All the four species yielded significantly different essential oil. The mean essential oil content of 0.343 (ml) was obtained from 1mm, 5mm, 10mm, 15 mm, 20mm, whole leave, respectively. Particle size of leaf was found to have significant influence on oil yield. The highest mean essential oil content of 0.487 was obtained from steaming, ultrasound treating, microwaving, respectively.
The GC-MS analysis for composition of the essential oils found 44 and 36 volatile compounds in the essential oils from non-treated and ultrasound-treated leaves, respectively. In addition, α - Phellandrene was found as the most dominant compound in the essential oil samples (45.9%) followed by α-Terpinolene (9. Thus the use of ultrasound treating not only affected the antimicrobial activity but also impacted the composition of essential oil from turmeric leaves.

xii Chapter 1: INTRODUCTION 1. Introduction Turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) is a plant that has been grown very popular in Vietnam and some Asian countries for a long time to be used as a medicine and also in food. The rhizome of the turmeric plant has been utilized as a material for functional foods; however, other components of the plant, such as the leaves, which are typically discarded as a waste product, have their own unique applications due to the presence of curcumin and other bioactive components. Furthermore, turmeric leaves have a huge volume and surface area, both of which contribute to the plant's exceptional value for use in industrial applications as a rich source of food (Choi & Lee.
Studies have been conducted to explore the physicochemical properties of the turmeric leaf extract in order to illustrate the extract's functional effects, which include whitening, cosmeceutical, skin immunity, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant activities (Kim, Lim, & Lee. These effects are mostly caused by curcumin, which is found in turmeric leaves, as well as phenolic chemicals and flavonoids. In Vietnam, although there have been many studies related to the extraction of active ingredients from turmeric rhizome, there has been no research on extraction of the beneficial compounds from turmeric leaves. Therefore, after harvesting turmeric, almost all the leaves are discarded.
Turmeric leaves are not employed in industrial domains despite their functional characteristics due to a lack of safety and legal basis and turmeric leaf research is poor and restricted to explain their properties and functions. Because of these factors, turmeric leaves are only utilized as feed for stock in certain regions and disposed as a waste with vast disposal costs (Choi & Lee.
