The Method of Controlling Moisture and Dry Storage of Panax notoginseng Seeds

Abstract

The invention discloses a panax notoginseng seed humidity control and dry storage method. The method comprises the following steps: (1) treating seeds, i.e., collecting mature fruits of panax notoginseng, rubbing off peels in water to obtain mature and full seeds, disinfecting, and cleaning with clear water; (2) drying the seeds, i.e., drying the seeds obtained in step (1) in shade; (3) mixing the seeds treated in step (2) with dry perlite, split charging the mixture in open mouthed containers, and then placing the open mouthed containers in a closed container for humidity control and cold storage, wherein potassium nitrate solution is added into the bottom of the closed container, and the open mouthed containers do not contact with the potassium nitrate solution by using a hollow separation plate; (4) mixing the seeds treated in step (3) with wet perlite, and then performing cold storage. By adopting the method, the closed container with certain environment humidity can be controlled to perform humidity control and dry storage on the seeds, and the morphological development time of seed embryos can be prolonged; in addition, the time from budding of the seed embryos to breaking dormancy of the seeds is prolonged, thus facilitating transporting and storage and being beneficial to improvement of germination rate and seedling emergence rate after the seeds are planted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for moisture-controlled dry storage of Panax notoginseng seeds, which belongs to the field of traditional Chinese medicine storage. Background technique [0002] Panax notoginseng is a perennial herb of Araliaceae ginseng, also known as Jinbuhuan, blood ginseng, Tianqi, etc. Its roots, stems, leaves, and flowers can be used as medicine. It is a traditional Chinese medicinal material with warm nature and sweet and slightly bitter taste. , has the effects of hemostasis, blood stasis, swelling and pain relief, and is the main raw material of Chinese patent medicines such as "Yunnan Baiyao", "Compound Danshen Tablets" and "Compound Danshen Dripping Pills". Modern pharmacological research shows that Panax notoginseng contains 51 kinds of notoginseng saponins, 77 kinds of volatile oils represented by β-elemene, 17 kinds of amino acids represented by notoginseng, and various activities such as notoginseng polysaccharides and ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Since the newly harvested seeds are not treated effectively or planted immediately, the seed vitality will be easily lost. Therefore, in production practice, only the method of storing Sanqi in the sand at room temperature can prolong the seed vitality for 60-90 days, but this method cannot prevent Embryo Morphological Development Process
