The quality check and determination of permitted and non-permitted additive colors in food products is very important for customer׳s right protection and health. This survey was undertaken to demonstrate the frequently use of additive colors and products targeted to color adulteration in Iranian foods and beverages. From the 1120 of the samples, 18.86% contained artificial colors, 11.89% contained natural colors and 69.25% of samples had no additive colors. Tartrazine (E102) was the only non-permitted artificial dye used in samples. Among products with additive colors, only 4.38% of samples failed to meet with national Iranian standard and 61.23% of non-compliance samples were from non-industrial sectors and mostly were saffron and food containing saffron such as saffron rock candy and saffron chicken. These places and products quality are main the concern to solve the color adulteration in Iranian food market.
食品中允许使用和禁止使用的食用色素的质量检查和测定对于保护消费者权益和健康非常重要。本次调查旨在展示伊朗食品和饮料中食用色素的频繁使用情况以及存在色素掺假问题的产品。在1120个样本中，18.86%含有人工色素，11.89%含有天然色素，69.25%的样本不含食用色素。柠檬黄（E102）是样本中唯一使用的违禁人工合成色素。在含有食用色素的产品中，只有4.38%的样本不符合伊朗国家标准，61.23%的不合格样本来自非工业部门，主要是藏红花以及含有藏红花的食品，如藏红花冰糖和藏红花鸡。这些场所和产品的质量是解决伊朗食品市场色素掺假问题的主要关注点。
