Abstract
Subject of research. One of the most important and difficult tasks is to provide the world's population with food. As one of the most important environmental factors, nutrition from birth to the last day of a person's life affects his body. Purpose. Analyze the data of literature sources, which are devoted to scientific research on the use of synthetic food dye tartrazine (E102) in the food industry. Nutrient ingredients, entering the human body with food and transformed during metabolism as a result of complex biochemical transformations into structural elements of cells, provide our body with plastic material and energy, create the necessary physiological and mental performance, determine human health, activity and life expectancy, its ability to reproduce. Therefore, the state of nutrition is one of the most important factors determining the health of the nation. Food must not only meet human needs for essential nutrients and energy, but also perform preventive and curative functions. Among the substances that determine the appearance of food products, the most important place belongs to food dyes. According to the Directive of the European Parliament and the EU Council 94/36, food dyes are chemical synthetic substances or natural compounds that give or intensify the color of a food product or biological objects; not commonly used as a food product or food component. Methods. When writing the article, analytical research methods were used. Results. The literature data on the properties, extraction and use of synthetic food dye tartrazine (E102) in food production technologies are analyzed and summarized. The conclusion about expediency and safety of tartrazine use in the food industry is made. Scope of research results. The multifaceted effect on the human body and experimental animals of various doses of the synthetic food dye tartrazine (E102) is the possibility of adding it to a number of food products in safe quantities that would not cause a toxic effect on the living organism.
Key words: food chemistry, coloring, synthetic food dyes, tartrazine, metabolism, toxicity
