ABSTRACT
Pippali Rasayana, an Ayurvedic formulation known for its rejuvenating properties, was
subjected to Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis to identify its
chemical constituents. The analysis was carried out using a GC-MS system equipped with a
non-polar capillary column, coupled with a mass spectrometer. The sample preparation
involved extraction of Pippali Rasayana in a suitable solvent followed by evaporation to obtain
the extract. GC-MS analysis revealed the presence of diverse chemical compounds including
alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids, and fatty acids. Major compounds identified included
piperine, sesquiterpenes, and volatile oils known for their pharmacological activities such as
antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and immunomodulatory effects. This study provides valuable
insights into the chemical composition of Pippali Rasayana, supporting its traditional use and
highlighting its potential therapeutic benefits in modern medicine.
