A metabolite of Sudan I (l‐phenylazo‐2—naphthol) was isolated alter in vitro incubation with the supernatant of guinea pig liver homogenate (S·9). The metabolite was found to be 4′‐hydroxy‐l‐phenylazo‐2—naplithol by gas chromatography‐mass spectrormetry (GC‐MS), and proton and carbon‐13 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. It elicited positive reactions in guinea pigs sensitized ot Sudan I. It was also shown to be allergenic. The results suggest that para ‐hydroxylation of the phenyl group of Sudan I may play an important rôle in its allergenicity.
