ABSTRACT:
Economic part of turmeric is rhizomes. Rhizomes are horizontal underground stems. Mostly in India people use turmeric as medicine in Ayurveda as Anti-bacterial, Anti-oxidant, Anti-inflamentary, etc. Curcumin is a colour pigment present in turmeric which gives yellow colour to the turmeric as well as medicinal properties. Curcumin has anti-cancerous medicinal property it has ability to cure the cancer. Hence curcumin can be replaced against expensive medicinal treatment therapy of cancer. Here we are working on extraction of curcumin from turmeric in low cost through biotechnology 3.9% of the curcumin from turmeric extracted using acetone as solvent by soxhlet apparatus method. Indian farmers can sold curcumin as secondary most valuable product compare to turmeric in the market. For Indian farmer curcumin work as an Agri-gold.
Keywords: Turmeric, Rhizomes, Curcumin, anti-cancerous, solvent, low cost, Agri-gold, colour pigment, Soxhlet unit.
