3. Discovery of curcumin

Curcumin is the active ingredient of the dietary spice turmeric and is extracted from the rhizomes of C. longa, a plant in the Zingiberaceaefamily. It was first discovered about two centuries ago when Vogel and Pelletier reported the isolation of a “yellow coloring matter” from rhizomes of C. longa and named it curcumin. It is characterized by Milobedeska et al and first synthesized by Lampe et al.
