“…Analogous glandular trichomes were found in P. regnelli (Pessini et al, ), P. mikanianum (Kunth) Steud (Duarte & Siebenrock, ), Piper lepturum var. lepturum (Machado et al, ) and P. amalago L. (Santos et al, ). Multicellular and uniseriate nonglandular trichomes, either short or long, shaped by about five cells, with acute apical cells have been mentioned in relation to several species of Piper (Duarte & Siebenrock, ; Gogosz et al, ; Machado et al, ; Raman et al, 2014; Santos et al, ).…”

“…The midrib, in cross section, was biconvex in shape, with prominent convexity on the abaxial side (Figure d). Concave–convex shape has been described in several species of Piper (Gogosz et al, ; Santos et al, ), as well flat‐convex (Raman et al, 2014). According to the literature, the midrib shape support the differentiation of species (Almeida et al, ; Wosch et al, ) as well happens with species of Piper .…”

“…Analogous pattern has been found in several species of Piper (Albiero et al, ; Duarte & Siebenrock, ; Pessini et al, ; Souza, Moscheta, & Oliveira, ). However, P. glabratum (Gogosz et al, ) and P. amalago (Santos et al, ) presented only one collateral vascular bundle in the center in the ground parenchyma. Secretory idioblasts with the same characteristics previously described were spread in the midrib.…”

Piper solmsianum C.DC., which is popularly known as pariparoba, is a shrub that measures 1-3 m in height and it inhabits areas with wet tropical soils. The objective of this study was to analyze the leaf and stem anatomy using light microscopy, scanning electron micrographs, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy in order to provide information for species identification. The anatomical profile showed the following main microscopic markers: hypostomatic leaf; hypodermis layer on both sides; pearl glands; biconvex midrib shape; five collateral vascular bundles in open arc with the central bundle larger than the others; circular stem shape; collateral vascular bundles arranged in two rings; sinuous sclerenchymatic sheath in the pith; secretory idioblasts; and starch grains in the mesophyll, in the ground parenchyma of the midrib, petiole, and in the stem; and six morphotypes of calcium oxalate crystals (styloids, cuneiform, tabular crystal rosettes, cuneiform crystal rosettes, elongated square dipyramids, as well as very elongated square dipyramids).

“…Estudos farmacognósticos de espécies de Piper são raros (Pessini et al 2003;Periyanayagam et al 2012;Santos et al 2015), não havendo na literatura dados sobre representantes da região amazônica. Como a avaliação macromorfológica e organoléptica são os primeiros passos para estabelecer a autenticidade botânica e o grau de pureza de matérias-primas vegetais medicinais, importante fatores para garantir segurança e eficácia (WHO 1998;Cheng et al 2014), as características macroscópicas e sensoriais reportadas aqui para as drogas vegetais de P. arboreum var.…”

RESUMOPiper arboreum Aubl. var. arboreum e P. tuberculatum Jacq. (Piperaceae), conhecidas como pimenta-longa, são comercializadas como produtos tradicionais fitoterápicos e, frequentemente, identificadas erroneamente, não havendo relatos sobre controle de qualidade dessas espécies. O objetivo do trabalho foi preparar e caracterizar drogas vegetais foliares e caulinares dessas espécies para estabelecer-lhes parâmetros de autenticidade botânica e grau de pureza para o controle de qualidade. Foram utilizados métodos padrões para o preparo e análises estrutural e físico-química das drogas vegetais. São caracteres diagnósticos macroscópicos para distinguir as drogas vegetais íntegras: tamanho, forma, cor, sabor, textura, características da superfície de fratura e da secção transversal e os padrões de venação foliar. São caracteres diagnósticos para distinguir as drogas vegetais pulverizadas: padrões de cutícula e cera epicuticular, tipos de tricoma e espessamento parietal dos elementos traqueais e a forma do hilo dos grãos de amido. Emergências são marcadores morfológicos chave para as drogas vegetais de P. tuberculatum. Os valores dos parâmetros físico-químicos foram similares nas drogas vegetais das espécies, exceto o de cinzas ácido-insolúveis que foi maior nas drogas vegetais caulinares de P. arboreum var. arboreum. As maiores concentrações de metais ocorreram nas drogas vegetais de P. arboreum var. arboreum. As concentrações mais elevadas foram de Al, Cu, Mn e V e as mais baixas de Cd, Co e Hg. Os resultados obtidos poderão ser utilizados como parâmetros de controle de qualidade para as drogas vegetais de ambas as espécies. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: Pimenta-longa, Produtos tradicionais fitoterápicos, Farmacognosia, Metais tóxicos, ICP-OES. Pharmacognostical characterization of Piper arboreum var. arboreum and P. tuberculatum (Piperaceae)ABSTRACT Piper arboreum Aubl. var. arboreum and P. tuberculatum Jacq. (Piperaceae), both known as "pimenta-longa", are frequently misidentified. Despite the fact that both species are sold as traditional phytotherapeutic products, there are no reports on their quality control. The aim of this study was to prepare and characterize leaf and stem herbal drugs of both species using standard methods aiming to establish parameters for botanical authentication and purity degree for their quality control. Size, shape, color, taste, texture, fracture surface and transection characteristics, and leaf venation patterns are macroscopic diagnostic characters useful to distinguish the herbal drugs when they are not powdered. The following characters are useful for diagnostic purposes of the powdered herbal drugs: cuticular and epicuticular wax patterns, types of trichomes, and wall thickening of the tracheary elements, and shape of the hilum of the starch grains. Emergences are key morphological markers for P. tuberculatum herbal drugs. Physicochemical parameter values were similar in herbal drugs of both species, except acid-insoluble ash value which was higher in the P. arboreum var. arboreum stem her...

RESUMO:Tanacetum vulgare L., conhecida popularmente como catinga-de-mulata, é utilizada na medicina tradicional como vermífugo, digestivo e emenagogo. Objetivou-se analisar a morfoanatomia de folhas e caules dessa espécie medicinal com vistas ao controle da qualidade. Foram utilizadas técnicas usuais de microscopia de luz e eletrônica de varredura. As folhas são compostas, pinatissectas e anfiestomáticas. Tricomas tectores flageliformes simples e glandulares capitados são observados. A nervura central tem formato biconvexo, o pecíolo é côncavo-convexo, a ráque é plano-convexa e o caule é arredondado. Feixes vasculares colaterais, calotas de fibras perivasculares e colênquima lamelar estão presentes na folha e no caule. Os caracteres morfoanatômicos evidenciados contribuem na identificação do táxon e fornecem subsídios farmacobotânicos para o controle da qualidade de drogas vegetais e fitoterápicos.Palavras-chave: Asteraceae, Caatinga-de-mulata, Controle da qualidade, Morfoanatomia. ABSTRACT: Pharmacobotanical analysis of leaf and stem of Tanacetum vulgare (L.).Tanacetum vulgare L., popularly known as tansy, is used in traditional medicine as a vermifuge, digestive and emmenagogue. This study aimed to analyze the morphoanatomical leaves and stems of this medicinal plant in order to control the quality. Usual techniques of light and scanning electron microscopy were used. The leaves are composed, pinatissect and amphistomatic. Simple and flagelliform non-glandular trichomes and capitate glandular trichomes are observed. The midrib has biconvex shape, the petiole is concavo-convex, the rachis is plano-convex, and the stem is rounded. Collateral vascular bundles, perivascular fiber caps and laminar collenchyma are encountered in the leaves and stems. Evidenced the morphological and anatomical features contribute to the identification of the taxon and provide pharmacobotanical data for the quality control of herbal drugs.
