Title: [Genotoxic study of commercial dyes with tartrazine base in S. typhimurium his- and E. coli trp-]. Author: Pollastrini MT, Barea M, Salas J. Journal: Rev Sanid Hig Publica (Madr); 1990; 64(3-4):203-9. PubMed ID: 2131601. Abstract: We study the genotoxic character of 21 food dyes samples with tartrazine in different trade-marks. Two homologated assays "in vitro" of reverse mutation in S. typhimurium and E. coli are used, with metabolic activation. There is no evidence of mutagenic character in any sample.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
