Abstract:
Puerariae Lobatae Radix, as a traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) with both medicinal and edible properties, possesses effects such as relieving muscle tension and fever, generating fluids and quenching thirst, and unblocking the meridians and collaterals. Modern fermentation technology, combined with microecology and modern bioengineering, can regulate the fermentation process and efficiently produce fermentation products. In recent years, modern fermentation technology has been widely applied in TCM, enhancing or altering efficacy, reducing toxicity, and expanding the scope of clinical applications. This paper reviewed the current research on Puerariae Lobatae Radix fermentation, including fermentation methods, strain selection, fermentation processes, and pharmacological effects, with the aim of providing a reference for further in-depth research, development, and utilization of Puerariae Lobatae Radix fermentation.
