Ginger, the rhizome of Zingiber officinale contains the bioactive compounds that have a long history of medicinal usage. The two most abundant ginger bioactives identified are 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol. It is important that the availability of these bioactives are first identified. This is done through ethanol extraction. Thus, this paper identified the effect of extraction time using ethanol on the overall yield and concentration of 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol. Kinetic studies on degradation of the bioactive compounds also have been studied. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was applied as an additional tool for the characterization of the compounds and in identifying the degradation circumstances. Results showed that the highest overall yield was obtained after 8 hours of extraction. In consistent with the overall yield of extraction, the concentration of 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol reached equilibrium within 8 hours. The concentration of 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol are 13923.26 and 4816.84 μg/g, respectively. Conclusively, the saturated concentration of zingiber bioactive compounds could be determined through ethanol extraction within 8 hours.

The functionality of nutraceutical foods is attributed to their bioactive compounds. These compounds are widely produced by plants, such as phenolic compounds, which have antioxidant activity and/or antimicrobial activity, acting against damage to macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids. Secondary plant metabolites, including classes such as phenolic compounds, alkaloids, and terpenoids, have a wide variety of biological activities with medicinal potential. These secondary metabolites are considered bioactive compounds. The Zingiberaceae family received special attention for their large bioactive compound production. Such compounds are useful in foods as herbs, spices, flavorings, and seasonings and in the pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries as antioxidants and antimicrobials. Gingers are recognized as safe by the American Food and Drug Administration (FDA), resulting in no side effects when consumed in moderate amounts. Recent studies show that, in addition to rhizomes, the leaves and flowers of some ginger species have antioxidant activity and consequent medicinal potential. Studies have demonstrated that in vitro and in vivo research is needed to evaluate the efficacy of ginger extracts and understand their role in the modulation of biological and molecular pathways, thus enabling the development of new therapeutic strategies. Thereby, the present work aims to provide a bibliographic review on the antimicrobial activity of Zingiber officinale Roscoe and Alpinia purpurata (Vieill.) K. Schum. (Zingiberaceae), popularly known as ginger and red ginger respectively, and their potential use in the One Health initiative.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) rhizomes are mostly used as spice and medicine due to their high aroma intensity and medicinal bioactive compounds. However, the volatile compounds of ginger, partly responsible for its aroma and medicinal properties, can be affected by the pretreatment, drying method, and extraction processes employed. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of pretreatment and drying on the volatile compounds of yellow ginger variety at nine months of maturation. The effect of potassium metabisulfite (KMBS) and blanching pretreatment and drying on the volatile compounds of ginger using head space solid-phase microextraction with GCMS/MS identification (HS-SPME/GCMS/MS) was investigated. KMBS of concentrations 0.0 (control), 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, and 1.0% and blanching at 50°C and 100°C were used for pretreatment and dried in a tent-like concrete solar (CSD) dryer and open-sun drying (OSD). The different concentrations of KMBS-treated fresh ginger rhizomes did not result in any particular pattern for volatile compound composition identification. However, the top five compounds were mostly sesquiterpenes. The 0.15% KMBS-treated CSD emerged as the best pretreatment for retaining α-zingiberene, β-cubebene, α-farnesene, and geranial. The presence of β-cedrene, β-carene, and dihydro-α-curcumene makes this study unique. The 0.15% KMBS pretreatment and CSD drying can be adopted as an affordable alternative to preserve ginger.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is a common and widely used spice. It is rich in various chemical constituents, including phenolic compounds, terpenes, polysaccharides, lipids, organic acids, and raw fibers. The health benefits of ginger are mainly attributed to its phenolic compounds, such as gingerols and shogaols. Accumulated investigations have demonstrated that ginger possesses multiple biological activities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anticancer, neuroprotective, cardiovascular protective, respiratory protective, antiobesity, antidiabetic, antinausea, and antiemetic activities. In this review, we summarize current knowledge about the bioactive compounds and bioactivities of ginger, and the mechanisms of action are also discussed. We hope that this updated review paper will attract more attention to ginger and its further applications, including its potential to be developed into functional foods or nutraceuticals for the prevention and management of chronic diseases.

Изучены адаптогенные свойства растительного средства «Кардекаим», представляющего собой сухой экстракт из сырья Inula helenium L., Zingiber officinale Roscoe, Elletaria cardamomum (L.) Maton., Caragana spinosa (L.) Wall. ex Hornem. и содержащего в качестве действующих веществ фенольные соединения и терпеноиды. Курсовое превентивное введение кардекаима в дозе 100 мг/кг в течение 7 дней перед острым эмоциональным стрессом оказывает выраженное стресс-протективное действие, препятствуя развитию признаков «триады Селье»: инволюции вилочковой железы (40 %), язвенным повреждениям слизистой оболочки желудка (в 5 раз) и в меньшей степени — гипертрофии надпочечников (p ≤ 0,05), полученный эффект не уступает препарату сравнения — экстракту элеутерококка. Показано, что повышение резистентности к стрессу под влиянием кардекаима сопровождается активацией синтеза белков теплового шока (Hsp-70), не связанной со стресс-индуцированной генерацией NO.
