Prolonged use of the food dye tartrazine (FD&C yellow n° 5) and its effects on the gastric mucosa of Wistar rats

Abstract: Tartrazine is one of the most widely used artificial foods, drugs and cosmetic dyes. It is a nitrous derivative and is known to cause allergic reactions such as asthma and urticaria, as well as having been the focus of studies on mutagenesis and carcinogenesis due to its transformation into aromatic amine sulfanilic acid after being metabolized by the gastrointestinal microflora. 45 male Wistar rats were assigned to a control group (A) or a treatment one (B). The treatment group received 7.5 mg.kg -1.day -1 of… Show more

“…Nevertheless, only a few studies have discussed the application of natural antioxidants, like curcuminoids and carotenoids, on this product (Kumar et al, 2016;Rizk et al, 2014;Sun-Waterhouse et al, 2013). The use of these natural coumpounds in ice creams would be advantageous due to two reasons: (i) the possible benefits to the health due to their antioxidant characteristics (Ratnam et al, 2006;Fraser & Bramley, 2004); (ii) the possibility of replacement of artificial dyes, which are a recognized cause of some adverse reactions in the consumers (Moutinho et al, 2007).…”

“…Também novas substâncias podem ser formadas durante a cocção ou através do processo de conservação de alimentos a partir do emprego de técnicas como a defumação e a salmoura. A capacidade que essas substâncias apresentam de induzir danos celulares e mutação no DNA podem ser minimizadas pelo sistema de defesa natural, tanto quanto por um eficiente sistema de desintoxicação celular e reparação do DNA produzidos pelos organismos animal e humano, em condições favoráveis 2 .…”

“…Não ocorreram alterações carcinogênicas em nenhuma das regiões gástricas com a dose e o tempo utilizados (7,5mg de tartrazina/kg/dia durante dez meses), respectivamente. Como medida de segurança, os autores sugerem outros estudos modificando-se a dose e tempo de exposição ao corante tartrazina, de forma a permitir a observação dos efeitos associados a outros carcinógenos 2 .…”
