Tartrazine Food Colour Tartrazine is synthetic lemon yellow AZO dye that finds use as food coloring agent. It is derived from petroleum and is water soluble with maximum absorbance in aqueous solution. It finds use in many of the products including processed commercial foods having artificial green or yellow color, desserts, confectionery, cotton candy, cake mixes, pastries. Other than this, it is also used in beverages like soft drinks; snacks like flavored corn chips; condiments and spreads like jam & jelly as well as in other processed foods like cereal, noodles and others.

Received 22 September, 2020; Accepted 27 October, 2020 Food additives Azo dyes are synthetic compounds added to foods to impart color and improve their properties. Some azo dyes have been banned as food additives due to toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic side eﬀects. Long exposure to foods containing azo dye leads to chronic toxicity. Some microorganisms are capable to degrade these dyes and convert them to aromatic amines. In human body, microbiota can play a vital role in biodegradation of azo dyes by producing azo reductase. Aromatic amines are toxic, water-soluble and well absorbed via human intestine. In the current study, the role of microorganisms in biodegradation of six dyes related to azo group was discussed. These dyes are: Tartrazine E102, Sunset Yellow E110, Ponceau E124, Azorubine E122, Amaranth E123, and Allura Red E129 which are classified as the most harmful food additive dyes. Key word: Food additive, azo dyes, microorganisms, azo reductase, aromatic amines.

Received 25 October,2017; Accepted 15 January, 2018 Recently, progressive use of synthetic food additives increase the attention paid on their benefit and toxicity in food, especially for the young. One of these additives is artificial azo dyes tartrazine. This study aimed to provide an outline of the existing evidence on the beneficial and side effect of food additive with special reference to tartrazine on different organ health. The methods include updated search for the relevant databases. The studies included a description of the types of food additives and products containing tartrazine and focused on the effect of tartrazine on liver, kidney function, lipid proﬁle, oxidative stress biomarkers, nervous system, hyperactivity, behavior, cancer, reproductive and developmental toxicity and some bioelement levels of tartrazine. Several studies were identified and some investigated advantage and disadvantage of tartrazine. Summary of the study provides potentially harmful effects of tartrazine on liver, renal function, lipid profiles, behavior, carcinogenicity and forthcoming research recommendation are outlined. This review gives a broad evaluation of the safety and various toxicity effects of tartrazine.

J Food Nutr 3: 1-5. Abstract The effect of tartrazine onAllium cepa L. at concentrations of 0.1 , 1, 3 and 5 ng/ml-1 were studied. Analysis focused on root growth, frequency of mitosis in a meristematic zone, and chromosomal aberrations. It was observed that tartrazine reduces root growth and the frequency of mitotic cells in meristematic zones, and increases the frequency of aberrant cells. The intensity of the effects is a function of tartrazine concentration. Keywords: Chromosomal aberrations; Tartrazine; Proliferating activity; Root growth Introduction In the last decade, this dye has caused controversy as Dyes are a class of additives without nutritional val- to its toxic effects, and its use was prohibited in some coun- ue which are added to foods with the objective of providing tries such as the United States, Japan, Australia and Germany, color thus making the product more attractive and increasing which showed induction of chromosomal and other genotoxic its consumer acceptability.

Analysis of Dyes in Cosmetics: Challenges and Recent Developments

Among thousands of substances used to colour, synthetic dyes are the most widespread in the industry. Their potential secondary effects on human health and different regulatory requirements for their use between the main world markets make analytical control necessary to guarantee the safety of a cosmetic product. However, methodologies for the determination of dyes in cosmetics are scarce with respect to those reported for other cosmetic ingredients such as preservatives or ultraviolet UV ﬁlters. In addition, most of the existing methods just consider a part of the total of dyes regulated. On the other hand, many methods have been developed for matrices different than cosmetics such as foodstuff, beverages or wastewater. The current paper reviews the recent developments in analytical methodologies for the control of synthetic dyes in cosmetics proposed in the international scientiﬁc literature in the last 10 years (2008–2018). A trend towards the use of miniaturized extraction techniques is evidenced. Due to the hydrophilic nature of dyes, liquid chromatography is the most usual choice in combination with absorbance detectors and, more recently, with mass spectrometry.

For this reason, in the present work, the biological effects of six worldwide used food colorings (Riboflavin, Tartrazine, Carminic Acid, Erythrosine, Indigotine, and Brilliant Blue FCF) were analyzed using two model systems. (2) Methods: In vivo toxicity, antitoxicity, and longevity assays using the model organism Drosophila melanogaster and in vitro cytotoxicity, DNA fragmentation, and methylation status assays using HL-60 tumor human cell line were carried out. (3) Results: Our in vivo results showed safe effects in Drosophila for all the food coloring treatments, non-significant protective potential against an oxidative toxin, and different effects on the lifespan of flies. The in vitro results in HL-60 cells, showed that the tested food colorings increased tumor cell growth but did not induce any DNA damage or modifications in the DNA methylation status at their acceptable daily intake (ADI) concentrations. (4) Conclusions: From the in vivo and in vitro studies, these results would support the idea that a high chronic intake of food colorings throughout the entire life is not advisable.

Edible Colors: Beer's Law and Food Dyes1
Experiment 37A Spec20 FV 9/30/16 EDIBLE COLORS: BEER’S LAW AND FOOD DYES1 MATERIALS: test tubes 13x100, 16x125; volumetric flasks: 500 mL, 50 mL(2), 25 mL(2); pipets: 10 mL(2), 5 mL; beakers: 100 mL(2); plastic buret funnel; glass stirring rod; plastic droppers; Spectronic 20 and Spectronic 200 spectrometers; centrifuge; FD&C Yellow Dye #5; POWERade®. PURPOSE: The purpose of this experiment is to prepare a series of solutions of a pure compound, FD&C Yellow Dye #5, and to use those solutions to create a calibration curve. With the calibration curve the students may analyze commercial beverage samples for dye content. This lab is designed to introduce students to absorption spectroscopy and Beer’s Law, as well as the preparation of standard solutions and generation of a standard curve. LEARNING OBJECTIVES: By the end of this experiment, the student should be able to demonstrate these proficiencies: 1. Identify and use the following equipment: Spectronic 200 spectrometer, centrifuge and volumetric glassware. 2. Prepare solutions of known concentration by mass and by dilution methods. 3. Understand the relationship between the colors or wavelengths of a solution and the colors or wavelengths absorbed or transmitted by the solution. 4. Generate a calibration curve for absorption spectroscopy. 5. Create graphs and use them to determine the concentration of an unknown solute. PRE-LAB: Complete the Pre-lab questions on p. E37A-8 before lab. DISCUSSION: Color is an important property of foods that adds to our enjoyment of eating. Nature teaches us early on to expect certain colors in certain foods, and our future acceptance of foods is highly dependent on meeting these expectations.
