Determination of Curcuma longa L. (Turmeric) Leaf Extraction Conditions Using Response Surface Methodology to Optimize Extraction Yield and Antioxidant Content

Determination of Curcuma longa L. (Turmeric) Leaf Extraction Conditions Using Response Surface Methodology to Optimize Extraction Yield and Antioxidant Content<i>Curcuma longa</i> L. (turmeric) has been used as a functional food material, but other parts of it such as leaves are wasted as a byproduct. This work concentrated on developing turmeric leaves as a functional food material by establishing its optimal extraction condition. Response surface methodology was applied to optimize turmeric leaf extraction conditions. Turmeric leaves were pulled out with water and ethanol (10, 30, and 50%). Then, total phenolic compound content, total flavonoid content, and radical-scavenging activity of each extract were quantified to confirm the optimal extracting solvent. According to the results, water was the most efficient solvent to extract antioxidant contents such as total phenolic compounds (3.65 ± 0.02 mg GAE/g) and flavonoids (4.99 ± 0.17 mg QCE/g) content. Radical-scavenging activity was also higher in water extract compared with others such as DPPH (51.10 ± 2.29%), H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> (25.39 ± 2.69%), and ABTS (91.08 ± 0.15%). Central composite design was applied to confirm the effect of independent variables such as temperature (<i>X</i><sub>1</sub>) and time (<i>X</i><sub>2</sub>) to the yield (<i>Y</i><sub>1</sub>). After conducting experiments, the extraction condition was established as 150 min with 1 : 25 ratio at 85°C with a 15.58% yield. Proximate compositions of the extract were determined to suggest background data for further research. In conclusion, this study confirmed the antioxidant property of turmeric leaves and developed the optimal extraction condition of the leaves to promote its application in food industry as a new food source.

Antioxidant Effects of Turmeric Leaf Extract against Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Oxidative Stress In Vitro in Vero Cells and In Vivo in Zebrafish

Antioxidant Effects of Turmeric Leaf Extract against Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Oxidative Stress In Vitro in Vero Cells and In Vivo in ZebrafishOxidative stress, caused by the excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), results in cellular damage. Therefore, functional materials with antioxidant properties are necessary to maintain redox balance. Turmeric leaves (Curcuma longa L. leaves; TL) are known to have antioxidant properties, including 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-Azino-di-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline)-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), and Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) radical scavenging activity in several studies. The antioxidant effects of TL come from distinct bioactive compounds, such as curcumin, total phenolic compounds, and flavonoids. Therefore, in this study, the antioxidant effects of a water extract of TL (TLE) against H2O2 treatment were assessed in vitro Vero cells and in vivo zebrafish models. The intracellular ROS generation and the proportion of sub-G1 phase cells were evaluated in H2O2- or/and TLE-treated Vero cells to measure the antioxidant activity of TLE. TLE showed outstanding intracellular ROS scavenging activity and significantly decreased the proportion of cells in the sub-G1 phase in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, cell death, ROS generation, and lipid peroxidation in the H2O2-treated zebrafish model were attenuated as a consequence of TLE treatment. Collectively, the results from this study suggested that TLE may be an alternative material to relieve ROS generation through its antioxidant properties or a suitable material for the application in a functional food industry.
