Application of differential scanning calorimetry to study the interpretation on herbal medicinal drugs:a review

摘要

Background:Differential scanning calorimetry as a method of investigating and monitoring the kinetics of herbal medicinal plants.Some instrumental and experimental aspects are discussed.Methods:A brief survey is made of herbal medicinal plants and results of differential scanning calorimetry studies are reviewed and this discussion is presented the effects of the instrumental conditions like heating rate and the sample conditions like sample particle size,sample mass,sample purity,sample stability in the melting region and property of impurities.Conclusion:This study suggests that application of differential scanning calorimetry to study the interpretation on herbal medicinal drugs.
