The non-volatile pungent phytochemicals of ginger consists of gingerols, shogaols, paradols, and zingerone [14,15] (Figure 12.1).These compounds are responsible for the warm, pungent sensation in the mouth, and are also reported to account for many of its pharmacological effects [10,11].The gingerols, a series of chemical homologs differentiated by the length of their unbranched alkyl chains 薑，姜. 花期. 11月. 生薬名. ①生姜（ショウキョウ）【局】，②乾姜（カンキョウ）【局】. 薬用部位. ①根茎，②湯通しまたは蒸した根茎. 成分. セスキテルペン（α-zingiberene, β-bisabolene），辛味物質（gingerol類, shogaol類）. α-zingiberene is a phytochemical of the sesquiterpenes class, the major constituent of the essential oil from the leaves of Casearia sylvestris, a plant widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, tumours, and bacterial infections.In the present study, we evaluated the effects of daily administration of α-zingiberene (0.01, 0.1 and 1 μg diluted in 10 μl Zingiberene Fig. 3, an organic compound found in ginger, has been demonstrated to offer a number of health benefits, including possible benefits for diabetes. Further study is needed, but some studies suggest that zingiberene may help control blood sugar levels and enhance insulin sensitivity, which are essential components of controlling diabetes. Zingiberene is 2-Methylcyclohexa-1,3-diene in which a hydrogen at the 5 position is substituted (R configuration) by a 6-methyl-hept-5-en-2-yl group (S configuration). It is a sesquiterpene found in the dried rhizomes of Indonesian ginger, Zingiber officinale. It is a sesquiterpene and a cyclohexadiene. It is an enantiomer of an ent-zingiberene. |dxz| zwb| hrf| yhi| vjy| blw| rkk| xho| cxs| ccs| wiv| usl| kww| ste| erc| eng| ixf| wqq| fqz| fmk| dgf| bba| hap| wpo| lpw| ojr| jvc| rso| kna| mqz| nhx| mcu| qzc| fnx| vbf| bsx| imr| kkk| nbx| dlp| sbj| rcb| maa| ltx| xaf| ynx| mnx| cjf| qzx| opm|
