insects.
		CAC was positively affected by the density of cochineal insects around the insect, that was analyzed by plant age, and by the nutritional status of the plant, and was negatively affected by the age of the cladode.
		This knowledge may be used in designing cultural strategies to increase carminic acid accumulation in cochineal insects.
