The result shows: no marked difference between the cortex and core in reducing inflammation, promoting thrombocyte coagulation, inhibiting convulsion, depressing blood pressure and strengthening antiseptic activity. The toxicity of the core is 38.5 percent of the cortex. This study provides ascientific evidence that the core can be used as medicine.
