Green synthesis of nanoparticles is an environmentally friendly approach that utilizes plant-derived reducing agents to reduce metal ions to their elemental form. One of the bioreductants is red ginger ( Zingiber officinale Rosceo) rhizome which contains flavonoids and polyphenols. This research aimed to optimize the concentration of red ginger extract and PVP-K60 for stable nanogold synthesis. The study began with determining the antioxidant activity of red ginger extract (IC50 = 29.63 µg/mL) and synthesizing nanogold using 600 ppm extract. Different concentrations of PVP-K60 (0.5%, 1%, 2%, and 5%) were used as stabilizers. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized using visual observation, UV-vis spectrophotometry, and particle size analysis. Red ginger rhizome extract effectively reduces gold ions at 600 ppm, and 2% PVP-K60 stabilizes nanoparticles for 28 days.

Few studies of Canadian cinema to date have engaged deeply with genre cinema and its connection to Canadian culture. Ernest Mathijs does just that in this volume, which traces the inception, production, and reception of Canada's internationally renowned horror film, Ginger Snaps (2000).

Plants of the genus Zingiber (Family Zingiberaceae) are widely used throughout the world as food and medicinal plants. They represent very popular herbal remedies in various traditional healing systems; in particular, rhizome of Zingiber spp. plants has a long history of ethnobotanical uses because of a plethora of curative properties. Antimicrobial activity of rhizome essential oil has been extensively confirmed in vitro and attributed to its chemical components, mainly consisting of monoterpene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons such as α-zingiberene, ar-curcumene, β-bisabolene and β-sesquiphellandrene. In addition, gingerols have been identified as the major active components in the fresh rhizome, whereas shogaols, dehydrated gingerol derivatives, are the predominant pungent constituents in dried rhizome. Zingiber spp. may thus represent a promising and innovative source of natural alternatives to chemical food preservatives. This approach would meet the increasing concern of consumers aware of the potential health risks associated with the conventional antimicrobial agents in food. This narrative review aims at providing a literature overview on Zingiber spp. plants, their cultivation, traditional uses, phytochemical constituents and biological activities.

Oleoresin, a product derived from ginger rhizomes, contains a high concentration of active compounds and has the potential to be used not only as a medicine but also as a beneficial natural ingredient material to the human body. Ginger oleoresin is a valuable product that contains a variety of compounds and provides functional health benefits as well as immunity boosters to large groups of people. Gingerol is a key ingredient in ginger rhizome oleoresin extract. Gingerol (C17H26O4) is a compound found in ginger oleoresin that easily decomposes into Shogaols (C17H24O3). The ethanolic extract of zingiber rhizomes powder was processed with the best yield of oleoresin of 38.313% and concentration of [6]-gingerol of 0.39 mg/g extract, which was produced in 120 minutes at a temperature of 60 0C. While the best [6]-gingerol content in oleoresin was 1.33 mg/g extract with a ginger oleoresin yield of 21.821% produced under 50 0C extraction temperature in 60 minutes.

The green synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using a water extract of Ginger (Zingiber officinale) root by microwave irradiation and its antibacterial activities have been reported. However, AgNPs prepared from different parts of ginger root water or ethanol extract by ultrasound synthesis and their antioxidant activity and whether the biogenic could be used to catalyze the reduction of hazardous dye are unknown. This study concentrated on the facile green synthesis of AgNPs prepared from different parts (unpeeled ginger, peeled ginger, and ginger peel) of ginger root water or ethanol extract by the ultrasound-assisted method. We studied their antioxidant activity and catalytic degradation of hazardous dye Direct Orange 26 (DO26) and Direct Blue 15 (DB15). The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) peak of AgNPs was at 428-443 nm. The biogenic AgNPs were approximately 2 nm in size with a regular spherical shape identified from TEM analysis. The ethanol extracts of dried unpeeled ginger and peeled ginger, fresh peeled ginger and ginger peel. The Z. officinale AgNPs synthesized by dried unpeeled ginger ethanol extract showed the best antioxidant activity. Their scavenging activities were significantly better than BHT (p <0.05). The different parts of ginger extracts showed no catalytic degradation activities of DB15 and DO26. Still, the synthesized Z. officinale AgNPs exhibited good catalytic degradation activities, while their ability to catalytic degradation to DB15 was better than DO26. In the additive ratio of 3 mL DB15, 0.1 mL NaBH.sub.4 and 0.1 mL AgNPs, the degradation rates of DB15 (or DO26) at 15 min, 30 min and 60 min were only 1.8% (0.9%), 2.8% (1.4%) and 3.5% (1.6%) in the absence of AgNPs. When adding Z. officinale AgNPs prepared from dried ginger peel ethanol extract or fresh ginger peel water extract, the degradation rates of DB15 sharply increased to 97% and 93% after 30 min, respectively. In conclusion, ginger extract has good antioxidant properties. Z. officinale AgNPs biosynthesis from ginger extract exhibit excellent catalytic degradation activities, especially for the ginger peel extract. They have application value in the treatment of textile effluents and provide a new idea and method for the comprehensive development and utilization of ginger resources.

