“…[1,2] Two characteristic groups of compounds from this species, curcuminoids and sesquiterpenes, were showed to be the major active ingredients. [3] Curcuminoids have been found to possess a variety of biological and pharmacological activities including antitumor, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-HIV, anti-Alzheimer's, anti-hepatotoxic and cardiovascular protection activities, [4 -10] leading to increased interest in recent years in this group of compounds.…”

“…These effects are caused by the interaction of ionizing radiation with water molecules, generating free radicals. In turn, these free radicals are highly reactive with different cell components, such as DNA, enzymes, and secondary metabolites (including EOs) [7]. Literature describes the effects of γ-radiation on the chemical composition of many vegetal species.…”

“…Os principais compostos voláteis identificados por CHATTERJEE et al [5] na cúrcuma irradiada foram α-felandreno, p-cimeno, 1,8 cineol, β-cariofileno, arcurcumeno, zingebereno, β-sesquifelandreno, nerolidol, ar-turmerona, curlona e dehidrozingerona. Segundo GOVINDARAJAN [7], os compostos ar-curcumeno e arturmerona podem ser formados durante tratamentos tér-micos, aos quais a cúrcuma é submetida, podendo o arcurcúmeno também ser formado pela conversão do zingibereno e do β-sesquifelandreno durante o armazenamento.…”
