  • Is there A chemotype for cumin seed essential oil?
  • No previous studies were found for cumin seed essential oils from Afghanistan and Iraq so this could be considered as the first report. The essential oil yields were ranging between 1.16 % and 1.98 %. According to the chemical compositions, two chemotypes were identified as p -mentha-1,4,-dien- 7-al, and cumin aldehyde.
  • Does the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of cumin essential oil vary?
  • In conclusion, our work has shown that the chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of cumin essential oil is correlated and varies depending on climatic and edaphic condition of the growth site.
  • Are cumin essential oils antifungal?
  • Strong antifungal activity was showed by overall cumin essential oils. Essential oils from 8 Cuminum cyminum local populations collected in Morocco were investigated for their chemical composition and antimicrobial activity.
  • What is black cumin seed oleoresin?
  • According to a previous analysis reported in literature, the black cumin seed oleoresin consisted of 2.5% volatile oil while the lipid content was 38.7% . As depicted by our GC¨CMS results, all three oleoresins were found to be rich of unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid, oleic acid etc. along with the volatile polyphenols.
  • What are the main components of cumin essential oil?
  • ¦Â-pinene, p- cymene, ¦Ã-terpinene, cuminal, ¦Á-terpinen-7-aI and ¦Ã-terpinen-7-a are cumin essential oil main components. The matrix obtained from the chromatographic data showed that cumins can be divided in 5 groups. Lactic acid bacteria showed a good resistance to all essential oil tested.
  • Can black cumin oleoresin be used as nutraceuticals?
  • Although black cumin volatile oil has been studied extensively there are very few reports on the activity of its oleoresin which has the potential to be explored as nutraceuticals due to the increased concentration of the volatile compounds in therapeutic deliveries.
