[ character ]
Character identification of whole plant of much branched, long 20-40cm. Roots conic, diameter 1-4mm; surface brownish yellow, with longitudinal wrinkles, with fine root. The bine is fascicular, slender, long 12-30cm, dark yellow green, longitudinally angular; brittle, easily broken, section hollow. Leaves alternate, linear-lanceolate, length 1-3cm, width 0.5-15mm, lime green.
Flowers solitary in leaf axils, nearly sessile. The nut is nearly spherical, about 2mm in diameter, surface grayish yellow, with reticular glyph has night latch, leaflike bractlets 2. Gas, light.
The fruit is much, color is grey green, no mud sand is preferred.
Microscopic identification of Bairuicao transverse section of the stem: round, 5-10 prism. Epidermal cell wall of rectangular, slightly thick. Cortical lateral 2-3 columns with cell thickness, edge is more developed; thin-walled cells oval or round, inward cells gradually. Pericycle fiber bundle cap, located in phloem outside. Vascular collateral type. Cambium usually inconspicuous. Xylem diameter round or oval, 13-33 m, distributed in single or 2-3 flocks; wood ray width of 1 cells in a column, wall slightly thick, petrified wood. Pith parenchyma cells and often due to rupture of hollow section, Ye Heng: on epidermal cells under similar, round, oval or irregular shape, lateral often slightly papillary; leaf epidermis outside cuticle. Mesophyll cell differentiation is not obvious, thin-walled cells containing calcium oxalate crystal. The main vein vascular collateral type, xylem developed.
View: on leaf surface, lower epidermal cells were polygonal or rectangular, vertical Zhou Biping straight. Stomatal thousands of shaft type. Leaf margin cells common stratum corneum protrusions.
Physical and chemical identification and powder 1g, methanol was added to 10ml 30min, reflux extraction, filtration. With 5ml filtrate, plus a small amount of hydrochloric acid and magnesium, shows orange red.
