Abstract

Zingiber officinale has been analyzed for the main phytochemical composition, nutrient and mineral composition.The phytochemical screening of chemical constituents of the plant showed that ginger contains sterols , flavonoids, glycosides amino acids , carbohydrates , taninat terpenoids ,saponins.


The quantitative contents of flavonoids, sterols, phenolic compounds, and tannin were (45.3 ± 1.527, 18.033±0.233, 7.241 ± 1.076, 4.21 ±1.042) mg / 100 g respectively while the moisture contents of paln ginger (9 ± 1.41%), and (90± 1.41%) for the total solids. Values crude fiber and ash were estimated and found to be  (0.66 ± 0.2%), and (13.5%) were. Crude fat content of ginger was(4.2±0.2%) and (14.69 g / 100gm) protein and (92±2.12 mg/100gm) for carbohydrates , the energy value was (459.56) Kcal.100g-1 .The predominant  minerals were potassium10245µg.g-1, followed by sodium385 µg.g-1, calcium351 µg.g-1, iron122 µg.g-1, zinc45.9 µg.g-1, manganese6.24 µg.g-1, selenium 0.189 µg.g-1, copper 0.12 µg.g-1, coblt 0.05 µg.g-1, cadmium 0.002 µg.g-1 add ginger to contain vitamins such as A, E and concentrations in the order (29.70) mg.cm -3, (83.66) mg.cm-3. and (35.75)mg.100cm-3 from vit .
