经典名方中竹沥的本草考证OA

This article systematically reviews and examines the historical evolution of Bambusae Succus as a medicinal material,covering aspects such as nomenclature,origin,geographical distribution,harvesting and processing methods,quality assessment,therapeutic effects and indications,by consulting ancient herbal texts,medical compendia,and modern literature.The aim is to provide a reference for the development and utilization of famous classical formulas containing this herb.Research indicated that Bambusae Succus was first documented in the Shennong Bencaojing during the Han dynasty,with Zhuli being the standard name used throughout history,alongside aliases like Zhuzhi,Zhuyou and Huoquan.Historically,the primary source of Bambusae Succus has been Phyllostachys nigra var.henonis(Danzhu),although other species such as Pleioblastus amarus and Bambusa emeiensis have also been used medicinally.Ancient records predominantly noted its origin in Yizhou(present-day Chengdu and surrounding areas in Sichuan)and the Wuling region(between present-day Hunan,Guangdong,Guangxi and Jiangxi provinces),while contemporary sources are mainly from regions south of the Yangtze River and southwestern China.Traditionally,Bambusae Succus was harvested from bamboo that had grown for exactly one year,today,it can be collected year-round without strict age requirements.Ancient preparation methods included direct fire roasting or dry distillation,whereas modern industrial production employs dry distillation,reflux extraction,and percolation.In terms of quality evaluation,ancient texts considered a sweet taste to be superior,while today,clarity and transparency are prioritized.Historically,Bambusae Succus was characterized as sweet and cold nature,targeting the lung and stomach meridians,with uses evolving from clearing heat and resolving phlegm to nourishing Yin,moistening dryness,and relaxing tendons and unblocking meridians.Modern descriptions classify it as sweet,bitter,and cold in nature,affecting the heart,liver,and lung meridians,with functions including clearing heat,resolving phlegm,and facilitating orifices.It is indicated for conditions such as stroke with phlegm confusion,lung heat with phlegm congestion,convulsions,epilepsy,excessive phlegm in febrile diseases,high fever with thirst,irritability during pregnancy,and tetanus,with more clearly defined applications.Based on the results of the research,it is recommended that when developing and utilizing famous classical formulas containing Bambusae Succus,the one-year-old Phyllostachys nigra var.Henonis,which has been highly praised throughout history,should be selected as the source material.Industrial production should adopt the dry distillation method.Furthermore,in-depth research should be conducted on the modern technological characterization of the traditional quality control indicator of sweet taste,and reasonable modern quality control standards should be established.
