牡丹宁 Paeoniflorin Explanation: What is Paeoniflorin? Common name: Moutan, Red peony, White peony Botanical names: Paeonia suffruticosa, Paeonia lactiflora, Paeonia veitchii Cortex Moutan is the stem and root of Paeonia suffruticosa Andr.which belongs to the paeoniaceae family. It is the effective component of many traditional Chinese medicine. Paeonol is the effective component of Cortex Moutan. It is proved that in modern medicine paeonol has a variety of effects including: antibacteria, antiinflammation, relieving pain, antisensitive, strengthing immune system. It has been widely used in medicine, incense, chemistry. On the one hand, Cortex Moutan is in abundance, majority of which hasn't been made good use of except of export. On the other hand, Paeonol has a good price in the international market. So it is necessary to extract paeonol. In the experiment, extraction of Paeonol from Cortex Moutan by means of alcohol extraction and steam distillation and super-critical CO2 respectively. It is found that super-critical CO2 extraction is superior to steam distillation and alcohol extraction and reconstruction of paeonol is a good means which can synthesized a more effective medicine. We have got a new synthesis of its derivation by combining paeonol with As2O3. Traditional Use: Peony is an traditional Chinese herbal medicine. Bai shao or white peony was used for hypertension, chest pain, muscle cramping and spasms, and fever. It was an important remedy for female reproductive conditions ranging from dysmenorrhea to irregular menses. Red peony was used for bleeding or lack of blood movement, depending on how it was prepared. Moutan was used for problems characterized by bleeding, such as nosebleeds, bleeding wounds, or menorrhagia. Active Constituents: Peony contains a unique glycoside called paeoniflorin. Proanthocyanidins, flavonoids, tannins, polysaccharides, and paeoniflorin are all considered to contribute to the medicinal activity of various forms of peony. Paeoniflorin and peony extracts enhance mental function in animal studies, suggesting a potential benefit for dementia.
