巴戟天是我国著名的"四大南药"之一,由于历代本草遗留下来的问题及各地用药品种和习惯的不同,来源植物涉及5科,11种;其中福建省有3种。为了鉴别闽产巴戟天的正品与代用品,对闽产巴戟天进行本草考证和来源、形态性状、显微结构和理化性质进行鉴别。结果表明:闽产巴戟天的正品与代用品在植物形态和结构方面,药材性状和理化特征方面都存在着差异,这些差异可作为巴戟天品种鉴定的依据。

Morinda officinalis How is one of the famous traditional Chinese medicine. Because of original botany and difference of custom in using M. officinalis, there are 11 species, belonging to 5 families, named ＂ Ba Ji Tian＂ , and 3 species of them in Fujian Province. In order to identify M. offieinalis among other succedanea in Fujian Province, we identify it and other succedanea on morphology, pharmaceutical, microscopic and physic-chemical characteristics.
