Historical evolution and modern application of rice processing methods for medicinal use
Objective,2,To summarize and analyze the evolution history and modern application of rice preparing and processing methods for medicinal use, establish the research basis for rice being used as the medicinal excipient through literature review, and provide literature to support further scientific research, development and utilization of processing methods of rice and rice-washed water.,Methods,2,Various documentary materials including Chinese medicine classics of previous dynasties, as well as national and local specifications on preparing and processing of traditional Chinese herbal medicines (TCHMs) were reviewed, and related preparing and processing methods recorded therein were summarized and analyzed.,Results,2,The application of rice as a medicinal excipient was first recorded in the ,Jin’gui Yuhan Jing, (,Classic of the Golden Chamber and Jade Sheath,) of the Han Dynasty, which introduced 6 rice preparation methods, 5 rice-washed water preparation methods and many other preparing and processing methods. The current version of the ,Chinese,Pharmacopoeia 2020 edition Ⅰ ,only contains fried Dangshen (Codonopsis Radix) and fried Banmao (Mylabris) with rice. The national and local specifications on preparing and processing of traditional Chinese herbal medicines only include the rice frying method and the rice-washed water maceration method, which are also found in many other documentary materials. In general, the modern research on rice as a medicinal excipient is considered less than sufficient.,Conclusions,2,About rice preparing and processing methods for medicinal use, in ancient times, there were various methods including rice steaming, rice boiling, rice-washed water maceration, rice baking, rice roasting, rice-washed water steaming, rice frying, rice-washed water rinsing, rice grinding, rice juice steaming, rice calcining, rice-washed water stir-frying, rice decocting and starching with ground rice, etc. The modern methods are different from the ancient ones, focusing on the rice frying method and rice-washed water maceration method. Current studies put more emphasis on the preparing and processing techniques of TCHMs with rice. However, the research on rice itself as a medicinal excipient is relatively weak, and there is no mature quality standard available yet.
