ABSTRACT: The majority of natural colourants are of vegetable origin from plant sources –roots, berries, barks, leaves, wood and other organic sources such as fungi and lichens. In the medicinal and food products apart from active constituents there are several other ingredients present which are used for either ethical or technical reasons. Colouring agent is one of them, known as excipients. The discovery of man-made synthetic dye in the mid-19th century triggered a long decline in the large-scale market for natural dyes as practiced by the villagers and tribes. The continuous use of synthetic colours in textile and food industry has been found to be detrimental to human health, also leading to environmental degradation. Biocolours are extracted by the villagers and certain tribes from natural herbs, plants as leaves, fruits (rind or seeds), flowers (petals, stamens), bark or roots, minerals such as prussian blue, red ochre & ultramarine blue and are also of insect origin such as lac, cochineal and kermes.

It is only recently (the first artificial dye was invented in 1857) that the textile industry has turned to synthetic dyes. Today, many craftspeople are rediscovering the joy of achieving colour through the use of renewable, non-toxic, natural sources. Natural dyes are inviting and satisfying to use. Most are familiar substances that will spark creative ideas and widen your view of the world. Try experimenting. Colour can be coaxed from many different sources. Once the cloth or fibre is prepared for dyeing it will soak up the colour, yielding a range of results from deep jew- el-like tones to dusky heathers and pastels.

They are characterized by their content of dyes molecules. They stimulate interest because they are part of a sustainable development approach. There are several chemicals families of plant dye which are contained in more than 450 plants known around the world.

Tutorial: How to Dye Black with Natural
http://www.aurorasilk.com/ Tutorial: How To Dye Black with Natural Dyes by Cheryl Kolander. Excerpted from TrueFibers. Aurora Silk sells a full selection of natural dyes and mordants. For ideas on which dyes and which mordants to use, view our Natural Dye colour Chart. For more detailed dyeing recipes, read Brilliant Colours! by Cheryl Kolander. After recording the dry weight of your fiber, wet the fiber out in warm or hot water. STEP I: TANNIN 2 oz. tannic acid per pound of fiber (dry weight) OR: 4 oz. tara sawdust per pound of fiber, extracted twice OR: 3 oz Catechu (Cutch) extract per pound of fiber with optional 1/2 oz copper mordant 1. Dissolve tannic acid or catechu extract in hot water. 2. Heat the solution to approximately 200 F. 3. Remove from heat. 4. Enter the silk (or other fiber) that has been thoroughly wet out in warm to hot water. 5. Set to soak for at least 24 hrs, stirring occasionally. STEP II: IRON 1/2 to 1 oz Ferrous Sulphate per pound of fiber Use the lesser amount for fine silk yarn and soft wools. Use the greater amount for wild silk and other fibers. 1. Dissolve the iron in warm water. 2. Soak fiber in a mild soap solution about 15 minutes to neutralize the acid in the tannin (which couters the effect of the iron). This step is not necessary if you used Catechu for STEP I. 3. Add fiber to warm iron solution and soak for about 20 minutes. 4. Remove fiber from iron solution, wring excess solution from fiber, and hang to air 20 minutes to 1 hour.

36200 Yellow Wood, Old Fustic Recipe for Dyeing with Fustic
36200 Yellow Wood, Old Fustic C.I. Natural Yellow 11 synonym: dyer´s mulberry german: Gelbholz, Fustik, geschnitten french: fustik, bois jaune Old fustik, or yellow wood, is derived from the heartwood of dyer's mulberry, a large, tropical tree (Chlorophora tinctoria, or Maclura tinctoria) of the mulberry family, Moraceae. The trees grow in South and Middle America, and in the warmer regions of North America. They also grow in Western India and in the Antilles. The climate in South Europe is not tropical, but it is warm enough for the Mulberry tree. Dye makers have used its bright yellow heartwood to make an effective dye. Yellow wood extract is made by cooking the wood. This is reddish-yellow and after diluting orange-yellow. Three different kinds of extracts are available: liquid extract (pale yellow – reddish-yellow), solid extract (yellow-brown – olive colored) containing about 15% water which is sold as cake or with about 5 % water which is sold as granules. The dye produces yellows on wool mordanted (fixed) with alaun. Brighter colors are reached with tin. Acidified lead oxide gives orange-yellow hues, chromium and copper salts give olive-green hues. Iron gives dark olive-green and black hues. Although the colors are not very light fast, yellow wood used to be very important for the manufacture of khaki-colored textiles. However, all colors are very fast to soap and alkalies. Recipe for dyeing with Fustic according to Gill Dably Ingredients 25% Alum 6% Washing Soda 100% Fustic Mordanting Dissolve the alum and the washing soda in cold water.

