Abstract

PHYTO-CHEMICAL AND PHYSICO-CHEMICAL STUDIES OF CURCUMA LONGA RHIZOME

N. Meenatchi Sundaram* and S. R. Murali

ABSTRACT

The present article deals with study of phytochemical and physicochemical analysis of Curcuma longa. rhizome, a member of family Zingiberaceae. The rhizomes of Curcuma longa reported to have good medicinal values intraditional system of medicines. Phytochemical parameters of plant were studied and important chemicals constituents like alkaloids, flavonoids, aminoacids, carbohydrate, proteins, saponin and tannins were identified. Physicochemical screening of the rhizome powder showed 11.69% total ash, 0.89% acid insoluble ash, 4.07% water soluble ash, 15.16% water- soluble extractive, 16.10% alcohol soluble extractive and 3.6 pH. This information will be helpful in standardization for quality, purity and sample identification.
