Zedoary fresh-cut processing technology

Abstract

The invention discloses a 'zedoary fresh-cut processing technology'. The zedoary fresh-cut processing technology includes the steps of washing harvested zedoary in boiling water when the surfaces, with soil, of the zedoary are moist, neatening the roots, tedding for 12-48 hours, slicing the zedoary into round or elliptical slices when the zedoary are fresh, airing the slices to be dry, vacuumizing polythene plastic bags for packaging and adding desiccants. The zedoary fresh-cut processing technology has the advantages that since the zedoary is washed and processed when being fresh, loss of water-soluble effective components is avoided, contamination of microorganisms and eggs in soil to the zedoary is reduced, decoction piece production processes are simplified, production cost is lowered, quality of the zedoary is guaranteed and clinical efficacy is improved. The zedoary fresh-cut processing technology has remarkable social significance and economic benefit when being popularized and implemented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of processing traditional Chinese medicinal materials, and in particular relates to the processing technology of traditional Chinese medicinal curcuma decoction pieces. Background technique [0002] The traditional Chinese medicine Zezhu is a plant of Zingiberaceae Curcumaphaeocaulis Val., Guangxi curcuma Curcuma Kwangsiensis S.G.LeeetC.F.Liang or Wen Yujin Curcumawenyujin Dried rhizomes of Y.H. Chenet C. Ling. Pungent, bitter, warm. Return liver, spleen channel. Function breaking blood and promoting qi, eliminating stagnation and relieving pain. Mainly used for blood stasis abdominal pain, hepatosplenomegaly, trusted subordinates distending pain, accumulation, women's blood stasis amenorrhea, bruises, pain, food stagnation. [0003] At present, after the rhizomes of Zezhu are harvested, they are usually washed, steamed or boiled until thoroughly, dried or dried at low temperature to remove fibrous roots and i...

Problems solved by technology

The existing process is time-consuming and laborious, and the process is repeated, which increases the production cost of decoction pieces

In this process, it will not only lead to a large loss of water-soluble active ingredients, but also if the moistening process is carried out in high-temperature seasons, it is easy to cause mildew of the medicinal materials, which will lead to a decline in the quality of the medicinal materials and the reduction of clinical efficacy.
