Remarks | "Shudihuang" is processed with wine: it is made by steaming after mixing with "Huangjiu", a kind of rice wine such as "Shaoxingjiu". Then it is dried by daylight. This process, steaming and drying, is repeated 9 times. Steamed "Shudihuang": it is made by steaming without "Huangjiu". The steaming and drying process is repeated 9 times too. Comparing with "Kanjiō" (Unprepared Rehmannia Root), "Shudihuang" tends to have less or no iridoid glycoside such as catalpol, and has more monosaccharides. | ||||||
