This paper aims to conduct a comprehensive study of the synthesis, extraction and toxicity of indigo dye and its application on cotton fabrics.it will employ an experimental approach to quantify the synthesis rate, extraction efficiency and toxicological properties of indigo dye, in order to determine its potential applicability for cotton fabric dyeing. The synthesis of the indigo dye was accomplished by reaction o-nitrobenzaldehyde and acetone under alkaline condition. The characterization was determine using UV-Visible spectroscopy, FTIR, and melting point decomposition. The extraction of indigo dye from the reaction mixture was studied in terms of the different solvent used and the concentration of toxicity of the indigo dye was accessed using Acute /Oral toxicity test. The results obtained showed that indigo dye can be successfully synthesis and extracted at high yield, and the toxicity level was found to be low level with record of no mortality rate. The results indicate that indigo dye is an appropriate candidate for used in dyeing cotton fabrics due to its low toxicity and excellent extraction efficiency. Further studies suggest to examine the parameter such as K.S value and NMR studies.
