Carry out the method for thin layer chromatography (Appendix Vl B) using silica gel H containing sodium carboxymethylcellose as the coating substance and benzene-ethanol (2:1) as the mobile phase. Apply in the strips separately to the plate 2µl of each of the three solutions. After developing and removal of the plate, dry it in the air and then using benzene-ethanol (4:1) as the mobile phase, after developing in a chamber pre-saturated for 15 minutes and removal of the plate, dry it in the air and examinize under ultra violet light (365nm).

'''Chinese Name''' : <BR><BR><br />
'''Common Name''' :Fleece-flower Root<BR><BR><br />
'''Specific Name''' : Radix polygoni multiflori<BR><BR><br />
'''Scientific Name:'''<BR><br />
'''Collection''' : The drug is collected in autumn and winter when leaves wither, removed from two ends, washed clean and the large one cut into pieces and then dried.<BR><BR><br />
'''Description''' : Mass or irregular fusiform. 6 - 15 cm long. 4 - 12 cm in diameter. Externally reddish brown, shrunken and uneven, shallowly grooved with transverse elongated lenticels and fine rootlet scars. Texture heavy, compact uneasily broken, fracture pale yellowish brown or reddish brown, starchy, bark exhibiting 4 - 112 subrounded rings of abnormal vascular bundles, forming brocaded pattern. Wood in central part relatively large. Some having a woody core. Odourless taste bitterish, sweetish and astringent.<BR><BR><br />
'''Identification''' : 1.Transverse section: Cork consisting of several layers of cells filled with brown contents. Phloem relatively broad, scattered with 4 - 11 subrounded abnormal vascular bundles of collateral type, vessels rare. In the central part of a root cambium in a ring, vessels in xylem less, subrounded by some tracheids and a few xylem fibres. Parenchymatous cells containing starch granules and clusters of calcium oxalate. 10 - 160 µm in diameterPowder: Yellowish brown, simple starch granules subrounded. 4 - 50 µm in diameter, hilum V-shaped, stellate or Y-shaped, striations of large ones fairly distinct. Compound granules of 2 - 9 components. Clusters of calcium oxalate 10 - 80 - 160 µm in diameter and clusters joined with prisms occasionally found. Brown cells subrounded or elliptical, walls slightly thickened. Lumina filled with yellowish brown, brown or reddish brown contents and containing starch granules, bordered pitted vessels, 17 - 178 µm in diameter. Brown masses scattered, varying in shape size and color.2.To 0.25 g of the powder add 50 ml of ethanol, heat under reflux on a water Bath for 1 hour and filter. Concentrate the filtrate to 3 ml, use as the test solution. Prepare a solution of Radix Polygoni Multiflori reference drug in the same manner as a reference drug solution. Carry out the method for thin layer chromatogaphy (Appendix Vl B) Using silica gel H containing sodium carboxymethylcellulose as the coating substance and benzene ethanol (2:1) as the mobile phase. Apply separately to the plate 2 µl of each of the two solutions in strips. After developing about 3.5 cm from the base line and removal of the plate, dry it in the air. Develop again using bezene dehydrate ethanol (4:11) as the second mobile phase. After developing at a distance of about 7 cm, removal of the plate, dry it in the air.. Examine under ultra violet light (365 nm). The fluorescence strips in the chromatogram obtained with the test solution correspond in position and colour to the strips in the chromatogram obtained with the reference drug solution. Then spray with phosphommolybdic acid solution in sulfuric acid (dissolve 2 g phosphommolybdic acid in 20 ml of water, add 30 ml of nitric acid slowly and mix well) and gently heat.. Examine immediately under ultra violet light (365 nm) and sun light. The strips in the chromatogram obtained with the test solution correspond in position and colour to the strips in the chromatogram obtained with the reference drug solution.<BR><BR><br />
'''Processing''' : Eliminate foreign matter, wash, macerate, soften thoroughly, cut into thick slices or pieces and dry.<BR><BR><br />
'''Action''' : To counteract toxicity, to cure carbuncles, and to relax bowels.<BR><BR><br />
'''Indication''' : lymphadenitis, carbuncles, urticaria with itching; constipation; hyperlipimia<BR><BR><br />
'''Precautions''' : <BR><BR><br />
