國內市售中藥材勳硫磺情況之調查研究

中藥材在貯存加工過程中常發生蟲蛀、發霉或變色等質變現象，中藥業者因此常施以燻硫磺之加工，以保存藥材，唯燻硫磺後其硫磺或硫化物殘留量是否過量或危害人體，值得重視。
本研究調查台灣各地市售中藥材燻硫磺情形之現況，實地訪察中藥材之燻硫磺加工，並以中醫藥委員會本年度所列優先管制之六味地黃丸、加味逍遙散之組成藥物為對象，並加上中藥業者較常進行燻硫磺之藥材山茱萸、山藥、白朮、白芍、白果、地黃、乾薑、羌活、茯苓、藕節、葛根、桑白皮、獨活、梔子、柴胡、當歸、甘草、黃耆、晉耆、澤瀉、牡丹皮、栝樓根等二十二種，在台灣地區北、中、南各地收集上述藥材檢品各10個進行硫磺煙燻殘留物檢驗。以瞭解目前國內常用藥材燻硫磺情況，並建議訂出合理之硫磺殘留量標準，以為中藥藥政施政參考，進而提昇藥效及中藥品質，確保國人用藥安全。

Investigation of Sulfur Fumigating Processing of Chinese Crude Drugs in Taiwan

Chinese crude drugs often suffer deterioration due to insect pest, mold or discolor. People often use sulfur fumigating methods to prevent and solve the problem. However, the sulfur residue remained in the crude drugs may do harm to the human health, therefore, a survey of the current situation of sulfur fumigating processing is necessary.
This project will investigate the current statue of sulfur fumigating processing in Taiwan. We will visit the drug stores which practice sulfur fumigating processing. Ten specimen of each of the 22 crude drugs which were listed as priority for quality control in the current year and commonly fumigating with sulfur will be collected from various part of Taiwan for sulfur residue examination.
The crude drugs that will be examined are listed below: Corni Fructus, Dioscoreae Rhizoma, Atractylodis Rhizoma, Paeoniae Radix, Ginkgo Semen, Rehmanniae Radix, Zingiberis Rhizoma, Notopterygii Rhizoma, Poria, Nelumbinis Stamen, Puerariae Radix, Mori Cortex, Gar
