An UPLC-UV-MS method was developed for the determination of curcuminoids and ar-turmerone from roots of Curcuma longa L., different species of Curcuma (C. zedoaria, C. phaecaulis, C. wenyujin and C. kwangsiensis) and dietary supplements that claimed to contain C. longa. The separation was achieved within 3.5 minutes using a C-18 column, a water/acetonitrile mobile phase, containing formic acid ...

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) has been a famous root crop for its medicinal properties since pre-historical times. Lack of effective therapeutics most viral diseases, higher cost some antiviral therapies, and the emergence drug resistance are increasingly reported. Drug is predicted to be leading cause mortality globally by 2050, thus requiring intervention. The need natural compounds mitigate such ...

Curcuminoids, the bioactive compounds with many beneficial effects on human health, exist in Curcuma longa (turmeric). In present study, impact of different cell disintegration techniques to enhance total curcuminoid recovery (TC) from fresh and dried turmeric was investigated. The thermal pretreatment (TP), ultrasound (UP), enzyme (EP), pulsed electric field (PEF) curcumin (CUR), demethoxycurc...

Numerous studies are nowadays undertaken across the world laboratories on turmeric and show its excellent virtues in various fields such as medicine, pharmacology, cosmetics, so forth. In this paper, to enlarge domain of scientific knowledge, a kinetic thermodynamic behavior curcuminoid extraction from Curcuma longa L has been investigated dilute medium using ethanol solvent under magnetic stir...
