Binding parameters of some edible dyes with bovine serum albumin were determined at pH 7.4 buffer solution. The edible dyes used were fast green, brilliant blue FCF, indigo carmine and allura red AC, and the final concentrations of each dyes were $3{\sim}9{\times}10^{-6}M$, $6{\times}10^{-6}M$, $3{\times}10^{-5}M$ and $3{\times}10^{-5}M$, respectively. The final concentrations of bovine serum albumin were $1{\sim}7{\times}10^{-5}M$. The values of binding free energy between edible dye and protein were ranged from -6,024 to -6,800 cal/mole.

Uv/ZnO를 이용한 타르색소의 광촉매 분해에 대한 실험적 검토로부터 전 실험범위에서 tartrazine의 분해효과가 brilliant blue FCF보다 높았고. 두 색소 모두 ZnO의 투입량이 증가할수록 분해도가 증가하였으며, $KBrO_3$보다 (${(NH_4)}_2S_2O_{8}$의 분해촉진 효과가 더 컸으나 pH의 영향은 그다지 크지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

This study was carried out to propose a simple method for the extraction of seven tar dyes such as tartrazine, sunset yellow FCF, amaranth, erythrosine, allura red, brilliant blue FCF and indigo carmine using aminopropyl amine cartridge and to determine the content of the dyes in candies, soft drinks, ice bars and okchuns produced in Korea. The tar dyes were simultaneously analyzed by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). The recovery rates of the dyes ranged from 65.8% to 99.6%. The contents of the dyes in candies, soft drinks, ice bars and octhuns were N.D.∼50.1 mg/kg, N.D.∼49.9 mg/kg, N.D.∼56.0 mg/kg and N.D.∼867.3 mg/kg, respectively. The types of the dyes used most frequently for candies, soft drinks and ice bars were tartrazine, brilliant blue and amaranth, respectively. Of the samples, tartrazine was used frequently, and indigo carmine was not used at all.

This survey was conducted to develop an appropriate management for safety of children snacks. In this study, monitorings of food additives such as nine kinds of tar colors (tartrazine, sunset yellow FCF, brilliant blue FCF, indigo carmine, new coccine, amaranth, erythrosine, allura red and fast green FCF) which are sold at stationary store around the school, were performed. Eighty two samples (3 snacks, 71 candies, 4 chocolates and 4 beverages) were analyzed for tar colors. Results of risk assessment for tar colors were expressed as EDI (Estimated Daily Intake) comparing with ADI (Acceptable Daily Intake). The ratio of high risk group for tar color intake (95th) were 0-3.56%. The consumptions of tar colors from domestic and imported products for nine kinds of tar colors in candies were not significantly different. The results of this study indicated that each ED! of nine kinds of tar colors sold at stationary store around the school is much lower than each ADI in general. Consequently, the children snacks are thought to be safe for consumption.

This Study has been carried out to develop a method of analysis of 8 permitted synthetic food colors [including Brilliant Blue FCF(B1), Indigocarmine (B2), Fast green FCF(G3), Amaranth (R2), Erythrosine (R3), Allura red (R40), Tartrazine (Y4), Sunset Yellow FCF (Y5)] in Korean foods by HPLC. After adjusting to 0.5% HCl, each of the food colors extracted was eluted by Sep-pak $C_{18}$ cartridge. Eluates were then determined by high performance liquid chromatograph with a UV-VIS detector. Recoveries of the 8 synthetic food colors were found to be 81.2-98.0% for soft drinks, 80.6-96.1% for candy, 79.8-96.3% for chewing gum, 76.5-91.7% for cereals, 79.9-93.8% for ice cream and 78.6-94.7% for jelly, respectively. The detection limits were $0.05-0.1{\mu}g/g$.

A simple, rapid, efficient method is for extraction of 13 synthetic water-soluble food colours (Tartrazine, Amarnth, Indigo carmine, New coccine, Sunset yellow FCF, Allura red AC, Eosine, Fast Green FCF, Brilliant Blue FCF, Erythrosine, Acid red, phloxine, Rose Bengal) by polyamide resin and for their quantitative by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Colours (coal-tar dyes) were extracted with polyamide resin and then determinated by HPLC. The HPLC conditions using a reverse phase partition type column $(Nova-pak\;C_{18})$, photodiode array (PDA) detector and 1% Ammonium acetate / 60% acetonitrile in water as eluent, were acceptable for various kinds of colorants. By the use of the proposed method, a survey of coal-tar dyes was carried out on 20 samples and that were detected $4.76{\sim}133.47\;ppm$.

In Korean, nine tar colors are permitted in foods. This study assessed these compounds in the favorite food items of children found near elementary schools. A total of 439 items categorized under six food types were included in the analysis. The most frequently detected tar colors were tartrazine (Y4), Brilliant Blue FCF (Y5), Allura Red, and Sunset Yellow FCF, respectively. One or a mixture of two tar colors were commonly found in products such as gums, ice bars, soft drinks, and cereals. However, most often, combinations of two or three tar colors were detected. The levels of tar colors in candies, chocolates, gums, ice bars, cereals, and soft drinks were 0.11-1169.58 mg/kg, 0.73-468.02 mg/kg, 0.10-602.46 mg/kg, 0.25-162.32 mg/kg, 0.11-753.68 mg/kg, and 0.21-69.45 mg/kg, respectively. Tar color levels were higher in chocolates and gums than in soft drinks and ice bars. And Y4 and Y5 were detected at the highest levels. For ages 7-12, the total estimated daily intake (${\sum}EDI$) of each tar color ranged from 0.004 to 1.017 mg/day/person. These values were 0.02-5.98% of the FAO/WHO's acceptable daily intake (ADI).
