Delphinium Delphinium (4 tablets)

Born on hillsides, grasslands and fixed dunes. Distributed in Yunnan, Shanxi, Hebei, Ningxia, Sichuan, Gansu, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Xinjiang, Tibet and other places.

Propagation is carried out by rameting, cutting and sowing. Branching can be carried out in spring and autumn.

When the new buds grow to 15- 18 cm in spring, they can be cut and transplanted after rooting, or they can be cut with new branches at the base after flowering. Usually sowing in March-April or September, the optimum germination temperature is about 65438 05℃. Apply sufficient base fertilizer before planting, and nitrogen fertilizer is the main topdressing. Old plants grow weakly and need to be transplanted every 2-3 years. Plants are very tall, prone to lodging or bending, and need support and fixation. Common diseases include black spot disease, root and neck soft rot and so on.

The aerial part contains methyl burdock alkaloid. In addition to the above alkaloids, the whole plant also contains four kinds of flavonoid glycosides isolated from bovine oblongine, among which the aglycone of three flavonoid glycosides is kaempferol, the sugar parts are rhamnose and glucose, rhamnose and arabinose, arabinose and glucose respectively, and the aglycone of the fourth glycoside is pentaerythritol. In addition, it also contains inorganic components such as calcium, iron, magnesium and copper.

1. Cardiovascular effects The isolated guinea pig right atrium experiment confirmed that delphinium can reduce the spontaneous contraction frequency of the heart and the contraction amplitude of atrial muscle, showing an inhibitory effect on the heart. The whole animal experiment shows that this product can lower blood pressure.

2. The skeletal muscle action of Delphinium has no excitability, but it can antagonize the excitability of acetylcholine in a dose-effect relationship. This muscle relaxation effect is similar to that of curare, also known as curare-like muscle relaxation effect.

3. Smooth muscle action can stimulate the smooth muscle of intestine, uterus, gallbladder and other organs in vitro. Similar to acetylcholine, atropine can counteract this exciting effect of delphinium.

4. Other functions have certain antipyretic, analgesic and insecticidal effects.
