Makara Journal of Science

Black garlic or shallot are products of processed garlic and shallots obtained through a heating process conducted over a certain period. Black garlic/shallots have a mild aroma with a sweet and sour taste. The heating process causes chemical compound transition in the garlic, including acidity. In addition to the chemical process, the garlic’s color and component changes are due to the role of microorganisms during black garlic processing. However, the presence and function of such microorganisms have not been identified. Therefore, this research explores the black garlic’s microorganisms, their role in black garlic processing, and their relation to the total …

The Apiaceae family of plants contains over 3,500 species, many of which are used as food crops: vegetables (carrot, parsnip, celery, etc.), herbs (cilantro, fennel, dill, etc.), and spices (cumin, anise, caraway, etc.). Many spices have been shown to exhibit antimicrobial properties against both bacteria and fungi. We set out to determine if the Apiaceae spice extracts currently used in our lab for anticancer studies exhibit any antimicrobial properties. Ethanolic extracts were made from several Apiaceae seeds: Apium graveolens (celery), Cuminum cyminum (cumin), Anethum graveolens(dill), Foeniculum vulgare (fennel), Coriandrum satvium (coriander), Pimpinella ansium (anise), Trachyspermum ammi (ajwain), Carum carvi …
