Impact of Ginger Enrishment on Biochemical Characteristics of Tisane from Aloysia Citrodora Leaves, Cultivated at a small scale in the Area of Man (West Region of Côte d'Ivoire)
Description
Abstract— This study confirm one of the official missions attributed to the University of Man, those to enhance natural’s resources of the region of Man and its properties. The assessment of the biochemical characterization of a tisane from Aloysia citrodora’s leaves enriched at ginger has been conducted.
To reach this goal, tisane has been prepared with Aloysia Citrodora. An aqueous extract of Zingiber rhizomes has been also produced. Ginger extract incorporated in tisane of Aloysia citrodora at 2.5 % level. The results have shown that many studied parameters increased highly. The dry matter increased from 88.92±3.92% to 90.07±2.91%. Incorporated ginger in tisane of Aloysia citrodora improved total phenolic content, antioxidant capacity, insoluble solids. Total amount of phenolic compounds was 11.68±4.05mg GAE/g and it’s increased to 15.90±0.42 mg GAE /g. Antioxidant activity of this enriched tisane was also 3.96±1.58 µM Trolox Eq / Kg for the ABTS method. The analysis concerning mineral content of obtained tisane has noted a high content particularly those of Calcium. Its content were three time (535 130.4 ppm) important in enriched ginger tisane at 2.5% than Aloysia Citrodora’s tisane (192888.9 ppm).
