Abstract
Background: Cardamom is Queen of Spices belonging to Zingiberaceae family. The present study to reveals the comparative metabolomic profile of the two different types of cardamom such as Cardamom elettaria and Amomum subulatum. Methods: Physical parameters and chemical parameters were screened in both species. The essential oil was extracted by using Clevenger apparatus and analysed the volatile profile by GC-MS studies. Results: Capsule of C. elettaria was observed to dominant in bulk density and volatile oil content whereas A. subulatum is greater in size and shape. Oil of C. elettaria showed the good ascent of Optical rotation (+29.1), Specific gravity (1.4620), refractive index (0.927), aroma and taste. In C. elettaria and A. subulatum the terpinyl acetate, geranyl acetate, and myrcene were present in high level. As well, 1,8-cineole, pinene, 3-carene, and terpineol are the primary differentiators in both seeds with diverse therapeutic effects. Conclusion: The physico-chemical characteristics of C. elettaria and A. subulatum were contrasted in this work. α-terpinyl acetate is a lead molecule in C. elettaria. 1,8-cineoleare is rich in both essential oils. Future researchers and flavourists can use this study to improve the scent and therapeutic elements of drug repurposing.
