Physico ChemicalTotal Ash: Not more than 4 per cent; Appendix 2.2.3 Acid-insoluble ash: Not more than 1 per cent; Appendix 2.2.4 Alcohol-soluble extractive: Not less than 18 per cent; Appendix 2.2.7 Water-soluble extractive: Not less than 17 per cent; Appendix 2.2.8 Loss on drying: Not more than 10 per cent; Appendix 2.2.10 pH (10 % aqueous solution): 4.0 to 5.5; Appendix 3.3 Assay: Not less than 0.047 per cent of piperine when assayed by the following method. Dissolve 1.0 mg of piperine in a mixture of methanol: chloroform (1: 1) and make up the volume to 10 ml in another volumetric flask. Apply 1; 2; 6; 10; 14; 18 nl of solution on TLC plate and develop the plate to 5.5 cm using n-hexane: acetone (7: 3) as mobile phase. After development; dry the plate in a current of hot air and scan in the TLC scanner at a wavelength of 338 nm. Note the peak area and prepare the calibration curve by plotting peak area vs concentration of piperine. Extract accurately weighed 2 g powder of Vatas in 75 ml of alcohol in Soxhlet apparatus for 6 h. Filter the extract while hot and dry completely and weigh. Take 100 mg in volumetric flask and dissolve in a mixture of methanol: chloroform (1: 1) and make up the volume to 25 ml. Apply 25 nl of the test solutions on TLC plate. Develop; dry and scan the plate as described in the proceeding paragraph for calibration curve of piperine. Record the area under the curve for a peak corresponding to piperine in the test solution. Calculate the amount of piperine in the test solution from the calibration curve of piperine.
