(L chinensis). We obtained the IR spectra and XRD patterns of L chinensis collected from different sources. The similarity of samples was analyzed by cal- culating the cosine coefficient. The cosine values were in the range of 0.83-0.90, indicating that the main components ofL chinensis samples are similar. Sample L1 and L6 showed a slightly lower similarity than that of L2, L3, L4, L5 detected by the two methods, which revealed that IR and XRD methods exhibited analogous detection ability for quality evaluation of L. chinensis. The two methods could be highly re- commended as simple and rapid detection means for quality evaluation of L. chinensis.展开更多

Experimental studies and clinical applications have also indicated that L. chinensis possesses a number of pharmacological activities(e.g., diuretic, choleretic, breathing excitement, anti-venom, anti-bacterial, and anticancer). This paper focuses on the properties, chemical constituents, and anticancer activity of L. chinensis to clarify the connection among them, and identify the active anticancer compounds. This work serves as the foundation for further research and development of L. chinensis.展开更多
