INTRODUCTION OF TANNINS Tanning are defined as complex substance that usually occur as the mixture of polyphenol that are very difficult to separate. Since they do not crystal The term tannins First used by “ Seguin in 1976” . Tannins are present in the aerial parts, E.g., Leaves, Fruits, Barks or Stem.
PROPERTIES OF TANNINS It is soluble in water It is soluble in alcohol & acetone It is not colorless.
Occurrence and Distribution of tannins Occurrence- They consist high molecular weight and low molecular weight group of very complex chemical of plant. They are not found in animals Distribution- They are distributed in different part of plant Ex- leaf, bark, seed etc.
Isolation of tannins Taken tannin containing crude drug Convert in powder form the powder drug treated with ether Ether extract, solvent recover & dried room temperature Dried drug again treated with 0.1% w/v NaOH aqueous solvent of base is neutralized with 0.1% v/v HCL Cont ….. Note- 0.1% w/v NaOH= 0.1gm NaOH dissolve in 100ml water. 0.1%v/v HCl= 0.1ml cont. HCl add in 100ml water.
golden yellow color precipitate aquas phase (remove) precipitate washed with ice water golden yellow precipitate dry for one hour at 105 ℃ temperature with the help of hot air oven recrystallized in chloroform then filter the golden yellow tannins
IDENTIFICATION OF TANNINS Gelatin test- Taken tannins solution + aqueous solution of gelatin then add NaCl it gives white color in the presences of tannins 2. Vanillin HCL- 1gm drug is treated with vanillin HCL it give pink or red color
THERAPEUTICS ACTIVITY AND PHARMACEUTICAL APPLICATION OF TANNINS It is used as antioxidant It is used as anti tumor Used in viral disease Used in ulcer disease It is used in manufacturing of Glacial acetic acid It is used in aids Treatment in toxicity
