[Pharmacognostic identification of medicinal Asteropyrum plants in China].

OBJECTIVE: To offer evidences for quality control of medicinal Asteropyrum plants. METHOD: Pharmacognostic studies were made through field collection, market investigation, document utilization, comparative morphology and histology. RESULT: The shape and properties, microscopic characteristics in root, rhizome, leaves were worked out. CONCLUSION: Asteropyrum can be distinguished from close relative Coptis plants by microscopic and histology characteristics. Two species in Asteropyrum can also be identified by microscopic and histology characteristics, and the morphological and histology characteristics can be used as evidences for quality control of medicinal Asteropyrum plants.

[Conservation of endangered species resources of Tibetan medicine in China].

OBJECTIVE: To further investigate and discuss the cause of species endangerment, the status and present problem of conservation of traditional Tibetan medicine in China. METHOD: Previous relevant investigations and literatures were summed up in the field. The present situation of conservation of traditional Tibetan medicine was analyzed. RESULT: The status of endangered resources, cause of species endangerment, the conserving status and conserving measures etc were elaborated. The classification was made and suggestion of species conservation of traditional Tibetan medicine were put forward. CONCLUSION: The endangered species conservation of traditional Tibetan medicine was carried out by building protective area of endangered species resources and plant garden, setting up germplasm bank, developing the domestication and cultivation of Tibetan medicinal herbs most in use, strengthening the investigation and study of endangered species, launching exchange and cooperation of conservation techniques on endangered species, enhancing the protective awareness of endangered species traditional Tibetan medicine etc. By so doing we can facilitate the sustainable development of traditional Tibetan medicine in China.

[Application of pattern recognition to quality assessment of the traditional Chinese medicine].

OBJECTIVE: To review the application of the pattern recognition to quality assessment of the Chinese Traditional Medicine. METHOD: Papers of application of chemical pattern recognition, pattern recognition of stereoscopic features and artificial neural networks to quality assessment of the Chinese Traditional Medicine were collected and the application of different method was reviewed. RESULT: IR, UV, GC, GC-Mass and the sum mass spectra were used to evaluate the chemical character of different samples, and the microscopic features of the epidermis were scored quantitatively by stereology and image analysis on the basis of classical taxonomy,. BP networks were also widely used. CONCLUSION: Chemical pattern recognition, pattern recognition of stereoscopic features and artificial neural networks are of important use in quality assessment of material medica.

[Textual study of Chinese drug loulu].

Through a critical study of Loulu in ancient Chinese herbals, it is concluded that the botanical origin of Loulu should be Qizhou Loulu, the dried root of Rhaponticum uniflorum of family Compositae, while the dried root of Echinops latifolius, which is also one of the species specified in Chinese Pharmacopoeia, should not be used as Loulu because of its deficiency of herbal evidences and totally different chemical constituents from those of the former. It is therefore recommended the latter plant be deleted from the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.
