- Abstract
Zingiber officinale contains various active components. One of the active compounds that exhibit many pharmacological effects is gingerol. Considering the health benefits offered by active compounds of Zingiber officinale, recently many researchers are searching and investigating the right choice of the extraction and separation techniques. Hydrothermal extraction is a new promising technique that gaining many interests from researchers over its numerous benefits. The investigation of subcritical water extraction of gingerol as one of the active constituent of Zingiber officinale was the objective of this research. Experiments were carried out at a temperature of 130-1400C, at a fixed pressure of 2 bar, and samples were taken every 10 minutes to be further analyzed. The research showed that gingerol content of the extract was up to 5% obtained from subcritical water extraction carried out at a temperature of 130 minutes, the pressure of 3 bar and extraction time of 20 minutes.
