  • Additional Information
    • Alternate Title:
      Evaluation of Antioxidant Activity and Potential Hydro-Alcoholic Extracts of Cúrcuma (Curcuma longa).
    • Subject Terms:
      PHENOLS; TURMERIC; GALLIC acid; ANTIOXIDANTS; NATURAL products
    • Abstract:
      Se extrajeron los compuestos fenólicos del rizoma de la cúrcuma (Curcuma longa) empleando como disolvente etanol al 75%. Los compuestos fenólicos presentaron una concentración de 1768.8 mg/L expresados como ácido gálico y se adicionaron a una matriz lipídica. Se determinó la actividad y el potencial antioxidante del producto natural y se comparó con el potencial antioxidante del hidrotolueno butilado (BHT), encontrándose que el extracto de cúrcuma mostró un potencial antioxidante similar al del BHT evaluado a las mismas condiciones. El estudio aporta al conocimiento sobre la extracción de compuestos antioxidantes de origen natural mostrando los beneficios que presentan frente a sus análogos de origen sintético.

    • Abstract:
      Phenolic compounds from the rhizome of turmeric (Curcuma longa) were extracted using ethanol at 75% concentration as solvent. The phenolic compounds presented a concentration of 1768.8 mg/L expressed as gallic acid and were added to a lipid matrix. The antioxidant and potential activities of the natural product were determined and compared with the antioxidant potential of the synthetic antioxidant (BHT) finding that turmeric extracts had antioxidant potential similar to that of BHT, both tested at the same conditions. The study gives new information on the extraction of natural antioxidant compounds showing the benefits that they have over synthetic compounds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
