Resumo: Many compounds present in foods, whether natural or added or produced during processing, have already been tested for mutagenicity or antimutagenicity in different experimental systems. The great number of food colorings available, both natural and synthetic, has led researchers to assess the mutagenicity and/or antimutagenicity of these compounds. Some synthetic colorings have mutagenic potential and their use has been forbidden in some countries. Many natural colorings tested have antimutagenic potential in at least one test system, but this does not mean that natural dyes are innocuous. The natural coloring curcumin, for example, showed antimutagenic potential in in vivo tests but was mutagenic in in vitro tests. This paradox emphasizes the importance of careful assessment and wide investigation into the possible mutagenic and/or antimutagenic activity of food colorings.

O grande número de corantes para alimentos, naturais ou sintéticos, tem levado os pesquisadores a avaliar a mutagenicidade e/ou antimutagenicidade desses compostos. Alguns corantes sintéticos apresentaram potencial mutagênico e seu uso foi proibido em alguns países. Muitos corantes naturais testados apresentaram potencial antimutagênico em pelo menos um sistema-teste, entretanto, isto não quer dizer que os corantes naturais são inócuos. O corante natural curcumina, por exemplo, apresentou potencial antimutagênico nos testes in vivo e foi mutagênico nos testes in vitro. Este paradoxo ressalta a importância de uma avaliação criteriosa e ampla na avaliação da possível atividade mutagênica e/ou antimutagênica dos corantes. Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2000-08-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/8762Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 13 No. 2 (2000): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 13 Núm. 2 (2000): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 13 n. 2 (2000): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/8762/6177Copyright (c) 2023 Lusânia Maria Greggi ANTUNES, Maria Cristina Paiva ARAÚJOhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessGreggi ANTUNES, Lusânia Maria Paiva ARAÚJO, Maria Cristina 2024-04-08T12:23:02Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/8762Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2024-04-08T12:23:02Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
