[Plant sources] legume licorice (Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch) dry root and rhizome,相思子Abrus precat orius L. leaf [Molecular formula and molecular weight] C42H62O16; 822.92 [Structure] [Physical properties] of glycyrrhizic acid as a white or light yellow crystalline powder, melting point 220 ℃, there is a special sweet, the sweetness of sugar is about 250 times, dissolved in hot water and dilute the hot ethanol, insoluble in ethanol and ether. [Pharmacological actions] glycyrrhizinate with adrenal cortical hormone-like role, can inhibit capillary permeability and reduce the symptoms of anaphylactic shock. Hypertensive patients can reduce serum bile alcohol. [Progress in research and development] glycyrrhizinate sweet licorice are the active ingredients, are commonly used by its water-soluble salt, known as the Su-sweet hay. Characterized by its high sweetness, low energy, safe non-toxic, foaming and low hemolysis. Thus, in medicine, food, cosmetics and other industries use a wide range. Su-sweet and sour licorice with a variety of alkaloids, antibiotics, amino acids, such as to generate double salt or compound preparation, with coordination, solubilization, increased drug stability, enhance bioavailability and reduced side-effects of the efficacy of low toxicity. Lot of metal salts of glycyrrhizic acid, the body can be properly absorbed by the savings of not poisoning caused by the elements. Therefore often used Jianpi appetizer preparation, cough Huatan, Shun Zhichuan gas, the treatment of chronic hepatitis, blood lipid lowering medicine. Japanese scholars of the sweet and sour licorice toxic pigment disease were screened, indicating that it is the proliferation of HIV and there is inhibition of cell degeneration. Glycyrrhizic Japan in 1986 reported that the inhibition of HIV up to 98% rate, therefore, referred to as the fight against AIDS Glycyrrhizic disease "stalls." Modern studies have proved that glycyrrhizic acid in licorice are the most important one of the active ingredients. With anti-inflammatory, anti-virus and liver detoxification and to enhance the role of immune function. Because there is glycyrrhizinate pharmacological glucocorticoid-like effects without serious adverse reactions in clinical treatment has been widely used in a variety of acute and chronic hepatitis, bronchitis, and AIDS. Also has anti-cancer anti-cancer agent interferon-induced regulation of cellular immune function, etc..
