This study evaluated the antibacterial and antiproliferative activity of essential oils from four Zingiberaceae species for oral care. Curcuma xanthorrhiza and Curcuma mangga oils showed strong antibacterial properties, suggesting they could be used as natural alternatives in oral care products. Further research is needed to explore their therapeutic potential.
This study investigates the anticancer activity of Curcuma aeruginosa essential oil and its nano-formulations. Curcuma aeruginosa has potential in treating diseases and has various properties such as anti-HIV, hepatoprotective, antimicrobial, and anti-androgenic activities. Understanding its anticancer activity could have implications for cancer treatment.
Curcuma and curcuminoids have anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that benefit skin health, wound healing, and UV damage prevention. More research is needed to determine optimal usage for dermatological conditions.
