Abstract

Solvent fractionation, crystallization of pepper oleoresin and pungency evaluation by threshold methods has indicated that mother liquor has compounds other than piperine. Further study with argentation-TLC showed the presence of a compound which has only a fourth of the pungency of piperine. The coloured compounds in a total extract of pepper contribute 3 to 5% to the absorption at 342 nm. It has also been shown that spectrophotometric method could be conveniently used on a single peppercorn.
