Specifications

Garlic has been distilled at high temperatures to extract the oil, which is mixed with vegetable or soya

oil and made into capsules or mixed with tabletting agents and made into tablets. Essential oil contains allyl-propyldisulphide , diallyl disulphide and tri- sulfides are the principal constituents.

Garlic Oil is derived from the crushed bulbs of garlic, Allium sativum Linn. They have a powerful and obnoxious odour due to the presence of disulphides. The bulbs contain 0.06% to 0.1% of volatile oil whose active constituents are propyl /-disulphide, alliin and allicin. The yellow oil of garlic is a valuable flavouring agent in perfumery, as insect repellant. Allicin present in volatile oil is a powerful antibacterial.
