First synthesized in the early 20th century to replace natural colorants, Fast Green FCF is a synthetic triarylmethane dye that is widely valued for its vibrant, stable green hue. Its applications span multiple industries due to its chemical properties and consistent coloring ability.

In 2017, the World Health Organization published a reevaluation concluding that Fast Green FCF has low toxicity and is not carcinogenic or genotoxic when consumed within established allowable daily limits. However, its safety profile is complex and depends heavily on exposure levels and form.
