Description of key information
Oral administration of Sunset yellow FCF to Rat and Mice indicate rapid excretion of the administered chemical through the urine and faeces upondosing. Sulphanilic acid is the common metabolite identified in both the studies. Dye was visible in bile within 15 min after dosing and the colour disappeared within 2-3 h. Urinary excretion of sunset yellow also was maximal soon after dosing. Thus, it can be concluded that the chemical shall have low bio-accumulation potential.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Bioaccumulation potential:
- low bioaccumulation potential
Additional information
Available data pertaining to the bio-transformation of Sunset yellow FCF to Rat and Mice indicate rapid excretion of the administered chemical through the urine and faeces upon dosing. Thus,it can be concluded that the chemical shall have low bio-accumulation potential.
