  • nutritional effects of Ginger zingiber officinale roscoe on immune response of asian sea bass lates calcarifer bloch and disease resistance against vibrio harveyi
    Aquaculture, 2013
    Co-Authors: Allah Dad Talpur, Mhd Ikhwanuddin, Abolmunafi Ambok Bolong
    Abstract:

    The present study was aimed at determining the effects of Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) as feed additive on Asian sea bass, Lates calcarifer culture. Experimental diets containing Ginger 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 g/kg of feed were fed to L. calcarifer and control was fed with no Ginger. After the feeding trial for 15 days, fish were challenged with Vibrio harveyi and mortality was recorded for two weeks. Ginger diet led to control of experimental infection in L. calcarifer. Highest survival (86.6%) was achieved in groups fed with Ginger at 5 and 10 g/kg feed respectively, compared to the control (26.7%). In addition, there was a significant increase in weight gain, growth and feed conversion in those fish fed Ginger diet. Ginger diet influenced the haematological parameters, biochemical indices and immunological activities. The number of erythrocytes (RBC) and leucocytes (WBC) was significantly (p < 0.05) higher in the groups fed Ginger diet compared to the control. The blood glucose level, lipid, triglyceride and cholesterol levels were relatively lower in treated groups compared with the control. Phagocytic, respiratory burst, lysozyme, bactericidal and antiprotease activities were significantly increased in Ginger fed groups compared with the control. The results of this study demonstrated that dietary Ginger doses might strengthen the non-specific immunity and reduce susceptibility to V. harveyi.

  • anti diabetic and hypolipidaemic properties of Ginger zingiber officinale in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats
    British Journal of Nutrition, 2006
    Co-Authors: Zainab M Alamin, Martha Thomson, Khaled Alqattan, Riitta Peltonenshalaby, Muslim Ali
    Abstract:

    In the present study, the hypoglycaemic potentials of Ginger (Zingiber officinale) were studied in rats. An aqueous extract of raw Ginger was administered daily (500 mg/kg, intraperitoneally) for a period of 7 weeks to streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats. Fasting blood serum was analysed for blood glucose, cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels. The STZ-injected rats exhibited hyperglycaemia accompanied with weight loss, indicating their diabetic condition. At a dose of 500 mg/kg, raw Ginger was significantly effective in lowering serum glucose, cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels in the Ginger-treated diabetic rats compared with the control diabetic rats. The Ginger treatment also resulted in a significant reduction in urine protein levels. In addition, the Ginger-treated diabetic rats sustained their initial weights during the treatment period. Moreover, Ginger decreased both water intake and urine output in the STZ-induced diabetic rats. The present results indicate that raw Ginger possesses hypoglycaemic, hypocholesterolaemic and hypolipidaemic potential. Additionally, raw Ginger is effective in reversing the diabetic proteinuria observed in the diabetic rats. Thus, Ginger may be of great value in managing the effects of diabetic complications in human subjects.

  • the use of Ginger zingiber officinale rosc as a potential anti inflammatory and antithrombotic agent
    Prostaglandins Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2002
    Co-Authors: Martha Thomson, Khaled Alqattan, S M Alsawan, M A Alnaqeeb, Islam Khan, Muslim Ali
    Abstract:

    Abstract The effect of an aqueous extract of Ginger ( Zingiber officinale ) on serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels as well as platelet thromboxane-B 2 and prostaglandin-E 2 production was examined. A raw aqueous extract of Ginger was administered daily for a period of 4 weeks, either orally or intraperitoneally (IP) to rats. Fasting blood serum was investigated for thromboxane-B 2 , prostaglandin-E 2 , cholesterol and triglycerides. A low dose of Ginger (50 mg/kg) administered either orally or IP did not produce any significant reduction in the serum thromboxane-B 2 levels when compared to saline-treated animals. However, Ginger administered orally caused significant changes in the serum PGE 2 at this dose. High doses of Ginger (500 mg/kg) were significantly effective in lowering serum PGE 2 when given either orally or IP. However, TXB 2 levels were significantly lower in rats given 500 mg/kg Ginger orally but not IP. A significant reduction in serum cholesterol was observed when a higher dose of Ginger (500 mg/kg) was administered. At a low dose of Ginger (50 mg/kg), a significant reduction in the serum cholesterol was observed only when Ginger was administered IP. No significant changes in serum triglyceride levels were observed upon administration of either the low or high dose of Ginger. These results suggest that Ginger could be used as an cholesterol-lowering, antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory agent.

  • Zingiber officinale Rosc. essential oil, a review on its composition and bioactivity
    Clinical Phytoscience, 2019
    Co-Authors: Mohaddese Mahboubi
    Abstract:

    Zingiber officinale Rosc. is widely used as spice and medicinal plant in folk and traditional medicines. The aim of this study was to review the chemical composition and biological activities of Z. officinale (Ginger) essential oil. Ginger oil is extracted from Z. officinale rhizomes, which its chemical composition influences from geographical region, extraction methods, freshness or dryness of rhizomes. The antibacterial, antifungal, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-ulcer, immunomodulatory, relaxant, and warming effects of Ginger oil have been confirmed in experimental and preclinical studies. The safety issues of Ginger oils are well documented and are generally regarded as safe. Due to wide pharmacological effects of Ginger oil, attention to Ginger oil as an ingredient of natural formulations in management of gastrointestinal and respiratory diseases is valuable.
