槟榔为棕榈科植物槟榔(Areca catechu)的干燥种子,具有杀虫破积,下气行水之功用。其质地坚硬,体形圆锥状,不易切制,传统的炮制方法是换水浸泡。也有报道将槟榔直接粉碎应用或用热水浸泡后切片等。为了减少有效成分损失,我们将几种不同炮制品进行了实验研究。 Betel nut is a dry seed of Areca catechu, a palmaceous plant, which has the functions of killing insects and destroying water. Its hard texture, body-shaped cone, not easy to cut, the traditional method of processing is to change the water soak. It has also been reported that the betel nut is directly crushed or immersed in hot water and sliced. In order to reduce the loss of active ingredients, we have conducted experimental studies on several different artillery products.
