Nano Curcumin is a modified form of curcumin where the particles are reduced to nano size to enhance solubility and dispersibility. Curcumin is the key compound found in turmeric, a product of Curcuma longa, a perennial herbaceous plant from the ginger family (Zingiberaceae). Turmeric, widely known as the golden curry spice, has a long-standing history as a culinary and botanical ingredient.
Nano Curcumin typically consists of carbohydrates, moisture, protein, fat, and minerals. Its extracts include curcuminoids such as curcumin, demethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin. Curcumin’s chemical formula is C21H20O6, and it features a unique molecular structure involving aromatic rings connected by a β-diketone moiety.
The nano formulation improves the dissolution rate and stability of curcumin compared to simple powder forms. High-pressure homogenization is among the techniques utilized to produce curcumin nanocrystals, resulting in increased solubility and enhanced performance in various product types.
