title: [Direct identification of Artemisia argyi, Artemisia dubia and Artemisia lavandulaefolia by FTIR].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To directly and accurately identify Artemisia argyi Levl. et Vant., Artemisia dubia Wall. and Artemisia lavandulaefolia DC.
  
  
  METHODS
  Fourier tansform infrared (FTIR) spectrum method was used.
  
  
  RESULTS
  There were obvious differences among the FTIR spectrums of above-mentioned plants.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Artemisia argyi Levl. et Vant., Artemisia dubia Wall. and Artemisia lavandulaefolia DC. were directly, fast and accurately identified by FTIR.
