6. Taitreya Samhita, which belongs to the later Vedic
period (3000 BC), mentioned use of cardamom on
the occasion of a marriage ceremony.
The ancient Indian Ayurvedic texts, Charaka
Samhita and Susrutha Samhita, (1400 - 600 BC)
mentioned cardamom on many occasions
(Mahindru, 1982; Ravindran, 2002).

12. BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Fruits are ellipsoidal
or almost spherical,
fleshy when green,
and leathery when
dry.
In the genus Elettaria…..
The flowers are on long-stalked panicles and
made up of multi flowered spirals.
Flowers are about 30 to 35 mm long, white
or pale green, with the central lip streaked
blue or violet.
(Govindarajan et al., 1982) 12
13. Fruits are three-
chambered, filled with
many seeds, and
dehiscent.
In the genus Amomum…..
Short-stalked or sensile
flowers in a thickly-flowered,
conically shaped.
The fruits grow in loose or
dense clusters, and are thick
fleshed which, on drying, forms
a leathery fruit coat.
(Govindarajan et al., 1982) 13
14. Dried fruit of cardamom contains steam-volatile oil, fixed
(fatty) oil, pigments, proteins, cellulose, pentosans,
sugars, starch, silica, calcium oxalate and minerals
The major constituent of the seed is starch (up to 50%)
while in the fruit husk it is crude fiber (up to 31%).
Cardamom contains 2.8-6.2% volatile oil, approximately
10% protein and 1-10% fixed oil.
(Senthil and Bhat, 2011)
CHEMICAL COMPOSITIONs OF CARDAMOM
14
15. The volatile oil is composed mainly of 1,8-cineole (20-
60%) and α-terpinyl acetate (20-55%).
(Guenther, 1975; Padmakumari et al., 2010)
The aroma and flavor of cardamom are obtained from the
essential oils.
It also contains α-terpineol, myrcene, limonene,
menthone, ß-phellandrene, sabinene and heptane.
15
16. Acid constituents of the volatile oil include acetic, butyric,
decanoic, dodecanoic, citronellic, geranic, hexanoic,
heptanoic, nerylic, and perillic acids.
16
(Padmakumari et al., 2010)
The fixed oil mainly consists of waxes containing n-alkanes
and sterols, including β-sitostenone, stigmasterol and β-
sitosterol.
17. The main factors that determines the quality of
cardamom are the content and compositions of volatile
oil, which governs the odour and flavour
(Leela et al., 2008)
Compositions of oils vary, depending on types, variety,
region and age of product. (e.g., Mysore and Malabar).
17
Oils containing a low content of cineole but high
content of terpinyl acetate are considered to be of
superior quality for flavor applications.
18. Chemical constituents of essential oil of cardamom seed powder (Percent)
(Padmakumari et al., 2010) 18
24. MEDICINAL PROPERTIES
Antimicrobial activity
The terpenoid constituents are responsible for the antifungal and
antibacterial effects.
(Hirasa and Takemasa, 1998)
Antimicrobial effects of seed extract of cardamom was found on
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Mycobacterium smegmatis, Klebsiella
pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella
typhimurium, Enterococcus faecalis, Micrococcus luteus and Candida
albicans.
(Agaoglu et al., 2006)
24
25. Anti-carcinogenic Activity
500 μg/ml is the optimum concentration which inhibit
MCF-7 cells maximally.
Black cardamom showed anticancer activity against
Michigan Cancer Foundation-7 (MCF-7) breast cancer
cell.
(Kaur et al., 2013)
25
26. Anti-Inflammatory Activity
Cardamom oil
administered at 175 and
280 μl/kg of body weight
inhibited the growth of
carrageenan-induced paw
edema in rats by 69.2%
and 86.4%, respectively.
The anti-inflammatory activity
of cardamom oil is comparable
to that of indomethacin.
(Al-Zuhair et al., 1996) 26
27. Anti-ulcerogenic activity
The petroleum ether soluble
extract from cardamom seeds was
screened for aspirin-induced anti-
ulcerogenic activity in rats.
The petroleum ether soluble
extract inhibited lesions by
nearly 100% at 12.5 mg/kg.
(Jamal et al., 2006)
27
28. Antihypertensive activity/Blood Pressure
Lowering Activity
At a dose of 3g, it significantly decreases diastolic
pressure.
