It was further reported to produce deformities in the young, increase the number of still births, decrease fertility and reduce the survival of the young Erythrosine, another red coloured dye was found to cause learning disabilities as well as altered behaviour in children. Several other dyes were reported to produce sarcomas of the peritoneum and intestinal tract; increased incidence of several subclinical conditions.- A New Approach for the Control of Vitamin A Deficiency

Undernutrition in boys has been frequently reported to cause delayed onset of sexual maturation. However, the mechanisms through which undernutrition brings about this delay in the onset of puberty still remains uncertain. It is well established that the anterior pituitary gonadotrophins, LH (Luteinizing Hormone) and FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone), play a critical role both prior to and during puberty in bringing about sexual maturation.- An Experimental Study to Evaluate any Possible Interaction of Lac Dye with the Hepatic Tissue
