Compatible leaching effect of Concha Ostreae and some commonly-used Chinese medicinal materials]

OBJECTIVE: Based on a study of Concha Ostreae, to provide some reference for the rational approach to leaching mineral drugs. METHOD: Taking the change rates of compatible leaching and value of A as targets, the compatible leaching effect of Concha Ostreae with Radix et Rhizoma Rhei Praeparata, Radix Scutellariae, Pollen Typhae and Fructus Aurantii lmmaturus was studied. RESULT: If Concha Ostreae and the above cited medicinal herbs are decocted together, the yield of extract may be reduced to a certain extent, but the target composition of Radix et Rhizoma Rhei Praeparata and Fructus Aurantii lmmaturus remains intact, only the content of Radix Scutellariae baicalin may be influenced. CONCLUSION: The relationship of technology with preparation must be taken into consideration when making choice of the proper way to leach Concha Ostreae.
