The synthetic food dyes studied were rose bengal (RB), phroxine (PL), amaranth, erythrosine B (ET), allura red, new coccine, acid red (AR), tartrazine, sunset yellow FCF, brilliant blue FCF, and indigo carmine. First, data confirmed that these dyes were not substrates for CYP2A6, UGT1A6, and UGT2B7. ET inhibited UGT1A6 (glucuronidation of p-nitrophenol) and UGT2B7 (glucuronidation of androstero...

Dyes are one of prevalent types of chemicals used by human being today. Dyes are organic compounds which have complex aromatic molecular structure that make them toxic and harmful. When these dyes introduced with water due to textile dyeing and printing industrial waste water may cause problems to all living organism. In these dyes highly toxic metals are used as mordents so the removal of thes...

The effect of varying short-chain alkyl substitution of the indole nitrogens on the spectroscopic properties of cyanine dyes was examined. Molar absorptivities and fluorescence quantum yields were determined for a set of pentamethine dyes and a set of heptamethine dyes for which the substitution of the indole nitrogen was varied. For both sets of dyes, increasing alkyl chain length resulted in ...

PURPOSE To evaluate systematically the staining characteristics and safety of potential new dyes for intraocular surgery. METHODS Six dyes were included in the investigation: light green SF (LGSF) yellowish, E68, bromophenol blue (BPB), Chicago blue (CB), rhodamine 6G, rhodulinblau-basic 3 (RDB-B3). All dyes were dissolved and diluted in a balanced saline saline solution. The light-absorbing ...

The construction and design of a microscope coupled with a miniature UV-vis spectrometer is described. This was applied to the study of dyes linked to solid supports and displayed good correlation in spectral shape and lambda(max) values when compared to the dyes in solution, as well as showing a linear relationship between dye loading and UV-vis absorbance. The spectral profiles of these dyes ...

An infrared (IR) spectroscopic technique was used to determine the possible functional groups and chemical compounds present in commercially available ink-jet printing reactive dyes of four primary colours, i.e. Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. Although other instrumental analytical methods can help to determine the actual chemical composition of reactive dyes, the IR technique alone can still...

in the present work, we have investigated the sorption efficiency of the treated activated carbon from walnut shell(acw) towards direct red 81 (dr81) and direct blue 71 (db71) for the removal from aqueous solution. thesorption study of acw at the solid-liquid interface was investigated using kinetic, sorption isotherms, ph effectand amount of adsorbent. experimental data were analyzed by langmu...

A simple and rapid analytical method for the determination of trace levels of five sulphonated and azo sulphonated reactive dyes: Cibacron Reactive Blue 2 (C-Blue, trisulphonated dye), Cibacron Reactive Red 4 (C-Red, tetrasulphonated azo dye), Cibacron Reactive Yellow 2 (C-Yellow, trisulphonated azo dye), Levafix Brilliant Red E-4BA (L-Red, trisulphonated dye), and Levafix Brilliant Blue E-4BA ...

The analysis of inks and the paper to which they are applied is of great interest to a broad spectrum of science. From the historian and archaeologist to the forensic scientist, an understanding of ink-paper interactions is essential to the understanding of the ink and its subsequent changes upon application to paper. Determining chemical and other details of ink in a signature, for example, ca...
