Abstract

|
|
Objectives: For the authentication of the Milmong-wha, one of korean herbal medicines, it was made a comparative study between Buddlejae Flos (BF), flower bud or inflorescence of Buddleja officinalis Maxim., and Edgeworthiae Flos (EF), those of Edgeworthia chrysantha Lindl.
Methods: In addition to a sensory observation, a stereoscope was used for more accuracies.
Results: BF was yellowish-brown and irregularly truncated conical, whereas EF was stramineous and regularly hemispherical. The flower bud of BF was densely stellate tomentose with some glandular hairs, while the that of EF was densely white silkily hairy.
Conclusions: The type of hairs and general appearance are discriminable criteria between two herbs, BF and EF.
