Garlic is an herbaceous, perennial plant of Mediterranean origin Its stalk can reach lengths of 1 m (39 in.) The plant exhibits fat, keeled leaves and is terminated by an umbellated fower cluste


Extractives and their physically modified derivatives such as tinctures, concretes, absolutes, essential oils, oleoresins, terpenes, terpene-free fractions, distillates, residues, etc., obtained from Allium sativum, Liliaceae.


Garlic (Allium sativum) is an herbal drug with references to medicinal properties that date back thousands of years. Of all the herbal remedies available to consumers, garlic is probably the most extensively researched.Garlic contains a key component, alliin or S-methyl-lcysteine sulfoxide. Additionally, methiin (methylcysteine sulfoxide), cycloalliin, several γ-L-glutamyl-S-alkyl-Lcysteines, and alkyl alkanethiosulfinates are present. The tissues also contain enzymes (alliinase, peroxidase, myrosinase), as well as additional sulfur-containing compounds, ajoene, and other minor components.Garlic itself has the highest sulfur content of all of the Allium species. When the garlic clove is crushed, the enzyme alliinase is released, and alliin is converted to allicin. Allicin gives garlic its characteristic odor and is believed to be the pharmacologically active ingredient from the herb. Alliinase will not survive the acidic environment of the stomach, so enteric-coated tablets are used. Garlic is most often studied for its lipid-lowering and antithrombotic effects. A cholesterol-lowering effect is well documented in both animals and humans. Garlic lowers serum cholesterol, triglycerides, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL).

Garlic oil Use and Manufacturing

Methods of Manufacturing

It is obtained by crushing the bulbs of Allium sativum, a perennial perennial herb of the Liliaceae family, and immersing them in water (1:7) (50-60°C), fermenting for 3h, and then distilling for 0.5-2h. The yield can be increased from the conventional 0.16% to 0.52%.

Uses

It is used as an insecticide and fungicide in agriculture, and also used in feed, food and medicine. As feed additives have the following functions: (1) increase the flavor of broilers, turtles. Adding garlicin to the feed of chickens or turtles can make the flavor of chickens and turtles stronger. (2) Improve the survival rate of animals. Garlic has the functions of solution, sterilization, disease prevention and treatment. Adding 0.1% of allicin in the feed of chickens, pigeons and other animals can increase the survival rate by 5% to 15%. (3) Increase appetite. Allicin can increase gastric juice secretion and gastrointestinal motility, stimulate appetite and promote digestion. Adding 0.1% allicin preparation to the feed can enhance the palatability of the feed. Antibacterial effect: Allicin can inhibit the growth of dysentery bacillus and typhoid bacillus, and it can obviously inhibit and kill staphylococcus and pneumococcus


garlic oil is considered a healing oil with bacteriostatic and bactericidal action. It is incorporated into skin care formulations for skin healing and to aid in clearing problems such as eczema and acne.
