The current wave of appalling shortage and scarcity of food and agricultural produce throughout the world has resulted in the spiraling prices of eatables. Implicit in the situation is another serious problem of adulteration of food, which has recently made its dreadful appearance on a scale rarely witnessed in the past. Among various contaminants of food, the use of food colours, in particular, have attained alarming dimensions in the recent years. It is a matter of serious concerns that in spite of regulatory surveillance the use of non-permitted colours in some loose/non-branded products in both rural and urban markets is continuing. Majority of non-permitted food dyes such as Metanil yellow, Orange II, Rhodamine B, Malachite green, Auramine, Amaranth and Sudan dyes are known to cause varied toxic manifestations in the experimental animals. The present study was aimed to evaluate the cytogenetic effects of a non-permitted food dye lead chromate on swiss albino mice. The results clearly indicate the chromotoxic effects of lead chromate, both for short term and long-term experiments.

The objective of this investigation was to analyze the relationship between family environment and depression among adolescent students. The study consisted 300 adolescent students (150 male & 150 female) selected through stratified random sampling. The age range of the sample group was between 14 to 17 years. They were taken from C.B.S.E. board schools of Ghaziabad city. The tools of the study, Family Environment Scale by Bhatia and Chadha and Cornell Medical Index Health Questionnaire by Wig, Pershad, and Verma, for Depression were used. Statistical analysis used for the present study were correlation and multiple regression. A significant negative correlation was found between family environment and depression among adolescent students in terms of family cohesion, expressiveness, acceptance and caring, independence, active-recreational orientation, organization and control except Conflict which was positively correlated to depression. In addition, three dimensions of family environment, i.e., independence, conflict and organization emerged as predictors of depression among adolescents in the present study.Keywords

The present research aimed to study the relationship between Family environment and Anger among adolescents. A sample of 300 adolescents, studying in class X to XII , C.B.S.E. board schools from Ghaziabad was taken. Family Environment Scale (Bhatia & Chadha, 2015) and CMI Health Questionnaire (Wig, Pershad, & Verma, 2002) were used to measure Family Environment and Anger respectively. Correlation and Multiple regression were used to analyze the data. Results suggest an inverse relationship between family environment and Anger in terms of, cohesion, expressiveness, acceptance and caring, independence, active-recreational orientation, organization and control, leaving out Conflict which was positively correlated to Anger. Further, Expressiveness, Conflict, Organization, Independence, and Cohesion come up as predictors of Anger among adolescents.Keywords