Background Ginger contains gingerols, shogaols, paradols, gingerdiones, and terpenes which have shown to display anti-inflammatory properties and inhibit pain receptors. For this reason, ginger has been marketed as a natural ingredient for joint health. The purpose of this study was to determine whether a specialized ginger extract effects pain perception, functional capacity and markers of inflammation.Methods 30 men and women (56.0 ± 9.0 years, 164.4 ± 14 cm, 86.5 ± 20.9 kg, 31.0 ± 7.5 kg/m2) with a history of mild to severe joint and muscle pain and inflammation participated in a randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel-arm, intervention trial. Participants donated fasting blood, completed questionnaires, rated pain in the thighs to standardized pressure, and then completed 3 × 10 repetitions of squats/deep knee bends while holding 30% of body mass on days 0, 30, and 56 of supplementation. Participants repeated tests after 2-days of recovery following each testing session. Blood samples were evaluated for markers of inflammation. Muscle soreness was assessed using an algometer at three locations on the thigh. The WOMAC Osteoarthritis Global Index and Lequesne Functional Index (LEQ) Questionnaires were utilized to assess perception of pain and functional capacity. Participants were matched by age, sex, and body mass for double-blind and to ingest 125 mg/d of a placebo or ginger (GingerT3®, Specnova LLC, Tysons Corner, Virginia), standardized to contain 10% total gingerols and no more than 3% total shogaols) for 58 days. Data were analyzed using the general linear model (GLM) analysis of variance with repeated measures, mean changes from baseline with 95% confidence intervals, and chi-squared analysis.Results There was evidence that ginger supplementation: 1.) attenuated perceptions of muscle pain in the vastus medialis (Day 2: χ2 p = 0.087); 2.) reported less pain from sitting (Day 2: χ2 p = 0.02), while nocturnal pain (Day 32: χ2 p = 0.075, Day 58: (χ2 p = 0.097), weight bearing pain (Day 32: χ2 p = 0.058), physical functioning of performing heavy duties (Day 32: χ2 p = 0.100), and physical functioning of performing light duties (Day 2: χ2 p = 0.064) on WOMAC questions; 3.) experienced significant reductions in WOMAC overall ratings of pain, stiffness, physical function, and total score values, particularly in 48-hour follow-up measures; 4.) reported less pain during nighttime bed rest (Day 2: χ2 p = 0.065; Day 32: χ2 p = 0.032) and when going up and down stairs (Day 32: χ2 p = 0.097) from the LEQ; and, 5.) promoted significant differences over time and/or between groups in IL-β, IL-5, IL-6, IL-8, INF-γ, TNF-α, and high sensitivity C-reactive Protein at various points during the study.Conclusion Ginger supplementation promotes some favorable effects on exercise-induced perceptions of pain, functional capacity, and inflammatory markers in men and women who have mild to moderate muscle and joint pain.Registered clinical trial #ISRCTN74292348.

Red ginger (Zingiber offcinale var. rubrum Theilade) is one of the materials used in the functional food and biopharmaceutical industry; it has a low productivity and quality problem and is unable to meet market demand. The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of K fertilization on growth, yield, antioxidant content, and K use and response effciency in red ginger cultivation. The study was conducted at Agro Techno Park (ATP) Jatikerto, Malang Regency, Indonesia. The field experiment was carried out in two periods, December 2019-August 2020 and January 2021-September 2021. In the first planting season, treatments included 4 K fertilizer rates (100, 200, 300, and 400 kg K ha1), while eight treatments were applied in the second planting season (0, 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, and 420 kg K ha1). Measured variables included growth, yield, rhizome quality, and K use and response effciency. Red ginger growth variables (height, leaf number, and tiller number per clump), yield, plant biomass, K uptake, and soil exchangeable K were strongly affected by K application rates, and the highest effect occurred at 300 kg K ha1. In addition, the 300 kg K ha1 rate resulted in the best rhizome morphology quality (rhizome diameter) and antioxidant content (6% to 30% higher than other treatments). Increased K fertilization decreased K use and response effciency from 43% to 99% and decreased antioxidant content. Therefore, the study suggests that applying K fertilization at approximately 200-300 kg ha1 improves the yield and quality of red ginger.
