Metanil Yellow (Acid Yellow 36) is a dye of the azo class. In analytical chemistry, it is used as a pH indicator and it has a color change from red to yellow between pH 1.2 and 3.2.[1]

Although it is an unpermitted food dye, because of its bright yellow color, Metanil Yellow has been used as an adulterant in turmeric powder and arhar dal, particularly in India.[2][3][4][5]

Animal studies have suggested that Metanil Yellow is neurotoxic[3] and hepatotoxic.[6]

Azo violet (Magneson I;[1] p-nitrobenzeneazoresorcinol) is an azo compound with the chemical formula C12H9N3O4. It is used commercially as a violet dye and experimentally as a pH indicator, appearing yellow below pH 11, and violet above pH 13.[2] It also turns deep blue in the presence of magnesium salt in a slightly alkaline, or basic, environment.[3][4] Azo violet may also be used to test for the presence of ammonium ions[citation needed]. The color of ammonium chloride or ammonium hydroxide solution will vary depending upon the concentration of azo violet used. Magneson I is used to test Be also; it produces an orange-red lake with Be(II) in alkaline medium.[5]
