薄荷的研究概况与进展

Mentha's historical textual research and clinical new application

查阅近年来国内外有关薄荷研究的学术期刊 ,从薄荷的历史考证 (来源、原植物、鉴别、炮制 )、化学成分、药理作用、临床新应用等几个方面概述了薄荷当前的研究情况。国外薄荷的药用研究较少 ,国内多在药理方面 ,化学方面研究较少。

Having referred to the academic periodical both home and abroad , this author elaborates the current research work of Mentha from its historical textual research ( including its source, original plant, distinguish, manufacture ), chemical composition, pharmacological action, clinical new application. Few research abroad has been conducted on the medicinal aspect, while in our country much research work has been frequently conducted on pharmacological actions of Mentha instead of its chemical aspect. It is suggested in this paper that research on Mentha's material basis and functional mechanism should be further developed.
