Abstract:
Curcuma Radix is a kind of multi-base crude drug, which is originated from Curcuma genus same as Curcuma longa, Curcumae Rhizoma, and Wenyujin Rhizoma Concisum. There are original overlapping parts among them, but in the part of medicine and the processing method are different. In the traditional efficacy, the flavors of them are both spice and bitter, with the same effects of moving qi and activating blood flow, they also have their own characteristics and efficacy tendency. Therefore, it is of special significance to establish the quality evaluation method and quality control system which can reflect the common characteristics and the differences between Curcumae Radix and its near-source species. On the basis of combing the traditional literatures and summing up the modern research reports, according to the concept and core theory of quality marker of traditional Chinese medicine, this paper puts forward the research ideas and methods about characteristics of components based on “origin-processing-medicinal parts” and component validity based on “medicinal efficacy-medicinal property-new clinical use” to predict and analyze the quality marker of Curcumae Radix.
