“…Another example is the dye Amaranth, which was shown to induce DNA damage in the colon epithelium of mice [33][34][35], while Brilliant Black BN has shown genotoxicity in human lymphocytes based on in vitro experiments [36]. Sunset Yellow FCF can cause DNA damage and has shown to have toxic effects on the reproductive and neurobehavioral system of tested rodents and chick embryos [37,38]. Tartrazine was shown to bind to albumin, induce neurotoxicity, impair mental functions, and promote various reactions such as angioedema, nasal congestion, itchy skin, and hives [23].…”

Azo dyes have become a staple in various industries, as colors play an important role in consumer choices. However, these dyes pose various health and environmental risks. Although different wastewater treatments are available, the search for more eco-friendly options persists. Bioremediation utilizing microorganisms has been of great interest to researchers and industries, as the transition toward greener solutions has become more in demand through the years. This review tackles the health and environmental repercussions of azo dyes and its metabolites, available biological approaches to eliminate such dyes from the environment with a focus on the use of different microorganisms, enzymes that are involved in the degradation of azo dyes, and recent trends that could be applied for the treatment of azo dyes.

“…A major issue related to synthetic compounds regards the azo-aromatic group present in the chemical structure of many red and yellow synthetic colorants. In the same way, allergy and other allegations have also been affecting the employment of yellow pigments such as tartrazine in foodstuff [21]. This becomes a problem, as the range of color yellow-red is essential in the food industry.…”

“…The fungus Aspergillus cavenicola afforded the nitrogenated azaphilones trans-cavernamine (4), ciscavernamine (5), amino acid derivatives of cis-cavernamines (6-10), hydroxy-cavernamine (11), amino acid derivatives of hydroxy-cavernamines (12)(13)(14)(15)(16), and two oxygenated derivatives cis and trans-cavernines (17)(18) [34]. The marine-derived fungus Aspergillus falconensis yielded five mitorubrins derivative azaphilones with different benzoyl moieties: two new chlorinated azaphilones, falconensins O and P (19 and 20) when the fungus was cultivated in a solid rice medium containing 3.5% NaCl and three additional new azaphilone derivatives (21)(22)(23) when NaCl was replaced by 3.5% NaBr [35]. From the endophytic Aspergillus terreus of Pinellia ternate, the undescribed dimer of citrinin penicitrinol Q (24) was isolated displaying accentuated Gram-positive antibacterial activity [36].…”

Filamentous fungi are known to biosynthesize an extraordinary range of azaphilones pigments with structural diversity and advantages over vegetal-derived colored natural products such agile and simple cultivation in the lab, acceptance of low-cost substrates, speed yield improvement, and ease of downstream processing. Modern genetic engineering allows industrial production, providing pigments with higher thermostability, water-solubility, and promising bioactivities combined with ecological functions. This review, covering the literature from 2020 onwards, focuses on the state-of-the-art of azaphilone dyes, the global market scenario, new compounds isolated in the period with respective biological activities, and biosynthetic pathways. Furthermore, we discussed the innovations of azaphilone cultivation and extraction techniques, as well as in yield improvement and scale-up. Potential applications in the food, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and textile industries were also explored.

“…However this embryotoxic azo dye can cause diarrhoea, migraines, allergies, anxiety, immunosuppression, hyperactivity (ADHD), eczema, histopathological effects in the kidney and liver, and even cancer in humans based on the level of consumption [19,20]. It also seriously affects other animals by damaging their DNA and chromosomal levels [21][22][23][24][25] and aquatic plants by trapping sunlight and thereby hindering photosynthesis.…”

Photo–Redox Properties of –SO3H Functionalized Metal-Free g-C3N4 and Its Application in the Photooxidation of Sunset Yellow FCF and Photoreduction of Cr (VI)

In this work, we synthesized a metal-free sulfonic functionalized graphitic carbon nitride using sulfuric acid through the wet impregnation technique. The functionalization of sulfonic groups (–SO3H) on g-C3N4 will promote a high surface charge density and charge separation owing to its high electronegativity. The g-C3N4–SO3H shows excellent optical/electronic and surface properties towards enhanced photo–redox reactions. The sulfonic groups also facilitate the availability of more separated charge carriers for photocatalytic oxidation and reduction reactions. The as-synthesized material has been characterized by different spectroscopic tools to confirm the presence of functionalized –SO3H groups and optoelectronic possessions. The photocatalytic responses of g-C3N4–SO3H result in 99.56% photoreduction of Cr (VI) and 99.61% photooxidation of Sunset Yellow FCF within 16 min and 20 min, respectively, of visible light irradiation. The g-C3N4–SO3H catalyst exhibits a high apparent rate constant (Kapp) towards the degradation of Cr (VI), and SSY, i.e., 0.783 min−1 and 0.706 min−1, respectively. The intense optical–electrochemical properties and potentially involved active species have been analyzed through transient photocurrent, electrochemical impedance, and scavenging studies. Consequently, the photocatalytic performances are studied under different reaction parameters, and the plausible photocatalytic mechanism is discussed based on the results.
