Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of color retention treatment on the preservation of medicinal plant herbariums, film-cover specimens and resin specimens. Methods Seven kinds of medicinal plants with different characters after color retention treatment were made into herbariums, film-cover specimens and resin specimens, and then the preservation results for the above three kinds of medicinal plant specimens with or without color retention treatment were compared. Results Resin and film-cover specimens without color retention treatment had better preservation results than herbariums. All of the three kinds of specimens with color retention treatment had better preservation results for the original color and shape than the specimens without color retention treatment. Conclusion Color retention treatment for the medicinal plants results into higher preservation quality of the herbariums and longer preservation period.
