a good biosensor for toxicity (Charrier et al., 2011) these types of
results are not decisive for the toxicological evaluation of products
intended for human consumption. Although it is appropriate to
indicate that the description of the results regarding the toxicity of
the essential oil of C. longa coincide with those established in other
investigations where the test model (subject) is different (Funk
et al., 2010; Vijayasteltar et al. , 2013). It is also appropriate to
highlight that the acute administration of turmeric essential oil at a
dose of up to ve (5) g of EA per kilogram of weight in rats did not
represent adverse clinical signs or metabolic changes (Vijayasteltar
et al., 2013).
Conclusions
The essential oil of C. longa has a phenolic content similar to
other essential oils used in food formulations, it also has a high
antioxidant activity against ABTS and DPPH radicals, which
makes it a product of potential use for the food industry. Taking into
account that the oil has a low toxicity compared to the test carried
out, its application could be considered safe.
