It is an important plant with several ethnomedicinal and nutritional values therefore, used extensively worldwide as a spice, flavouring agent and herbal remedy. Numerous chemical components of Zingiber offcinale have been reported from many regions of the world. Its active ingredients showed the presence of gingerol and gingerol related compounds, paradol, shogoal, zingerone, zerumbone, terpenoids, ginger flavonoids etc. which are responsible for various pharmacological and biological activities such as the antioxidant activity, anti-tumour activity via induction of apoptosis, modulation of genetic and other biological activity, anti-inflammatory and anti-analgesic activity. anti-microbial activity, hepato-protective activity, anti- cancerous activity, anti-proliferation activity and anti-invasion etc. But more work needs to be done regarding its medicinal importance to record and explore recipes for the benefit of improving human health. As the plant of Z. offcinale has immense potential as an anti-biological due to its richness of phytochemicals it possesses, therefore, such studies are recommended in various parts of the countries where it grows.

  • Production of Wine from Ginger and Indian Gooseberry and a Comparative Study of Them Over Commercial Wine
    AmericAmerican Journal of Engineering Research (AJER) 2013 American Journal of Engineering Research (AJER) e-ISSN : 2320-0847 p-ISSN : 2320-0936 Volume-02, Issue-05, pp-19-38 www.ajer.us Research Paper Open Access Production of Wine from Ginger and Indian Gooseberry and A Comparative Study of Them over Commercial Wine Giri Nandagopal.M.S a, Praveen.S.Nair b a,b- Post Graduate Scholars, Department of Chemical Engineering, Kongu Engineering College, Perundurai, Erode, India- 638052. Abstract: Wine is one of the functional fermented foods that have many health benefits. Commercially, wine is produced by the fermentation of yeast which involves the conversion of sugar to alcohol. Wine can act as a nutrient supplement for seasonal fruits and vegetables throughout the year. Using fruits and vegetables having medicinal and nutritional value as a substrate for wine production, the health benefits of them can be improved widely. Ginger and Indian gooseberry, which are known for its high medicinal and nutritional value are used as the substrate here. Fermentation is carried out with Saccharomyces cerevisiae commonly known as bakers yeast. Daily monitoring was done to study the composition and characteristics of the wine. The wine produced resembled the commercial wine in terms of its composition, taste and aroma. During the fermentation period the wines were analyzed for pH, titratable acidity, specific gravity, biomass content, alcohol and reducing sugar on a daily basis. pH show a decreased trend then attains minima and then increased. As the fermentation days proceed, the specific gravity increased and the alcohol percentage increased gradually. Batch 1 Amla (A1) showed a pH range of 3.79-3.56, specific gravity ranges from 1.09 -1.17 and alcohol content was 10.5%.

Voravuthikunchai Natural Products Research Center and Department of Microbiology, Faculty of Science, Prince of Songkla University, Thailand Correspondence : [email protected] ABSTRACT Increasing numbers of reported cases of food-associated infections and health problems associated with synthetic additives have led to a growing interest by consumers in ingredients from natural sources. Some members of the family Zingiberaceae have been extensively used as a condiment for flavoring as well as traditional medicines. These include Alpinia galanga (galanga), Boesenbergia pandurata (krachai), Curcuma amada (mango ginger), Curcuma longa (turmeric), Curcuma zedoria (zedoary), Kampferia galanga (proh hom), Zin- giber officinale (ginger), and Zingiber zerumbet (zerumbet ginger). Their antimicrobial activities against important foodborne pathogens including Bacillus cereus, Campylobacter jejuni, Clostridium botulinum, Clostridium perfringens, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocyto- genes, Salmonella spp., Shigella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, Vibrio spp., Yersinia enterocolitica, Hepatitis A Norwalk virus, Entamoeba histolytica, and Giardia lamblia are outlined. In addition to the antimicrobial activities against a wide range of microorganisms, their antioxidant activities have been documented.
