| description | India is the largest producer in the world of black pepper and it is the center of origin for <i>Piper</i>. The present study gives a comparative account of the chemical composition of the <i>Piper nigrum</i> and its wild putative parent the <i>P. trichostachyon</i>. Microextractions were performed and the quantification of six phenolic compounds (namely epicatechin, gallic acid, catechol, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, and catechin), piperine from leaves, petioles, and the fruits of both the species, were accomplished using the RP-UFLC system. The polyphenols (phenolic, flavonoid) and their antioxidant activities were also estimated. Among the six phenolic compounds studied, only three were detected and quantified. The polyphenol content correlating to the antioxidant activities was higher in the <i>P. trichostachyon,</i> whereas the piperine content was 108 times greater in the <i>P. nigrum</i> fruits. The <i>Piper trichostachyon</i> comparatively showed a higher content of polyphenols. The microextractions reduced the solvent consumption, the quantity of the plant material, and the amount of time used for the extraction. The first report on the TPC, TF, and the antioxidant activity of the <i>P. trichostachyon</i> has been described, and it also forms a scientific basis for its use in traditional medicine. The petioles of both species are good sources of phenolic compounds. A quantitative chemical analysis is a useful index in the identification and comparison of the species. |
