What is Curcumin?
Turmeric powder is a bright yellow powder made by dry grinding of mature turmeric rhizomes (underground stems). The use of turmeric for coloring and flavoring food, for cosmetic purposes and for medicinal properties dates back to the ancient Vedic culture of India. Used in almost all Indian curries, this spice has almost no calories (1 tablespoon = 24 calories) and zero cholesterol. It is rich in dietary fiber, iron, potassium, magnesium and vitamin B6. Nowadays curcumin salts are also available, which are water soluble and thus increase the range of products in which curcumin can be used.
With the deepening of research on curcumin, it has been found that it has a wide range of pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidation, lipid-regulating, anti-viral, anti-infection, anti-tumor, anti-coagulation, anti-liver fibrosis, anti-atherosclerosis, etc. , And low toxicity, small adverse reactions. Curcumin is currently one of the world's largest-selling natural food colorings. It is a food additive approved by the World Health Organization, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and many countries. What attracts researchers is not only curcumin as a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, but because of its chemopreventive properties, curcumin has a wide range of preventive properties against diseases. In view of the fact that modern medical research has found that the occurrence of many diseases in the human body is related to the formation of free radicals and the participation of inflammatory reactions, curcumin's antioxidant activity and anti-inflammatory effects have attracted widespread attention from domestic and foreign scholars.

The main sources of curcumin are tuber root of turmeric, rhizome of turmeric, rhizome of zedoary and rhizome of acorus calamus.
Curcumin is orange yellow crystalline powder, taste slightly bitter, insoluble in water and ether, soluble in ethanol, propylene glycol, soluble in glacial acetic acid and alkali solution, red brown in alkaline, neutral, acidic yellow. It was determined by OT-42 method. Melting range 179 ~ 182℃.
Curcumin has strong stability to reducing agent and strong coloring ability. Once it is colored, it is not easy to fade, but it is sensitive to light, heat and iron ions, and has poor light resistance, heat resistance and iron ion resistance.
Because there are two hydroxyl groups at both ends of curcumin molecule, electron cloud deviation conjugation effect occurs under alkaline condition, so when PH is greater than 8, curcumin will change from yellow to red. Modern chemistry uses this property as an acid-base indicator. |
