Study of natural substances of ginger
Dobiáš, Vojtěch ; Vespalcová, Milena (referee) ; Veselá, Mária (advisor)
The aim of this study was to determine the quantity of natural substances in ginger. Extracts from organic ginger tea and ginger rhizome were prepared using three different solvents. Antioxidant activity and the content of polyphenols and flavonoids were determined spectrophotometrically. Effects on bacterial growth of the extracts were studied against bacteria Bacillus cereus and Serratia marcescens by agar well diffusion assay. The obtained data showed, that there is a significant amount of difference between the contents of studied compounds in the two extract samples. The highest amount of polyphenols was found in ginger tea with concentration of 0,481 mgml-1, compared to 0,078 mgml-1 found in the ginger rhizome. The tea showed a greater antioxidant activity than the rhizome. Bacterial growth was slightly inhibited only by water extracts of the tea and this was only observed against Bacillus cereus.
