in our study, bioactivity of essential oil extracted from ginger (zingiber officinaleroscoe.) that belongs to family zingiberaceae was analyzed. ginger rhizome oil was found to be effective against a range of bio-deteriogens. the minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) value was determined by poisoned food technique and volatile activity assay. the study demonstrates that essential oil had a wid...

In the present study effort have been made to find the anti-bacteria effect of six medicinal plant essential oil namely, Ocimum bascilicum (Basil oil), mentha arvensis (Cormint oil),Zingiber officinale(ginger oil),citrus limon(lemon oil), thymus mastichina (Marjoram oil) and mentha spicata (Spearmint oil) were assessed for anti bacterial activity against therefore pathogenic bacteria such as B....

BACKGROUND Herbal medicines formulated as oils were believed to possess more powerful effects than their original plants in Iranian Traditional Medicine (ITM). One of the popular oils suggested for treatment of various indications was ginger oil. In the present study, to suggest a more convenient method of oil preparation (compared to the traditional method), ginger oil has been prepared accord...

Essential oils from anise, hyssop, thyme, ginger, camomile and sandalwood were screened for their inhibitory effect against herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) in vitro on RC-37 cells using a plaque reduction assay. Genital herpes is a chronic, persistent infection spreading efficiently and silently as sexually transmitted disease through the population. Antiviral agents currently applied for t...

Essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation and two different solvent extractions (petroleum ether and ethanol) from five Zingiberaceae species: ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe.), galanga (Alpinia galanga Sw.), turmeric (Curcuma longa L.), kaempferia (Boesenbergia pandurata Holtt.) and bastard cardamom (Amomum xanthioides Wall.) was characterized. Volatile components of all extracts were ana...

abstract: the essential oil of plant material is the fraction isolated by means of several methods such as liquid carbon dioxide, microwaves and low or high pressure distillation employing boiling water or hot steam and is chemically defined as terpenoids namely monoterpene and the oxygenated form. since these compounds might be employed as flavour contributors due to their chemical nature, it ...
