Evaluation of Analytical Techniques for Curcumin Quantification: A Comprehensive Review
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Turmeric (Curcuma longa) a golden-yellow spice widely used in both culinary and medicinal practices, contains curcumin as its primary bioactive compound, known for its potent anti- inflammatory, anti-oxidant and anti-cancer properties. It has been utilized for centuries in traditional medicine, particularly in Ayurveda. However, curcumin’s poor bioavailability poses challenges, prompting the use of enhancers like pipeline and innovative pharmaceutical formulations to improve its absorption. Analytical techniques such as UV-Visible Spectroscopy, HPTLC and HPLC are employed for the precise quantification of curcumin in pharmaceutical products, ensuring accurate dosing. These methods play a vital role in its routine application in both traditional and modern medicinal systems.
