在国家食品中合成着色剂的测定标准(GB/T 5009.35-2003)中介绍了胭脂红等其他人工合成色素的3种测定方法，如下所示：
1.高效液相色谱法
利用高效液相色谱法检测胭脂红的原理是，用聚酰胺吸附法或液-液分配法提取，制成水溶液，注入高效液相色谱仪，经反相色谱分离，根据保留时间定性和与峰面积比较进行胭脂红的定量。
2.薄层色谱法
利用薄层色谱法检测胭脂红的原理是，水溶性酸性合成着色剂在酸性条件下被聚酰胺吸附，而在碱性条件下解吸附，再用纸色谱法或薄层色谱法进行分离后，与标准比较定性、定量。
3.示波极谱法
利用示波极谱法检测胭脂红的原理是，食品中的合成着色剂，在特定的缓冲溶液中，在滴汞电极上可产生敏感的极谱波，波高于着色剂的浓度成正比，当食品中存在一种或两种以上互不影响测定的着色剂时，可用此方法进行定性定量分析[14] 。
4.聂晶等也研究了合成色素胭脂红、柠檬黄、苋菜红、赤藓红的快速检测方法微柱法，微柱法检测合成色素的原理为，根据水溶性酸性合成色素在酸性条件下呗聚酰胺媳妇，在碱性条件下被解吸的特性，利用被分离物质在吸附剂与展开剂之间分配系数不同，达到分离目的[15] 。
FreeMarker template error:
The following has evaluated to null or missing:
==> zxzx.logo [in template "zixun/mip_baoguang_xiangxi.ftl" at line 232, column 30]
Tip: If the failing expression is known to be legally null/missing, either specify a default value with myOptionalVar!myDefault, or use <#if myOptionalVar??>when-present<#else>when-missing. (These only cover the last step of the expression; to cover the whole expression, use parenthessis: (myOptionVar.foo)!myDefault, (myOptionVar.foo)??
