isocurcumenol/ウコン属

Curcuma zedoaria belonging to the family Zingiberaceae has been used in the traditional system of medicine in India and Southwest Asia in treating many human ailments and is found to possess many biological activities. The rationale of the present study was to isolate, identify, and characterize

Six sesquiterpenes: germacrone (1), zederone (2), dehydrocurdione (3), curcumenol (4), zedoarondiol (5) and isocurcumenol (6) were isolated from rhizomes of Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb. (Zingiberaceae). They inhibited 5α-reductase which converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Germacrone (1)

Curcuma ochrorhiza ('temu putih') and C. heyneana ('temu giring') are two Zingiberaceous species which are commonly used in traditional medicine in Malaysia and Indonesia. Phytochemical investigations on these Curcuma species have resulted in the isolation of six sesquiterpenes, namely zerumbone

OBJECTIVE To investigate the chemical constituents of the rhizome of Curcuma phaeocaulis Val. METHODS The constituents were isolated by column chromatography and their structures elucidated by chemical properties and spectroscopic analysis. RESULTS Five compunds have been isolated and identified as

In this paper, GC-MS and pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) was developed for identification and quantitative determination/estimation 11 sesquiterpenes including germacrene D, curzerene, gamma-elemene, furanodienone, curcumol, isocurcumenol, furanodiene, germacrone, curdione, curcumenol and

Volatile components of Curcuma sichuanensis X. X. Chen growing in Sichuan, China, were extracted by steam distillation and analyzed by using gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A total of 44 volatile essential oil components were identified in the extract of C. sichuanensis

Hepatoprotective sesquiterpenes were isolated from the aqueous acetone extract of Zedoariae Rhizoma, the rhizome of Curcuma zedoaria ROSCOE (Zingiberaceae). Principal sesquiterpenes, furanodiene, germacrone, curdione, neocurdione, curcumenol, isocurcumenol, aerugidiol, zedoarondiol, and curcumenone

A high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection (HPLC-DAD) and pressurized liquid extraction was developed for simultaneous quantitative determination of 11 characteristic compounds, including curcumenone, curcumenol, neocurdione, curdione, isocurcumenol, furanodienone,

BACKGROUND Turmeric is a rich source of bioactive compounds useful in both medicine and cuisine. Mineral concentrations effects (PO43-, Ca2+, Mg2+, and KNO3) were tested during in vitro rhizome development on the ex vitro content of volatile constituents in rhizomes after 6 months in the greenhouse.

GC-MS is a powerful tool for analysis of volatile oil, and resolutions of analytes were exclusively used as marker for optimization of the conditions. However, volatile oil usually contains heat labile components which may degrade and result in wrong results during GC analysis. In present study,

Curcuma longa possesses powerful antifungal activity, as demonstrated in many studies. In this study, the antifungal spectrum of Curcuma longa alcohol extract was determined, and the resulting EC50 values (mg/mL) of its extract on eleven fungi, including Fusarium graminearum, Fusarium
