Journal Title: Asian J of Pharm Sci & Tech - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper reports an investigation of the extraction of Oleoresin present in the crude plant extracts of four selected turmeric plants i.e. BSR-01, BSR-02, CL-101, CL-219. Oleoresin is one of the most significant organic oil content that are extracted from the turmeric rhizomes. It is naturally occurring mixtures of an oil and a resin and is added to food items as a spice and coloring agents. Turmeric oil is widely used in pharmaceutical and biological applications. This investigation was carried out to determine and compare the quantitative amounts of oleoresin that are present in four different varieties of turmeric. The extraction of the oil content from turmeric was attempted by using a simple column extraction method with alcohol and acetone as a solvent. We have been achieved the isolation process of oleoresin from turmeric in the easy manner with high recovery and also we found that oleoresin rich turmeric variety from this investigation. Key words: Turmeric rhizomes, Curcuma longa L, Curcuminoids, Oleoresin, Column method.
