Character.
Character identification (1) studies often curled into a group. The roots of cylindrical, ca.1cm, diameter 2-3mm, surface light brown or grayish yellow, rough internodes 1-9mm. Thin cylindrical, length 7cm, diameter 1-2mm, surface grayish white or light brown or white, yellow-white section. Leaf blade flattened was wide heart kidney shaped heart shape, length and width are3-8cm, apex obtuse or rounded, above the main veins at both sides of the visible cloud, veins and leaf margin shorthair. I see a flower,1-2 in leaf axils, campanulate, purple brown. Fragrance, strong spicy, have a sense of Ma tongue. (2) leaflets of Valeriana rhizome short. Root diameter of l-2mm, sallow, white cross section. Complete after the leaf expansion heart-shaped, egg. Shape shape, length 3-6cm, width 3.5-7.5cm, apex acute or obtuse, base cordate, above the main vein in two cases when there is a cloud, veins and edge with short hairs; petioles3-15cm. Fragrance, taste spicy, slightly Ma tongue. To many, concentrated flavor is preferred.
Microscopic identification ( L ) Du Henggen: epidermal residual transverse section. The outer layer of cells1 columns; cortex with oil cells scattered in the endothelial layer obviously. The primary xylem of four or five prototype prototype. Parenchyma cells contain starch grains.
Root transverse section: epidermal cells inside have collenchyma. Cortex is broad, with oil cells scattered in the parenchyma cells contain starch grains. Vascular monocyclic type, often5-6. The pith is obvious.
Blade surface view: upper and lower epidermis stomata are the infinitive, and graphics oil cell. The epidermal cells of type of polygonal, vein is visible by L-4cells comprising the non glandular hairs, apical tip and slightly curved, with wall warts, long 132-160μ m,29.6-44.4μ m base diameter. Epidermal cells under irregular shape, anticlinal wall corrugated curved, glabrous. (2) leaflets horseshoe Vetiver transverse: outer layer cells to extend the cut; cortical cell about 19 columns, with oil cells scattered in the parenchyma cells, starch grains, primary xylem typically three prototype.
Root transverse section: cortical cell about 21 columns, bulk oil cells, parenchyma cells contain starch grains. Often the 6bundle.

[ ] the discussion
1" doctor" BIE Lu: treating cold cough inverse.
2" resistance": stop on gas ran panting and drink blood, phlegm, broken, the main room tumour gall diseases.
3" compendium of Materia Medica": getting rid of the cold, under the gas water broken blood, phlegm, insecticidal.
4" history of Chinese medicine in Guangxi": dredging, cold, expectorant, diuresis.
5" Jiangsu medicine annals": sweating, expectorant. Cure a cold headache, toothache, sore tongue.
6" Zhejiang": Annals of Tianmu yam planting emetic, expectorant, diuresis. Treatment of bronchitis and edema.
7" the classics": Studies on incense channeling, and asarum similarity, so the drug store to charge on behalf of asarum. But the gas cloud, can not search for polyester Shaoyin by cold, little Asarum by ear.
