Oregano

Oregano oil is a volatile oil extracted from the plant 'Oregano'. It is a light yellow oily liquid and is available all over the world. Human medicines and health care products based on this material have long been used in Europe and the United States as an antibacterial antiseptic preservative for food. It is also a feed additive approved for use in my country and most foreign countries (the European Union, etc.). The main components are phenolic compounds, of which: carvacrol accounts for about 80%; thymol accounts for about 8.7%; thymol accounts for about 2.5%; terpinene accounts for about 2.1%. Studies have found that phenolic compounds in plants have antibacterial effects. Among plants containing phenolic compounds, Origanum plants (oregano, thyme, etc.) have the highest content of carvacrol and thymol, and biosynthetic carvacrol and thymol are found in plants containing phenolic compounds. Levels of the precursors of phenol and thymol (gamma-pyrene and p-cumyl) were also high.

Chemical components of oregano extract

Oregano oil contains:

Carvacrol (2-methyl-5-isopropyl Phenol)----------------65-75%

Thymol Thymol (5-methyl-2-isopropylphenol)---- ---------------5-8%

Cymene p-Cymene (p-cymene) ---------- ------------3-5%

Terpinene g-Terpinene--------------------- ----------------3-5%

Oregano oil premix contains 10% oregano oil and is coated.

Chemical components of oregano extract

The whole plant of oregano can extract a volatile oil with aromatic flavor-oregano essential oil. Oregano also exerts its pharmacological effects. Mainly through oregano essential oil. The main chemical components of oregano essential oil are xanthophenol, P-cymene, thymol, and r-terpinene. The contents of these four chemical components vary greatly depending on geographical location, vokDu. D et al. (1993) reported that the contents of the four chemical components of oregano essential oil are related to latitude. Kokkini. reported by S et al. (1997). The essential oil extracted from oregano grown in Greece has a xanthophenol content of about 1.7%--69.6%, a P-cymene content of about 17.3%-51.3%, and a thymol content of about 0.2%--42.8%. The r-terpinene content is about 0.6%--3.6%. The essential oil extracted from oregano growing in northern Greece is rich in thymol (30.3%--42.8%); while the essential oil extracted from oregano in the south is rich in xanthinol ( 57.4%--9.6%). Among the four chemical components, xanthophyllol and thymol have the greatest antibacterial activity.

Oregano

Oregano oil 10% Oregano oil is a volatile oil extracted from oregano containing phenolic compounds. The main components of oregano oil are phenols and parsley. Phenol accounts for 79.6%, thymol accounts for 8.7%, thymol accounts for 2.5%, and terpinene accounts for 2.1%. Among them, carvacrol, thymol, and thymol have proven to have strong antibacterial activity, and their active ingredients have very It has strong surface activity and fat solubility and can quickly penetrate the cell membrane of pathogenic microorganisms, thus causing the death of pathogenic microorganisms due to water imbalance. In addition, carvacrol and thymol are active in the outer layer of intestinal epithelial cells and can accelerate intestinal The renewal rate of epithelial cells reduces the infection of intestinal epithelial cells by pathogens, enhances the ability to digest and absorb nutrients, and improves growth performance and feed utilization.

Main ingredients

Carvacrol is about 60%; thymol is about 8%; parasol is about 5%; a-syringene, 1-borneol, lithium The content of more than 30 organic compounds such as nathol, thymol, menthol and patchene is about 23%. Oregano oil is one of the feed drug additives approved by the Ministry of Agriculture of my country. It is safe, efficient, green and incompatible. Contraindicated pure natural traditional Chinese medicine additives with relatively high active ingredients.