In hypertensive patients, without significantly altering blood lipids
and fibrinogen level, cardamom enhances fibrinolysis and
improves antioxidant status.
(Verma et al., 2009)
28
29. Cigarette De-addiction
Smoking of cigarette can be
minimize by eating few seeds of
cardamom and slowly the smoker
may give up the chronic addiction
to chain smoking.
It can also be used to ease
cigarette addiction.
(Peter, 2001)
29
30. Oral health
The most effective remedies against
halitosis is chewing the seed of
cardamom.
If mouth wash by adding few
drops of essential oil in water, it
disinfects the oral cavity of all
germs.
(Aneja and Joshi, 2009)
(Nanasombat and Lohasupthawee, 2005)
30
31. Digestive and Stomachic
Cardamom is good digestive due to
essential oil.
Proper secretion of gastric juices,
acids and bile in the stomach is
maintain by this oil
(Jesylne et al., 2016)
31
32. Stimulant
(Jesylne et al., 2016)
In cases of depression or
fatigue, essential oil boosts our
spirits.
It maintain proper metabolic action
throughout the body by
stimulating the secretion of various
enzymes and hormones, gastric
juices and circulation.
32
34. FORMS OF CARDAMOM
Cardamom seeds
(Purseglove et al., 1981)
• There are 4 forms of cardamom:
34
Cardamom powder
Cardamom oil
Cardamom oleoresin
35. • Cardamom seeds are
obtained by decorticating
capsules.
• Normally the ratio of seeds
to husk is 70:30.
• Good quality seeds will be
black to dark brown in colour
Cardamom seeds
(Purseglove et al., 1981) 35
36. • It gives the maximum flavour
to the food products.
• However, rapid loss of aroma
occurs during storage.
• Hence the powder needs more
protection than whole
capsules or seeds.
Cardamom powder
36
37. • It is distilled from powdered
seeds of cardamom.
• Steam distillation is the common
method employed for the
production of oil.
(Lewis et al., 1967)
Cardamom oil
37
38. Cardamom oleoresin
(Govindarajan et al., 1982)
Volatile oil is obtained by steam or hydro-
distillation while the resin is obtained by
solvent extraction.
Oleoresin is made up of two components,
viz., the volatile oil and resin.
Volatile oil represents the aroma while the
resin is made up of non-volatile matter like,
colour, fat, pungent constituents, waxes etc.
38
39. USES OF CARDAMOM
It is added to
massage oils and
lotions, as well as
soaps, detergents,
and perfumes.
Sweets
Bakery products
Flavored pickles

69. ADULTERATION ISSUES
Decorticated seeds can be adulterated with seeds from
lower qualities, and also with seeds of large cardamom, as
they are of similar shape, size and colour.
Small pebbles, Orange seeds, unroasted coffee seeds and
powdered cardamom hulls in cardamom seed powder will
be added.
(Dhanya and Sasikumar, 2010)
69
70. Cereal and pulse flours and extracted ginger have been
reported as adulterants.
These can be detected using microscopy by the very
different size and structure of the starch granules.
Size of starch grains:
Cardamom: 2-4 μ
Cereals : 5-20 μ
(Dhanya and Sasikumar, 2010) 70
The seed coat surface of true cardamom has clear
furrows and ridges, the large cardamom has almost a
smooth surface.
71. 71
Phenolics and volatiles content of true cardamom are different than
that of husk and black cardamom. Differentiation of these can be
one of the mean for detection of adulteration
Rf value of Phenolics (by paper chromatography).
o Seed : 0.95 (Yellow spot)
o Husk : 0.1 (Blue spot)
Rf value of Volatiles (by TLC)
o Black cardamom : 0.59 (Violet spot)
o True cardamom : No spot
(Dhanya and Sasikumar, 2010)
Adulterations with seeds from large cardamoms will show
higher 1,8-cineole and terpene
Determine by gas or thin-layer chromatography.
72. CONCLUSION
• Cardamom is known as 'Queen of Spices'.
• The whole, decorticated seeds, and fully ground into
powder forms of cardamom are used as flavouring
agent in dairy and food industry.
• It is also used in cosmetics, lotions, ointments for
healthy skin cell functioning, insect repellent, perfumes
etc.
• Though cardamom has both flavouring as well as
antimicrobial properties, there are only few reports
available in literature on these aspect mainly focusing
on sensory properties of food products incorporated
with cardamom.
