Abstract

Abstract: Objective To unveil the difference between Cremastrae Pseudobulbus/Pleione Pseudobulbus, adulterants and commonly-used products so as to provide a reference for the selection of medicinal materials containing Cremastrae Pseudobulbus/Pleione Pseudobulbus. Methods The usage of authentic Cremastrae Pseudobulbus/Pleione Pseudobulbus and adulterants collected from markets and areas of production was studied. Dominating adulterants and commonly-used products were identified based on botanical characteristics and microstructures. Results The origins of authentic Cremastrae Pseudobulbus/Pleione Pseudobulbus included Cremastrae pseudobulbus (Cremastra appendiculata (D. Don) Makino) and Pleione bulbocodioides (Pleione bulbocodioides (Franch.) Rolfe and Pleione yunnanensis Rolfe). The adulterants of Cremastrae pseudobulbus included Oreorchis patens (Lindley) Lindley, Anthogonium gracile Lindl., Iphigenia indica while those of Pleione bulbocodioides included P. maculata (Lindl.) Lindl., P. saxicola Tang & F. T. Wang ex S. C. Chen, and P. praecox (J. E. Sm.) D. Don. Conclusion The identification of Cremastrae Pseudobulbus/Pleione Pseudobulbus mostly depends on the verification of origins and morphological identification. It is recommended that subsequent research and development take into account fingerprint spectra and content indicators to ensure the use of genuine products.

Key words: Cremastrae Pseudobulbus, Pleiones Pseudobulbus, Pleione bulbocodioides, P. yunnanensis, Adulterants, Commonly-Used Products, Identification
