摘要:

对张景岳《新方八阵》中的几味在中药材标准和权威药学典籍中没有明确记载的药物进行了引据考证,以便为其以后的研究提供文献依据；通过考证历代本草对“锡灰”、“脑荷”的记载,并对其加以比较、分析后,认为《新方八阵》所记载的中药“锡灰”为铅灰,“脑荷”应该是指苏州龙脑薄荷.

Abstract:

This topic is a textual research on a few of Chinese Materia Medica, which are recorded in The New Eight Arrays Formulas written by ZHANG Jing-yue but without clear records in Chinese herbal medicine standard and Chinese Materia Medica classic works. The aim is to provide some literature basis for the future investigation about Chinese Materia Medica. Through research on the records of “Xihui” and “Naohe” recorded by Chinese Materia Medica works of successive dynasties and after comparing and analyzing we believe that, “Xihui” recorded in The New Eight Arrays Formulas is actually“Qianhui” and“Naohe” is Borneol herba menthae produced in Suzhou.
