| Popis: |
Light-Microscopic examination of fresh cross-sections (150-200nm thick) of ginger root indicated the presence of deposits of deep, mid-and light yellow coloured cells. The cells had oval, brilliantly shinning, yellowish central portion encased in a dark lining. The deep yellow cells were found tightly packed in the epidermis while the mid-and light yellow cells were found scattered in the cortex and central regions of the rhizome. When the cells were broken, oily droplets were released. FTIR microspectroscopy confirmed the presence of 6 – gingerol in these cells by spectra comparison with a pure crystalline standard.
