ABSTRACT
This research adopts "Delphi method" to evaluate atractylodes traditional traits and rank correlation. By using methods of mathematical statistics the relationship of the traditional identification indicators and atractylodes goods rank correlation was analyzed, It is found that the main characteristics affectingatractylodes commodity specifications and grades of main characters wereoil points of transaction,color of transaction,color of surface,grain of transaction,texture of transaction andspoilage. The study points out that the original "seventy-six kinds of medicinal materials commodity specification standards of atractylodes differentiate commodity specification" is not in conformity with the actual market situation, we need to formulate corresponding atractylodes medicinal products specifications and grades.This study combined with experimental results "Delphi method" and the market actual situation, proposed the new draft atractylodes commodity specifications and grades, as the new atractylodes commodity specifications and grades standards. It provides a reference and theoretical basis.
ABSTRACT
Objective: To explore the correlation between the hemostatic activity and commercial grades of Panax notoginseng. Methods: After treatment with different commercial grades of P. notoginseng, the mice blooding time (BT) and clotting time (CT) were measured. At the same time the prothrombin time (PT), activation part thrombin time (APTT), fibrinogen (FIB), and platelet count (PLT) were also detected by fully automated blood cell analyzer. The contents of dencichine were determined by HPLC. Results: Mice BT, CT, PT, and APTT were decreased and PLT was increased significantly in all the commercial grades of P. notoginseng. Among all the commercial grades, the countless Tou Sanqi Powder has the best hemostatic activity. There is no correlation between the commercial grades and homostatic activity. Different contents of the extracted dencichine were observed among different commercial grades of P. notoginseng. The highest content of dencichine was 0.98% in countless Tou Sanqi and the lowest was 0.52% in 80 Tou Sanqi. There is no statistical correlation between the dencichine and hemostatic activity or dencichine and commercial grades of P. notoginseng. Conclusion: There is no statistical correlation between the commercial grades of P. notoginseng and haemostatic activity or dencichine contents. The dencichine in countless Tou Sanqi which is the cheapest of all displays the better hemostaic activity than those in 13 or 20 Tou Sanqi whose cost is almost as ten times as countless Tou Sanqi's.
