A Comparison Research on Inorganic Elements of Different Parts in Cultured Trollius Chinensis and Wild Authentic Trollius Chinensis / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

ABSTRACT

This study was aimed to measure the classification and content of inorganic elements in different parts of flowers, leaves and stems of cultivated Trollius chinensis. Meanwhile, a comparison was made in the classification and content of wild authentic T. chinensis and those of cultivated T. chinensis. At last, the medicinal quality of cul-tured T. chinensis was evaluated. An experimental method of flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry was adopted to analyze the classification and content of inorganic elements in different parts of flowers, leaves and stems of culti-vated T. chinensis and those of wild authentic T. chinensis. The results showed that the classification of inorganic el-ements in cultivated T. chinensis and those in wild authentic T. chinensis were the same. The contents of K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Zn, Mn and Cu in both cultivated T. chinensis and wild authentic T. chinensis were basically the same. Most of the classification of inorganic elements in leaves of cultivated T. chinensis was the same with those in flowers. The content of inorganic elements was rich. It was concluded that the classification of inorganic elements in cultivated T. chinensis was the same with those in wild authentic T. chinensis. The main content was also similar. The planting of T. chinensis can meet the medicinal standards. Meanwhile, the leaves of T. chinensis can also be developed for medicinal value.
