[Pharmacognostical studies on the folk medicine in Sichuan Prov. in China. III. On tu-er-feng derived from Ainsliaea plants].
In the previous paper, Tu-er-feng, one of Chinese folk medicines used locally in Sichuan prov., derived from the whole plants of Gerbera piloselloides of family Compositae, was pharmacognostically reported. In the recent markets, besides this known material, Tu-er-feng made of different components are found. In this paper, the Ainsliaea derivatives are studied to clarify the botanical origins; comparing anatomically with leaves and petioles of thirteen Ainsliaea species growing wildly in Sichuan prov. The result shows that A. glabra and A. rubrinervis are the ingredients.
