• Brand: TRC
• Description: Applications As a dye for wool and silks; as colorant in food, drugs, and cosmetics. In biochemistry as an adsorption-elution indicator for chloride estimations. Tartrazine (otherwise known as E number E102, C.I. 19140, or FD&C Yellow 5) is a synthetic lemon yellow azo dye used as a food coloring. Tartrazine appears to cause the most allergic and intolerance reactions of all the azo dyes, particularly among asthmatics and those with an aspirin intolerance. Dyes and metabolites, Environmental Testing.A recent report has shown that Tartrazine may be useful in 3D bio-printing of organ-like architectures.References Rowe, K.S., et al.: J.
