A first-derivative spectrophotometric method was developed for quantitative determination of two synthetic organic dyes, Carmoisine and Patent Blue V, which are under governmental regulations all over the world because of their toxicity and carcinogenity. In this study, Carmoisine and Patent Blue V were simultaneously determined in their binary mixtures by first-derivative spectrophotometry. Th...

Synthetic food colors are important ingredients in the industry. These synthetic colorants azo dyes, majorly acidic nature such as Allura red and Tartrazine. They present sweets, carbonated drinks, meat products, candies to attract consumers. This review article is an attempt explain adverse effects of dyes their association with oral cavities cardiovascular disorders. (azo dyes) have staining ...

The excited-state energies of aza-boron-dipyrromethene (Aza-BODIPY) derivatives are investigated with Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory (TD-DFT), with twin goals. On the one hand, a pragmatic, yet efficient, computational protocol is defined in order to reach rapidly semi-quantitative estimates of the λ(max) of these challenging dyes. It turned out that a PCM-TD-BMK/6-311+G(2d,p)//PCM-PB...

Rapid industrialization and urbanization results in the discharge of large amounts of waste to the environment, which in turn creates more pollution (Senan and Abraham, 2004). Synthetic dyes are extensively used in textile dyeing, paper printing, color photography, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetics and other industries. During textile dyeing, the amount of dye lost in effluent is dependent upon t...

Novel asymmetric monomeric monomethine cyanine dyes 5a-d, which are analogues of the commercial dsDNA fluorescence binder thiazole orange (TO), have been synthesized. The synthesis was achieved by using a simple, efficient and environmetally benign synthetic procedure to obtain these cationic dyes in good to excellent yields. Interactions of the new derivatives of TO with dsDNA have been invest...

This article reports on a method to determine synthetic dyes in yogurts and milk drinks. Initially a method for extraction of artificial dyes was developed to pretreat samples in order to extract most of the artificial colorants. Then, the colorants were analyzed by HPLC-PAD using gradient elutions. The method was linear in the range of 0.5-25mgL(-1) colorants (0.9991<R(2)<0.9998), with LOD of ...

The applicability of Raman spectroscopy and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) to the analysis of synthetic dyes commonly found in ballpoint inks was investigated in a comparative study. Spectra of 10 dyes were obtained using a dispersive system (633 nm, 785 nm lasers) and a Fourier transform system (1064 nm laser) under different analytical conditions (e.g., powdered pigments, solutions,...

Decolorization of six synthetic dyes using three sources of fungal laccase with the origin of Aspergillus oryzae, Trametes versicolor, and Paraconiothyrium variabile was investigated. Among them, the enzyme from P. variabile was the most efficient which decolorized bromophenol blue (100%), commassie brilliant blue (91%), panseu-S (56%), Rimazol brilliant blue R (RBBR; 47%), Congo red (18.5%), a...
