Abstract:
OBJECTIVETo establish the quality standard for carbonizing drug characteristic of ginger carbon.
METHODGingers and different carbonized gingers were compared by the absorption of pigment, tannin content, pH, mouth's coagulation time and bleeding time.
RESULTThe study resulted in the recommended carbonizing standard that the absorption capacity shall not be less than 7.50 mg x g(-1) for methylene blue, the tannin content shall not be less than 2.103 mg x g(-1), the pH shall be (5.50 +/- 0.10), and coagulation time and bleeding time shall be the shorter the better.
CONCLUSIONThe established assessment standard for carbonizing drug characteristic of ginger carbon is reasonable, easily operated and feasible.
