Unnaturally yellow. Chemically treated?

So I got this small piece with some slabs of cypress and mesquite from a local kiln/shop from their offcut pile. Planned it down a bit and it is like highlighter yellow inside (the photo really doesn't do it justice just how unnaturally yellow it is). What could possibly cause this? The color goes all the way through the heart wood but the sap seems unaffected. Some sort of chemical treatment? Should I be concerned about working it?

The king bed frame I made

It doesn't hold a candle to most of the work I see on here but I like it and my wife was impressed so I call it a success! I was kinda broke after the mattress, so its 2x4s and plywood with cedar side panels to dress it up.
