Фармакогностическое исследование сырья Tripleurospermum inodorum (L.) Sch. Bip.

Abstract

Introduction of new plant species into medical practice requires pharmacognostic research, including determination of macro- and microscopic parameters of plant raw materials. The article presents the results of anatomical and morphological study of aboveground organs of Tripleurospermum inodorum (L.) Sch. Bip., collected in natural conditions in the flowering phase. The plant exhibits anticoagulant properties, has softening, antispasmodic and analgesic properties, and exhibits antibacterial activity. According to the results of the analysis of morphological and anatomical indicators of trice berries unpalatable determined diagnostic signs of raw materials at the macro- and microscopic level. So, at macroscopic level the following signs are defined: a shape, color of a stem from a surface and color on a break; a shape and degree of dissection of a leaf plate, the form of final lobules of leaflets; a shape of a flower basket, features of a structure of leaves of a coverlet, a flower spike; a structure and a form of tubular and bell-shaped flowers. At the microscopic level, the signs of Tripleurospermum inodorum raw material are as follows: shape and structure of the stem, placement of the main tissues; shape and structure of the epidermal cells of the flower corolla and the wrapper leaves, location of receptacles and essential-oil glands. The received results can enter the project of normative documents on vegetative raw materials of the given kind.
