Piper is the representative genus of family Piperaceae. Piper species are pan-tropical in distribution and found in both the hemispheres. As the king of all spices, black pepper, Piper nigrum, led to the global expeditions culminating in the discovery of India and the new world. Piper species have been reported to possess various pharmacological activities such as insecticidal, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, antiplatelet, anti-hypertensive, antithyroid, antitumor activities and hepatoprotective properties. Botanical authentication of the plants of Piper species is difficult because of the morphological similarity among the species. This book describes ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole electrospray tandem mass spectrometry in multiple reactions monitoring (MRM) mode to study the quantitative variation of thirteen bioactive markers in different plant parts of ten Piper species.Features: Collection of Ayurvedic features and scientific evidence of the most important medicinal plants of Piper species. Describes chemical signatures for identification of Piper species. Provides easy-to-use analytical procedure for quality control of Piper species and its products.

Active botanical ingredients are a prime requirement for herbal formulations and discovering a drug is all about integration of science disciplines. In recent decades there has been a growing interest in treating wounds and diseases using traditional remedies based on local herbs, combined with chemical advances. Although this has led to the development of new bioactive ingredients from plants, there has been little success in terms of clinical trials and post-marketing studies to comply with FDA guidelines. Plants have been used as a source of medicine throughout history and continue to serve as the basis for many pharmaceuticals used today. However, despite the modern pharmaceutical industry being founded on botanical medicine, synthetic approaches to drug discovery have now become standard. Science-driven translational discovery and botanical development has created a new reality, leading to enormous changes in strategies, technologies and the disciplines involved, which have been embraced by the pharmaceutical and biotech industries. This book gathers scientific expertise and traditional knowledge to promote the discovery and development of new formulations and drugs based on active ingredients and to provide guidance on taking these to clinical trials. It discusses major topics, such as how the phytochemical composition of many plants has changed over time due to factors like cultivation, which can have both positive and negative effects on the levels of bioactive compounds. It also explores the importance of plants as a valuable source of therapeutic compounds as a result of their vast biosynthetic capacity, and classifies them according to their intended use, safety and regulatory status. Further, the book offers insights into the regulatory aspects of botanical products, which is an important issue when considering standardization and quality assessment, and also examines the commercial aspects of plant-derived medications and their proven role in the treatment of chronic diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, pain, asthma, and other associated conditions. Given its scope, this book is a valuable tool for botanists, natural product chemists, pharmacologists and microbiologists involved in the study of phytochemicals for drug discovery.

This book focuses on the botany, phytochemistry, pharmacology, clinical trials and future prospects of Catharanthus roseus, commonly known as ‘Sadabahar’. It explores botanical leads derived from various species of Catharanthus, emphasizing their significance in today’s context.Several species of Catharanthus are commonly used in traditional medicine and herbal formulations, particularly for cancer treatment, due to their bioactive compounds. The medicinal properties of these species stem from bisindole alkaloids like vincristine and vinblastine, which are known for their anticancer effects and are utilized in chemotherapy. This book explores the importance of separation techniques for the screening, identification, characterization, and quantification of both major and minor alkaloids, flavonoids, phenolics, and volatile compounds in Catharanthus species, employing methods such as HPLC and HPLC/UPLC coupled with mass spectrometry. The chapters include detailed insights into the molecular and pharmacological aspects associated with Catharanthus, ensuring that readers can see the plant’s central role in drug discovery and develop an understanding of the molecular complexities involved in drug development. This book builds on outstanding research contributions from leading scientists and institutions to provide a comprehensive overview, extending beyond the individual papers discussed in its chapters to foster a global perspective.The book aims to engage the scientific community in appreciating the critical role of biodiversity and the pharmacological significance of Catharanthus. This will not only facilitate academic learning but also serve as a thorough resource for researchers and pharmaceutical companies globally.
