CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 1.1. Curcuma zedoaria Curcuma zedoaria is a starchy rhizomatous/tuberous from the Zingiberaceae family (table 1.1), commonly known as ginger family. “Ginger” is a general term for members or species of the ginger families. “Curcuma” is the genus name of the rhizomatous herb, of Zingiberaceae. The name was first given by the Linnaeus species Plantarum from the Arabic term meaning yellow colour, probably referring to the colour of the rhizomes (Govindarajan, 1980). Taxonomic classification of Curcuma zedoaria Kingdom Plantae Subkingdom Viridaeplantae Phylum Tracheophyta Division Magnoliophyta Class Liliopsida Super order Zingiberanae Order Zingiberales Family Zingiberales Genus Curcuma Curcuma zedoaria Species Common Name Zedoary Table 1.1 Taxonomic classification of Curcuma zedoaria 1 Chapter 1 1.1.1. Description and distribution Curcuma zedoaria is locally known as “kunyit putih” or “temu putih”. It is able to grow up to one and half meters or even more. The leaves are around eighty centimetres long and they usually have a purple-brown flush along the midrib on both surfaces of the leaf. The rhizomes are frequently confused with those of Curcuma aeruginosa because both are of a similar colour (yellow). However, they can be distinguished easily by conducting a cross section on the rhizomes of the mature plants of Curcuma aeruginosa which are slightly dark purplish. In comparison, the colour of the rhizomes of Curcuma zedoaria is pale yellow or white. The rhizomes of Curcuma aeruginosa are highly aromatic due to the high amount of 1, 8-cineol as 25.20% (Ibrahim et al. 2003). Curcuma zedoaria grows mainly in the East-Asian countries including China (called Er- chu in Chinese), Vietnam, India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Malaysia (can be found at Kuala Selangor, Teluk Intan; Perak, Labis; Johor, and Pahang) and Japan (Islam et al. -

Prioritization of Medicinal Plant for Their Development
PRIORITIZATION OF MEDICINAL PLANT FOR THEIR DEVELOPMENT Criteria for prioritization The National Medicinal Plant Board initially prioritized 32 medicinal plants at national level for their conservation and development. Recently, the list has been revised and 82 species have been included in the list. For the overall development of the medicinal plant sector in the state, there is a need to prioritize various medicinal plant species. This prioritization has to be based on different criteria such as ,(i) criteria for economic development, (ii) Prioritization to address the primary health care of the local community, (iii) medicinal plants prioritized for home and institutional garden, and (iv) prioritization of medicinal plants with conservation value. In the following section we have tried to touch upon different priorities relevant to the state. Medicinal Plants prioritized for trade for high income. The most important criterion they needs to be considered while prioritizing the species for high income is that the plants should be suitable to grow in the prevalent agroclimatic conditions of the state. The species should have high trade value. It should have consistently high demand. The collection, harvest and post harvest technology should suit to the site conditions of Meghalaya.There should have easy access to planting material and it should be comparatively easy to grow. Preference will also be given to those species which are suitable to grow in multi-tier plantations. The selected species should not get easily deteriorated on storage and continued cultivation. They should have enhanced scope for value addition either through primary processing or through secondary processing. A list of top ten prioritized species for obtaining high income through cultivation and trade is given in Table 18. -

Chemical pediculicides Ovicidal activity have lost their efficacy because lice have developed resistance to them. Therefore, alternative pediculicides such Head lice egg as essential oils and herbal products have been proposed for treating head lice infestation. Zingiberaceae EOs Study design: To determine the efficacy of essential oils from three Zingiberaceae plants (Curcuma xanthorrhiza, Eucalyptus globulus EO Curcuma zedoaria and Zingiber zerumbet) against head lice eggs and to investigate an augmenting substance (Eucalyptus globulus EO) for improving the efficacy of these essential oils in killing head lice eggs, especially on the inhibition of their hatching process. Permethrin pediculicide, soyabean oil, and drinking water were used as positive, negative, and neutral controls, respectively. Methods: An immersion test was used to evaluate the ovicidal activity of 12 essential oil formulations. Head lice eggs were immersed for 1, 5 and 10 min in the treatments. Mortality rate was observed on day 7 and day 14; mortality was checked under a stereomicroscope. Results: All head lice eggs that were immersed in a combination of 10% C. zedoaria EO and 10% E. globulus EO for 5 min did not hatch at all for 7–14 days of incubation. -

Genus Curcuma
JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 16, 2020 A REVIEW ON GOLDEN SPECIES OF ZINGIBERACEAE FAMILY: GENUS CURCUMA Abdul Mubasher Furmuly1, Najiba Azemi 2 1Department of Analytical Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, Kabul University, Jamal Mina, 1001 Kabul, Kabul, Afghanistan 2Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Education, Balkh University, 1701 Balkh, Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan Corresponding author: [email protected] First Author: [email protected] Received: 18 March 2020 Revised and Accepted: 20 June 2020 ABSTRACT: The genus Curcuma pertains to the Zingiberaceae family and consists of 70-80 species of perennial rhizomatous herbs. This genus originates in the Indo-Malayan region and it is broadly spread all over the world across tropical and subtropical areas. This study aims to provide more information about morphological features, biological activities, and phytochemicals of genus Curcuma for further advanced research. Because of its use in the medicinal and food industries, Curcuma is an extremely important economic genus. Curcuma species rhizomes are the source of a yellow dye and have traditionally been utilized as spices and food preservers, as a garnishing agent, and also utilized for the handling of various illnesses because of the chemical substances found in them. Furthermore, Because of the discovery of new bioactive substances with a broad range of bioactivities, including antioxidants, antivirals, antimicrobials and anti-inflammatory activities, interest in their medicinal properties has increased. Lack of information concerning morphological, phytochemicals, and biological activities is the biggest problem that the researcher encountered. This review recommended that collecting information concerning the Curcuma genus may be providing more opportunities for further advanced studies lead to avoid wasting time and use this information for further research on bioactive compounds which are beneficial in medicinal purposes KEYWORDS: genus Curcuma; morphology; phytochemicals; pharmacological 1.
