Turmeric, the dried yellow rhizome of Curcuma longa, is a common oriental spice that gives curry dishes their characteristic yellowish color and is used in Indian and Thai cooking. The active ingredient in turmeric is curcumin, which is approximately 2% by weight of the root of turmeric. We have developed two simple procedures for isolation of curcumin from turmeric, making this a new and interesting natural product isolation experiment.
