Abstract

The isolation of curcuminoids from turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) was performed using different extraction methods and solvents. Obtained extracts were analyzed regarding the contents of curcumin, demethoxycurcumin and bisdemethoxycurcumin using HPLC. Furthermore, radical scavenging and antibacterial activities of extracts were also determined. Results show that the highest yield of the extract is obtained using conventional extraction with mixing in ethanol, resulting also with the highest concentration of curcuminoids. All obtained extracts show strong antifungal properties but low antibacterial activity.
