Free radical scavenging capacity, antibacterial activity and essential oil composition of turmeric (Curcuma domestica) varieties grown in Ethiopia

Abstract: Turmeric is a known spice indispensable for food preparation and is reported to possess different chemical properties and biological activities. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of variety and type of extracts on 1, 1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) reducing capacity, antibacterial activity, and chemical composition of essential oil from turmeric varieties cultivated in Ethiopia. The results from the statistical analysis revealed that the highest total curcuminoids content (6.81% m/m),… Show more

“…Turmeric is rich in curcuminoids, a polyphenolic compound which contains 70-77% curcumin, 18-20% d e m e t h o x y c u r c u m i n a n d 7 -1 0 % bisdemethoxycurcumin (Pradeep et al, 2016). These active constituents of turmeric are known to exhibit a wide range of biological activities which includes antibacterial and antifungal activities (Kebede et al, 2021). In a bid to search for natural and readily available alternatives to antibiotic-based rumen modifiers, this study aimed at exploring the potentials of turmeric as a rumen modifying feed additive with a view of determining its level of inclusion in the diet for achieving rumen fermentation changes.…”
