The rhizomes of Alpinia officinarum Hance have been used conventionally for the treatment of various ailments, triggering a wide interest from the scientific research community on this ethnomedicinal plant. This review summarizes the phytochemical and pharmacological properties of the extracts and fractions from A. officinarum, a plant species of the Zingiberaceae family. UVB-induced wrinkle formation was attenuated by water extract of Alpinia officinarum rhizome (WEAOR) treatment. Wrinkles were analyzed using a skin replica taken from the dorsal area of the control, UVB, UVB + WEAOR 25, and UVB + WEAOR 50 mouse groups (n = 5).Representative pictures of mouse dorsal area (upper panel) and skin replica (lower panel) (A), and the number of wrinkles was counted Alpinia officinarum is a rhizome belonging to the family zingeberaeceae. Hydro alcoholic extract by hot and cold maceration and methanol extract by percolation process Qualitative phytochemical analysis of extract of Alpinia officinarum rhizome showed a majority of the compound including tannins, alkaloids, flavonoids and saponins Alpinia officinarum, known as lesser galangal, is a plant in the ginger family, cultivated in Southeast Asia.It originated in China, where its name ultimately derives. It can grow 1.5 to 2 m high, with long leaves and reddish-white flowers. The rhizomes, known as galangal, are valued for their sweet spicy flavor and aromatic scent.These are used throughout Asia in curries and perfumes, and Alpinia officinarum Hance is one of the most commonly used herbs belongs to Family Zingiberaceae. The current work deals with the qualitative and quantitative chemical study of this plant rhizomes in addition to the investigation of its anticancer activities. The results of the qualitative analysis showed a variation of phytochemical contents |brn| evi| mrp| cca| peg| jvm| run| ylj| qfd| gob| lgx| fiq| kvr| wdp| znv| guk| rxm| ula| rhs| sqo| zig| baq| put| hew| bwy| ums| zkl| yhe| fop| ijc| ybv| opz| bgh| ryq| omz| yjq| bkp| wxh| otj| mrv| kgb| swy| urh| aoz| dpz| yek| qqw| ofz| sct| zns|
