“…So, C. longa rhizome essential oils from Nepal fall under the category of the first cluster, i.e., turmerones were dominant, but there were other significant constituents as well. Interestingly, an essential oil from Brazil had ar -turmerone, α-zingiberene, β-sesquiphellandrene, humulene epoxide II, cis -α- trans -bergamotol, and β-turmerone [ 31 ]. A sample from India was dominated by 1,8-cineole, β-caryophyllene, α-turmerone, β-turmerone, ar -turmerone, and α-phellandrene [ 32 ].…”

The genus Curcuma, composed of 93 species mainly originating from Asia, Australia, and South America, has been used for medicinal purposes, aromatic, and nutritional values as well as cosmetic. It plays a vital role in flavoring and coloring as well as exhibiting therapeutic agents against different diseases. Nepalese farmers are unaware of the essential oil compositions of Curcuma species, viz. C. aeruginosa, C. zedoaria, and C. longa. The investigation of these three essential oils provides insight into their potential as cash crops and earns a reasonable return from their production. The essential oils were obtained from the rhizomes of each plant by hydrodistillation and subjected to Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis to identify its volatile chemical constituents as well as chiral GC-MS to identify the enantiomeric distribution of chiral terpenoids. The order of extraction yields were C. longa (0.89%) > C. zedoaria (0.74%) > C. aeruginosa (0.37%). In total, the presence of 65, 98, and 84 compounds were identified in C. longa, C. zedoaria, and C. aeruginosa, representing 95.82%, 81.55%, and 92.59% of the total oil, respectively. The most abundant compounds in C. longa essential oils were ar-turmerone (25.5%), α-turmerone (24.4%), β-turmerone (14.0%), terpinolene (7.2%), β-sesquiphellandrene (5.1%), α-zingiberene (4.8%), β-caryophyllene (2.9%), ar-curcumene (1.6%) and 1,8-cineole (1.3%). The most dominant compounds in C. zedoaria were curzerenone (21.5%), 1,8-cineole (19.6%), curzerene (6.2%), trans-β-Elemene (5.1%), camphor (2.6%), and germacrone (2.3%). The major components in C. aeruginosa were curzerenone (59.6%), germacrone (5.3%), curzerene (4.7%), camphor (3.6%), trans-β-Elemene (2.6%), and β-eudesmol (1.6%). C. zedoaria, and C. aeruginosa essential oil from Nepal for the very first time. This study reports for the first time chiral terpenoids from C. aeruginosa, C. zedoaria, and C. longa essential oil. A chemical blueprint of these essential oils could also be used as a tool for identification and quality assessment.

“…Environmental factors and soil nutrients play a critical role in the plant's productivity. There are many reports regarding the effect of altitude, temperature, light, rainfall and soil nutrients on plant secondary metabolite production (Sandeep et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2017;Akbar et al, 2018;Aarthi et al, 2020;Pal et al, 2020;Quemel et al, 2021;Setzer et al, 2021). Analysis of variation in EO yield and quality of turmeric at different locals will not only expand the knowledge towards the role of environment and soil nutrients but also develop alternative strategies to enhance its yield and quality, as was shown in the present study (Sandeep et al, 2016;.…”

“…It is a plant native to Southeast Asia, more precisely on the slopes of hills of the tropical forests of India and is distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. In Brazil, the largest turmeric producer is the Mara Rosa region -Goiás State, belonging to the micro-region of Porangatu, located in the north of Goiás (Quemel et al, 2021). Nowadays, India concentrates the largest production and consumption of turmeric, followed by China, the Caribbean and Latin America, with India being responsible for approximately 80% of the world production of turmeric and 60% of world exports (Das, 2016).…”

“…It is an easy-to-cultivate species and has the advantage of not requiring special agronomic treatments. The quality and quantity of secondary metabolites of turmeric EO maybe associated with its planting region, soil and climate (Sandeep et al, 2016;Akbar et al, 2018;Mekonnen & Garedew, 2019;Aarthi et al, 2020;Pal et al, 2020;Quemel et al, 2021), in addition to genetic and morphological factors (Aarthi et al, 2020;Ferrari et al, 2020b). In this way, the present study aimed to analyse the microbiological soil quality, determinate the EO yield and the phytochemical profile…”

Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) has economic value for its medicinal and nutritional properties. This study aimed to evaluate the yield and phytochemical profile of essential oil (EO) from turmeric rhizomes produced by family farmers in rural communities in Francisco Beltrão – PR, and soil microbiological quality from those farmers. Four turmeric farmers from the communities of São Braz, Rio Tuna, Rio Saudade and Nova Sessão were selected. Soil samples and rhizomes of turmeric were collected and subsequently evaluated for soil microbial biomass carbon, soil basal respiration and soil metabolic quotient and EO yield of rhizomes by hydrodistillation. After, EO yield (%) was calculated and the chemical identification by GC/MS. The Nova Sessão community had better soil microbiological quality, whereas the EO yield (3.02%) was higher for the Rio Tuna community. The four rural communities showed good results for the EO yield (ranging from 1.68 to 3.02% and compared to the literature, which ranged from 0.2 to 5.27%), with the São Braz community, showing a significant reduction and the Rio Tuna community had the highest EO yield. Also was observed variation in the major EO chemical compounds, e.g.: ar-turmerone (44.27 to 64.21%), curlone (12.27 to 20.83%), α-zingiberene (1.30 to 15.97%) and β-sesquiphellandrene (1.24 to 10.07%). It is concluded that among the four communities studied, there was significant variation in the EO yield and differences in EO quality of turmeric, especially in the major components ar-turmerone and α-zingiberene.

“…The rhizomes of ginger, turmeric, and curcuma, used as the main ingredients for making ZICURMA are herbs belonging to the Zingiberaceae, which contain compounds that have potential as an anti-viral antiinflammatory, including bisacumol [34], curcumin [35,36] and desmetoxycurcumin [37]. The results of preclinical studies using animal models show that curcumin regulates the expression of genes related to pro and anti-inflammatory factors such as IL-6, IL-8, IL-10 and COX-2.…”

nSARS-CoV2 causes pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome that involves exacerbated pro-inflammatory cytokines hyperproduction. ZICURMA, zing-curcuma is a tonic developed from ginger, turmeric, and curcuma that may be adequate to remedy nSARS-CoV2 infections. Therefore, this study aims to predict the effectiveness and possible inhibition of potentially bioactive compounds in ZICURMA against pro-inflammatory cytokines through a molecular docking approach. Three bioactive compounds were identified and extracted from KnapSackFamily, namely bisacumol, curcumin and desmetoxycurcumin; then, the 3D structures were generated from PubChem. The protein targets were prepared using an open babel program integrated into PyRx 0.8; there were TN-α, IL-6 / IL-6R, and IL-1 / IL-1R, respectively. The results showed that the ligands had moderate to solid binding affinity with values ranging from –5.0 kcal/mol to –9.0 kcal/mol. However, it offers a mismatch of bonds, including between curcumin compounds and IL-6, IL-6R, IL-1R and IL-1ß. In silico simulation proves that the bioactive compound in ZICURMA does not allow binding to IL-6, IL-6R, IL-1R and IL-1ß proteins. However, it cannot be used as a standard reference to determine the feasibility of bisacumol, desmethoxycurcumin, and curcumin as an anti-viral candidate. Further in-vitro researches should be conducted to validate the potency of ZICURMA as an anti-viral infection. HIGHLIGHTS The main finding of this research includes: The ZIRCUMA or a tonic beverage produced using Zingiber officinale (ginger), Curcuma domestica (turmeric) and C. xanthorhiza (curcuma) contain three most identical bioactive compound, bisacumol, curcumin, and desmethoxycurcumin Bisacumol, curcumin, and desmethoxycurcumin potentially have a strong interact to inflammatory cytokine (that involved in COVID-19 infection) in in-silico simulation The binding interaction is dominated by conventional H-bonds that representing a strong type of interaction. However, the presence of unfavorable donor-donor and unfavorable acceptor-acceptor binding in several interaction should be noted as a possible incompatibility junction Even though it has a strong interaction in in-silico model, the main bioavailability mechanism of bisacumol, curcumin, and desmethoxycurcumin as immunomodulator related to the COVID-19 systemic inflammation in lung organ still unclear GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