The maps treat 172 taxa (species, subspecies, varieties, and hybrids, but not forms) based primarily on specimens in the major herbaria of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, with most data derived from the holdings of the New England Botanical Club Herbarium (NEBC). Brief synonymy (to account for names used in standard manuals and floras for the area and on herbarium specimens), habitat, chromosome information, and common names are also provided. KEY WORDS: flora, New England, atlas, distribution, Fabaceae This article is the eleventh in a series (Angelo & Boufford 1996, 1998, 2000, 2007, 2010, 2011a, 2011b, 2012a, 2012b, 2012c) that presents the distributions of the vascular flora of New England in the form of dot distribution maps at the county level (Figure 1). Seven more articles are planned. The atlas is posted on the internet at http://neatlas.org, where it will be updated as new information becomes available. This project encompasses all vascular plants (lycophytes, pteridophytes and spermatophytes) at the rank of species, subspecies, and variety growing independent of cultivation in the six New England states.

Made up mainly of limestone and sedimentary rocks, Sumba’s topography con - sists of numerous hills and a plateau covered with grassy savannah interspersed with valleys hollowed out by erosion where gallery forests grow. The climate is hot and arid, except during the rainy season that lasts from December to March. With fewer than 600,000 inhabitants, Sumba boasts one of the low - est population densities in Indonesia. The island is divided into two administrative districts, West and East Sumba; the east has greater ethnic, cultural, and linguistic unity than the western part. 2 The town of Waingapu is the administrative center of East Sumba; it is also its Fig. 1.

Understanding and Conserving the Past and Recreating Natural Dyes
Understanding and Conserving the Past and Recreating Natural Dyes for Today Recep Karadag1 and Emine Torgan2 1Marmara University, Laboratory of Natural Dyes, Faculty of Fine Arts, 34718 Kadikoy- Istanbul-Turkey. 2Turkish Cultural Foundation, Cultural Heritage Preservation and Natural Dyes Laboratory, 34775 Umraniye-Istanbul-Turkey. Abstract We aim to use the natural dyeing of textiles from the past as a basis of modern dye natural dyeing of textiles. The natural dyes and methods used in the historical textiles were determined. We adapt these to the recent natural dyes in modern textiles by using different analysis techniques. In this study, the metal thread, dyestuff and technical analysis of historical textiles by micro and nondestructive analysis methods were determined. Historical samples were provided from many museum collection. Optical microscopy for the technical analysis, CIEL*a*b* spectrophotometer/colorimeter for the color measurements, HPLC-PAD for the dyestuff analysis and SEM-EDX for the metal thread analysis were performed. According to the results of this analysis, the fabrics that are made in modern times have the same characteristics as the fabrics analyzed due to the use of the same natural dyes. Keywords: Historical textiles, reproduction, natural dyes, dyestuff analysis, elemental analysis, color measurement, technical analysis. 1. INTRODUCTION Identification of an art object material of cultural heritage had received significant attention, because of its importance for the development of appropriate restoration and conservation strategies. Natural dyes have advantages since their production implies renewable resources causing minimum environmental pollution and has a low risk factor in relation to human health. Some of natural dyes are used by pharmaceutical industry as a basis for drug products and by the food industry [1].
