TY - JOUR TT - A study on piperine, active compound of black pepper AU - Gökalp, Faik PY - 2016 DA - October DO - 10.21541/apjes.66230 JF - Academic Platform - Journal of Engineering and Science JO - APJES PB - Akademik Perspektif Derneği WT - DergiPark SN - 2147-4575 SP - 0 EP - 0 VL - 4 IS - 3 N2 - Piperine, the most important compound of black pepper, is used for treating several diseases such as breast, colon, rectal, and stomach cancer. In this study, the thermodynamical properties of this molecule in blood were obtained by using DFT and HF at the level of B3LYP/6-31+g(d,p). The results of calculations indicate that Piperine is less stable. So, ıt can react easily with radicalic forms and decrease their harmful effects and damage to the cell structures. It can dissolves in blood and reaches every tissues of the body because of the high polarity.
