4 Test method
GB 15961-1995
Unless otherwise specified, the reagents used in the test were of analytical grade, water was distilled water or water of corresponding purity, and the solution was an aqueous solution. 4.1 Identification test
4.1.1 When the red pigment of Monascus is scanned under visible light, three absorption peaks are shown at 390, 420 and 505 nm, or two absorption peaks are shown at 420 and 505 nm.
4.1.2 When the red pigment of Monascus is developed on a silica gel G plate, using n-hexane:ethyl acetate (91) as the developing agent, a yellow spot (Rt=.88) and a spot that is fluorescent under ultraviolet light (R=0.5) appear. When using ethyl acetate as the developing agent, an orange-red spot (R=0.2) appears. When using methanol:water (8:2) as the developing agent, a red spot (Rt=0.98) appears. 4.2 Color value
4.2.1 Reagents and solutions
Ethanol (GB679): 70% solution.
4.2.2 Test method
Weigh 0.1g of sample (accurate to 0.001g), dissolve alcohol-soluble samples in 70% ethanol solution, or dissolve water-soluble samples in water, dilute to 1000mL, and shake well. Place this solution in a 1cm colorimetric cup, and use a spectrophotometer at 505nm, with 70% ethanol solution or water as a blank control, to measure its absorbance.

5 Inspection rules
5.1 Each batch of products shall be inspected by the quality inspection department of the manufacturer. The manufacturer shall ensure that all products leaving the factory meet the requirements of this standard, and each batch of products leaving the factory shall be accompanied by a quality certificate. 5.2 This product is a batch of products with uniform quality after final mixing. 5.3 The factory inspection item is color price. Type inspection items include ash, arsenic, lead, total bacterial count, and coliform group. During normal production, it is conducted once every three months.
GB15961—1995
5.4 Take samples from one-tenth of the total number of packages in each batch, and take out no less than 50 samples from the center of each barrel. After mixing the samples, take 40g and put them in two clean, dry ground-mouth glass bottles, seal them, one bottle for analysis, and one bottle for future reference, and mark the production date, product name and batch number on the bottle.
5.5 If one of the indicators in the inspection does not meet the requirements of this standard, samples should be taken from twice the amount of packaging for re-inspection. If even only one item of the re-inspection result does not meet the requirements of this standard, the entire batch of products will be judged as unqualified products. 5.6 If the supply and demand parties have objections to the product quality, arbitration shall be conducted by the statutory arbitration unit. 6 Marking, packaging, transportation, storage
6.1 The packaging should be firmly marked with the words "food additives", and the manufacturer's name, address, trademark, product name, production date, batch number, net weight, shelf life, product standard number, production license number should be indicated, and there should be a mark that it cannot be inverted. 6.2 Paste products are packaged in edible polyethylene plastic barrels and sealed with lids. Each barrel is 1kg, 10kg, 25kg. Powdered products are packaged in aluminum foil bags or brown glass bottles, and packaged in cartons outside, 300g per bottle. The weight error of each package is 5%. 6.3 This product should be protected from rain, moisture and sunlight during transportation, and must not be mixed with other harmful items for shipment. 6.4 This product should be sealed and placed in a ventilated, cool and dry place, strictly prevent light and heat, and it is forbidden to store it together with toxic items. 6.5 The shelf life of this product is one year.
