Applications of Turmeric Starch and Curcumin

Abstract

In Asia and Central America, turmeric (Curcuma longa L.), sometimes known as "Indian saffron," is a perennial plant that belongs to the Zingiberaceae family. Due to the dried turmeric rhizomes' high concentration of minerals, proteins, carbs, and lipids, as well as the fact that it is available in a form that is simple to use and contains heat, light, and oxygen. Its excellent storage stability against environmental factors makes it more desirable, particularly in the context of the food business. In this study, based on the research on turmeric, curcumin, and its starch, the molecular mechanisms and pharmacological properties underlying its use in various diseases such as anti-inflammatory, anti-diabetic, antioxidant, anti-obesity, cardio-liver, anti-cancer, anti-arthritis. And its effects on metabolism. In addition to the lack of sufficient studies, it has been argued that its use in the food and pharmaceutical industry is promising when the results of the research are examined.

Zerdeçal Nişastası ve Kurkuminin Uygulamaları

Öz

Asya ve Orta Amerika'da bazen "Hint safranı" olarak bilinen zerdeçal (Curcuma longa L.), Zingiberaceae familyasına ait çok yıllık bir bitkidir. Kurutulmuş zerdeçal rizomlarının yüksek konsantrasyonda mineraller, proteinler, karbonhidratlar ve lipitler içermesinin yanı sıra kullanımı kolay ve ısı, ışık ve oksijen içeren bir formda mevcut olması, çevresel faktörlere karşı mükemmel depolama kararlılığı, özellikle gıda işi bağlamında onu daha çok arzu edilir kılmaktadır. Zerdeçal, kurkumin ve nişastası üzerine yapılan araştırmalara dayanan bu çalışmada, anti-inflamatuar, anti-diyabetik, antioksidan, anti-obezite, kardiyo-karaciğer gibi çeşitli hastalıklarda kullanımının altında yatan moleküler mekanizmalar ve farmakolojik özellikler, anti-kanser, anti-artrit. ve metabolizma üzerindeki etkileri incelenmiştir. Yeterli çalışma olmamasının yanı sıra, araştırma sonuçları incelendiğinde gıda ve ilaç endüstrisinde kullanımının umut verici olduğu görülmektedir.
