Official title
Investigation of Photodegraded Edible Food Dyes in Drinking Water on Thyroid Function
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Assess and contrast the effect of erythrosine and photodegraded erythrosine on thyroid function. Thyroid function will be evaluated as serum triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), T3 resin uptake as well as measures of iodine in serum and plasma before and after a 14-day repeat administration of these edible dyes in drinking water. Dose-related increases in serum and plasma-bound iodine are expected for both erythrosine and photodegraded erythrosine over the 14-day exposure period. TSH is also expected to increase following repeat administration of erythrosine and photodegraded erythrosine. Erythrosine and photodegraded erythrosine are expected to induce an equivalent dose-response increase in thyroid function-related hormone levels.
