ABSTRACT
This article gave an overview of the TCM resources of Xiangyang City, analyzed its advantages and disadvantages, and proposed the suggestions that developing advantaged TCM resources, and focusing on planting and deep processing extraction of Taxus chinensis, Melastoma candidum D. Don, and turmeric in Baokang, Ophiopogonis Radix in Xiangyang and Zanthoxyli Pericarpium in Gucheng. At the same time, the Hanjiang water resources are used to vigorously breed leeches. On this basis, through the horizontal combination of advantageous entities, "Taxus chinensis Industrial Park" and "Ophiopogonis Radix Industrial Park" in Xiangyang should be established. Finally, it put forward development strategies by using local TCM resources to boost local economy.
ABSTRACT
Molecular pharmacognosy is an emerging interdisciplinary subject with crude drugs as research subjects. Its development provides a new theoretical method and technique for traditional pharmacognosy research, so that the study of crude drugs has reached the level of gene. As traditional Chinese materia medica, Bupleuri Radix has developed molecular pharmacognosy research on the basis of traditional research Methods , and achieved certain Results . This article summarized the research achievements of Bupleuri Radix through molecular pharmacognosy method in recent years, and prospected this field, in order to further provide references for the protection, development and utilization of Bupleuri Radix resources and other TCM resources.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate TCM resources in Changshou District of Chongqing based on the fourth national census of TCM resources; To provide theoretical references for the protection and exploitation of TCM resources. Methods Sample-plot survey, line survey and interview survey were used in this study. Results Totally 142 families, 482 genera and 639 species (including subspecies and varieties) were collected from the general survey of TCM resources in this region. There were a total of 575 species of medicinal plants, including 456 kinds of ordinary medicinal plants and 119 species of national key medicinal plant which were recorded in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (2015 Edition). But there was no department leader of the Chinese medicine industry and TCM cultivation was almost blank. Nowadays there was no TCM processing enterprise, and the quality could not be controlled. The continual increase of production cost restricted the development of TCM industry. Conclusion TCM resources in Changshou District of Chongqing are abundant, while the TCM industry is almost blank. The support and guidance from government are needed to develop TCM industry in this area.
ABSTRACT
Resource of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is one of the greatest treasures of China. It made magnif-icent contribution in Chinese lives and breeds. Quality is the foundation of safety, effective and quality control of TCM. With the social development, problem with raising need and falling resource and quality had became more and more serious. It slowed down the speed of TCM modernization and internationalization. This study used Shanghai earthworm, the authentic TCM of Shanghai, as an example. Focus on resource and quality problems, such as species confusion, resource shortage, rough machining, low quality and no standards, this study tried to work out the reason-able and feasible solution. This effort funded a way out of a stalemate of TCM resources and quality. It is important to TCM modernization and internationalization.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To probe into a construction model of TCM resource science meeting the need of teaching practice and fitting for teaching and education, which focuses on the both characteristics of TCM and nature of resource. METHODS: Guided by "the three basic key points" theory, the content of the construction of TCM resource science are analyzed, such as foundational theories, elementary knowledge and basic skills, etc., considering academic characteristics and position, write of textbook. RESULTS: Based on current demand, theory analysis, content of system and advantages of the construction of TCM resource science, the new idea characterized with teaching being harmonious with education was put forward and fit for "the three basic key points" theory. CONCLUSIONS: The construction model of TCM resource science is an efficient and technical way to meet the demand of teaching.
