Research progress on superfine grinding technique in field of Chinese materia medica / 中草药

ABSTRACT

With the continuous development of the modernization of Chinese materia medica (CMM), the superfine grinding technology has been continuously applied to the basic and applied research of raw materials and preparations, which has become an important way to improve and enhance the quality of traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces and traditional preparations. This paper introduces the concept, the equipment, working principle and characteristics of superfine grinding, and expounds the general situation of application of superfine grinding technology in Chinese materia medica (CMM). The prospective application of superfine grinding technology in the field of CMM was analyzed and prospected. The problems that should be paid attention to in the future research and application of superfine grinding of CMM were put forward.
