Construction of Systematic Identification Methods for Mineral Traditional Chinese Medicines / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Compared with that for botanical drugs and animal-derived drugs, the identification study for mineral traditional Chi-nese medicines is relatively weak. The traditional identification methods can’ t meet the quality control requirements of mineral tradi-tional Chinese medicines, and the application of modern analysis techniques are needed urgently in the systematic research of mineral traditional Chinese medicines. In the paper, the identification of traditional methods combined with some modern analysis techniques such as X-ray diffraction, near infrared spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy for mineral traditional Chinese medicines was summarized and analyzed to provide basic idea and methods for the systematic identification construction of mineral traditional Chinese medicines.
