Abstract:
With the modernization drive of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), this perspective innovatively proposes integrating carbon dot research paradigms to facilitate the modernization of charcoal drugs in TCM. The research focuses on five core areas: analyzing and validating charcoal drugs components pharmacologically, exploring modern preparation methods, establishing a quality evaluation system, fixing preparation process parameters, and probing into the material basis. These steps aim to deepen the scientific understanding of the material basis of charcoal drugs, optimize its preparation process, and establish a comprehensive quality control system. This work provides a theoretical foundation and experimental evidence for the scientific understanding of charcoal drugs, further promoting their modernization and internationalization.
