Galanga Chemische Eigenschaften,Einsatz,Produktion Methoden
Beschreibung
A. galanga Willd. is the galanga variety whose rhizomes were
originally used for extraction of the essential oil. The plant, native
to China, grows wild in Java and Malaysia. Today A. officinarum
Hance (galanga) is used almost exclusively for extractive purposes.
The part used is the rhizomes. Galanga, greater has an aromatic,
pleasant odor and a pungent, burning flavor reminiscent of ginger.
The essential oil, obtained by steam distillation of the comminuted
rhizomes, exhibits an odor and flavor quite different from that of
A. officinarum. Its main constituents include methyl cinnamate
(48%), cineol (20 to 30%), camphor, and probably d-pinene.
The derivatives are fluid extract, tincture, and oleoresin.
