ABSTRACT
In this paper, through consulting relevant records in materia medica, medical and prescription books, and combining with modern literature, the name, origin, producing area, collection and processing of Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix in famous classical formulas from The Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas (The First Batch) was systematically sorted out and textual research was carried out, in order to provide a basis for the development of the famous classical formulas containing Gentianae macrophyllae Radix. After textual research, it was found that Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix was the rectification of name in the past dynasties. In addition, there were other names such as Qinjiao, Qingua and Qinzhua. Gentiana macrophylla, G. straminea, G. dahurica and G. siphonantha were the main origin of this herb in ancient literature. Among them, G. macrophylla is the mainstream. In the Southern and Northern dynasties, G. straminea and G. macrophylla produced in northern Sichuan were recommended as the best. In the early Tang dynasty, G. macrophylla from the Liupan Mountain area at the border of Shanxi and Gansu provinces was the mainstream. During the Northern Song dynasty, G. siphonantha from Linxia and Qilian Mountain of Gansu province and G. macrophylla from eastern Shaanxi province were two new producing areas. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the abundant base and production areas of Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix were gradually formed. In the past dynasties, harvesting was carried out in spring and autumn, and stored mainly by aeration drying or shade drying treatment. The processing methods are mainly the raw products after the net selection, cutting and drying, in addition to the frying, processing with wine and milk. G. macrophylla is recommended as the first choice for the herbal medicine involved in the famous classical formulas. Among them, wild products produced in Gansu and Shaanxi are the best, and raw products are recommended to be used. At the same time, it is suggested that G. siphonantha should be added to the subsequent edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia as one of origins of Gentianae Macrophyllae Radix.
