Standardization, Development and Validation of Spectrophotometric Method for Estimation of Piperine in Ayurvedic Vati Formulation

Indo American Journal of Pharmaceutical Research, 2013

Objectives: A new simple spectrophotometric method for simultaneous estimation of Embelin and Gallic Acid in Vidang, Harade and Vidangadi Churna was investigated. The λmax of Embelin and Gallic Acid were found to be 341 and 258 nm. Method: The graphical absorbance ratio method was used for simultaneous estimation of Embelin and Gallic acid in Vidangadi Churna, and the Isoabsorbtive point for simultaneous estimation of both the drug were found to be 307.5 nm. The method obeys Beers law in the concentration range from 2-12 μg/ml. The correlation coefficient was found to be 0.9973 for Embelin and 0.998 for Gallic Acid. The method was validated as per ICH guidelines. Results: The result of estimation of Embelin in Vidang, Gallic acid in Harade and both in Vidangadi Churna were found to be 1.05 %, 1.04 %, and 1.85. The proposed method was validated for linearity, accuracy and application for assay as per ICH guidelines. Conclusion: The study showed good reproducibility and recovery with % RSD less than 2. So, the proposed method was found to be simple, specific, precise, and accurate. Hence it can be applied for simultaneous estimation of Embelin and Gallic Acid in various Ayurvedic Ch urna formulations.

Validated high-performance thin-layer chromatography method for determination of Piperine in herbal extracts and pharmaceutical dosage form

Journal of Pharmacognosy and Phytochemistry, 2018

Herbal medicines widely used in health-care in both developed as well as developing nations. Herbals are usually considered harmless and ever supplementary being consumed by people devoid of prescription. Though, some of them leads to health troubles, some are not effective and some might be interact with supplementary drugs. Consequently, standardization of herbal formulations is essential in order to estimate the quality of drugs, based on the concentration of their active principles. In the present study, Shatavari based Galactogogue, herbal formulation manufactured by Fredun Healthcare Pvt. Ltd., Mumbai is used for standardization. The HPTLC method was validated according to ICH guidelines and shown to be specific, linear, repeatable and accurate, within the established ranges. Statistical analysis proves that the method is reproducible and selective. This method can be used for the quantitative determination of piperine in herbal extract and its formulations.

Trikatu churna is a digestive tonic for the assimilation of other foods in the body. It is a rejuvenator and stimulant and regulates kapha and vata. Thus plays an important role in treatment of variety of conditions 1-3 .

Pharmacognostical, Physico-chemical and Phytochemical Evaluation for Standardization of 3 Piper species Used in Ayurvedic Medicine

Asian Journal of Pharmacognosy, 2019

The plant species of the family Piperaceae contain valuable natural compounds. Among the genera of Piperaceae family the Piper is an important genus which consists of 700 plant species growing in the different parts of the world. Many plants of this Piper genus are the essential medicinal plants used in various traditional systems of medicine. Among those plants fruits of Piper nigrum L., fruits and root of Piper longum L. and stems and roots of Piper retrofractum Vahl are commonly used in the Sri Lankan traditional system and Ayurveda system of medicine. Piper species have demonstrated strong efficacy against both malignant and non-malignant diseases. Piperine is a valuable alkaloid found in the fruits and roots of P. longum (long pepper), P. nigrum (black pepper) and stems of P. retrofractum. The main objective of this study was to establish the physico-chemical, phytochemical and pharmacognostical profiles of P. longum, P. nigrum and P. retrofractum in order to develop standard parameters. Standardization parameters such as ash, extractive values, heavy metals and qualitative phytochemical analysis were performed. Analysis of TLC and HPTLC fingerprint patterns of methanolic extract of 3 plants were also done. The results of ash and extractable values were comparable with the results in Ayurveda pharmacopeia of India. Phytochemical analysis reveals the presence of saponins, alkaloids, tannins, phenols, flavanoids, terpinoids, cardiac glycosides and steroids. Heavy metal concentrations were found to be within the limits. Results of these physico-chemical parameters, phytochemical, macroscopic and microscopic analysis can be used to assess the quality and detection of any adulteration for P. nigrum, P. longum and P. retrofractum.

High-performance liquid chromatography method for estimating piperine in herbal tea

INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC AND PRACTICAL CONFERENCE “TECHNOLOGY IN AGRICULTURE, ENERGY AND ECOLOGY” (TAEE2022)

Herbal Tea is a polyherbal blend that is an Ayurvedic formulation. In this study, a quantitative HPLC technique for estimating piperine in a laboratory formulation of Herbal Tea was established, with detection in the ultraviolet region at 342.5 nm. Three batches of Herbal Tea formulation, HT-I, HT-II, and HT-III were prepared in the lab and their percent (w/w) piperine concentration was determined. Piperine concentrations in Piper longum (Pippali) and Piper nigrum were observed to be 1.38±0.39% (w/w) and 3.57±0.35% (w/w) respectively (Marica). Piperine concentration was reported to be 0.66±0.06, 0.71±0.09, and 0.69±0.03 percent (w/w) in HT-I, HT-II, and HT-III, respectively. The piperine LODs and LOQs were 0.021035 mg/ml and 0.051562 mg/ml, respectively.
