Appendix A to Part 74--The Procedure for Determining Ether Soluble
Material in D&C Red Nos. 6 and 7
Authority: 21 U.S.C. 321, 341, 342, 343, 348, 351, 352, 355, 361,
362, 371, 379e.
Source: 42 FR 15654, Mar. 22, 1977, unless otherwise noted.
(a) Identity. (1) The color additive FD&C Blue No. 1 is principally
the disodium salt of ethyl [4-[p-[ethyl (m-sulfobenzyl) amino]-[alpha]-
(o-sulfophenyl) benzylidene] - 2,5 -cyclohexadien - 1 - ylidene] (m-
sulfobenzyl) ammonium hydroxide inner salt with smaller amounts of the
isomeric disodium salts of ethyl [4-[p-[ethyl(p-sulfobenzyl) amino]-
[alpha]-(o-sulfophenyl) benzylidene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-ylidene] (p-
sulfobenzyl) ammonium hydroxide inner salt and ethyl [4-[p-[ethyl (o-
sulfobenzyl) amino] - [alpha] - (o -sulfophenyl) benzylidene]-2,5-
cyclohexadien-1-ylidene] (o-sulfobenzyl) ammonium hydroxide inner salt.
(2) Color additive mixtures for food use (including dietary
supplements) made with FD&C Blue No. 1 may contain only those diluents
that are suitable and that are listed in part 73 of this chapter as safe
for use in color additive mixtures for coloring foods.
[[Page 387]]
(b) Specifications. FD&C Blue No. 1 shall conform to the following
specifications and shall be free from impurities other than those named
to the extent that such other impurities may be avoided by current good
manufacturing practice:
Sum of volatile matter (at 135 [deg] C) and chlorides and sulfates
(calculated as sodium salts), not more than 15.0 percent.
Water-insoluble matter, not more than 0.2 percent.
Leuco base, not more than 5 percent.
Sum of o-, m-, and p-sulfobenzaldehydes, not more than 1.5 percent.
N-Ethyl,N-(m-sulfobenzyl)sulfanilic acid, not more than 0.3 percent.
Subsidiary colors, not more than 6.0 percent.
Chromium (as Cr), not more than 50 parts per million.
Manganese (as Mn), not more than 100 parts per million.
Arsenic (as As), not more than 3 parts per million.
Lead (as Pb), not more than 10 parts per million.
Total color, not less than 85.0 percent.
(c) Uses and restrictions. FD&C Blue No. 1 may be safely used for
coloring foods (including dietary supplements) generally in amounts
consistent with good manufacturing practice except that it may not be
used to color foods for which standards of identity have been
promulgated under section 401 of the act unless added color is
authorized by such standards.
(d) Labeling. The label of the color additive and any mixtures
prepared therefrom intended solely or in part for coloring purposes
shall conform to the requirements of Sec. 70.25 of this chapter.
(e) Certification. All batches of FD&C Blue No. 1 shall be certified
in accordance with regulations in part 80 of this chapter.
