Some Biochemical Effects of Certain Food Colourants

In the present work biochemical studies were carried out to evaluate the effects of pouceau 4R in two doses 0.08 g/kg diet/day and 0.4 g/kg diet / day and sunset yellow in two doses 0.0 g/kg diet Iday and 0.4 g/kg diet / day after 30 days (short term studsome body tissue constituents and enzymes activities and lipid profiles of experimental animals. The results indicated the following remarks. l-Plasma total lipids, triacylglycerols and total cholesterol weresignificantly decrease in the subjected rats un2- Plasma total protein wassignificantly increased in the subjected rats under synthetic dyes induction than control. 3- Plasma albumin, globulin were significantly increased in the subjected rats under synthetic dyes induction than control.4-Plasma A/G ratio was non significantly changed in the subjectedrats under synthetic dyes induction relative to control. 5- The activities of plasma AST, AL T,alkalinephosphatase enzymes were significantly increased in the rats under synthetic dyes induction than control
