Objective: The purpose of this research was to observe the bioactive compounds of Karo traditional oil by phytochemistry screening and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. Alkaloid,
Results: Terpenoid and flavonoid compounds were found, and no polyphenol compound from phytochemistry screening and 16 constituents were identified from the GC-MS analysis, α-pinene was found as the major component (74.47%), delta-3-carene (9.62%), 1% of octane, dodecane, camphor, undecane, isodecane, sabinene, hexadecane, nonane, and <1% tridecane, cyclohexane, pentacosane, heptadecan, limonene, and camphene.
Conclusion: Karo traditional oil works as a potent anti-inflammation at the inflammation phase of the wound healing process by suppressing the pro-inflammatory cytokines and promote anti-inflammatory cytokines.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
