Study on Processing for Rhizoma Pinelliae (Processed with Licorice and Lime)by Orthogonal Design / 中成药

ABSTRACT

The procedure for Rhizoma Pinelliae(Processed with Licorice and Lime) was combinatively evaluated by L_9(3)~4 orthogonal design with three factors:decocting times for Radix Glycyrrhizae,concentrated volume of decoction and macerating time. The optimum condition is as follows: each 100g of Rhizoma Pinelliae,accompanied with 15g of Radix Glycyrrhizae (decocted with water for two times,then the two decoctions were combined,and concentrated to 150ml.)and 10g of calx,was macerated in concentrated decoction of Radix Glyeyrrhizae for six days
