The major alkaloids in piper species traded in South Indian markets as the Ayurvedic drug, Pippali, have been studied using a rapid HPLC-based method. Piper longum is the accepted botanical source of Pippali. Bengaluru and Chennai markets contained mixtures of closely related species, Piper peepuloides and Piper sylvaticum. Chemical analysis showed that these sam-ples do not contain the alkaloid piperine present in Piper longum fruits. Market samples from Trissur were identified as Piper longum and piperine was detected as one of the major alkaloids. All the samples contained pellitorine, another alkaloid reported in most peppers of the genus Piper. The two types of Pippali can therefore be easily differentiated on the basis of their HPLC profiles.Keywords

The pippali of Ayurveda botanically known as Piper longum L. is one of the economically valued plants, the fruits and ischolar_mains of which are used widely in the preparation of traditional herbal medicines as well as in various modern drugs. The Ayurvedic medicine system has been heavily dependent on its use since time immemorial. Dried or powdered forms of the fruits and ischolar_mains are sold at Rs 350 to 3000 per kg, at the national and international markets. Supply of the raw materials is still dependent on the wild source as the existing cultivation and management practices are not adequate to fulfill the demand. If utilized, it may become one of the most important components of agroforestry systems in the tropical and subtropical warm humid climate of the country that may generate up to approximately Rs 130,000 as an additional income to the farmers.Keywords
