中藥質(zhì)量是保證中藥安全性的決定因素，質(zhì)量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)缺陷是導(dǎo)致中藥出現(xiàn)安全問題的根源。中藥質(zhì)量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的缺陷主要表現(xiàn)在同一物種的不同部位做同一種中藥使用、用一種化學(xué)成分或幾種化學(xué)成分評(píng)價(jià)不同中藥的質(zhì)量、用不同含量的化學(xué)對(duì)照品評(píng)價(jià)功能相同的中藥質(zhì)量、從生物高度同源性確定植物的可藥用性、用化學(xué)成分的含量判定中藥的質(zhì)量、從單純的物種資源的角度研究中藥資源和質(zhì)量、按照西醫(yī)西藥的思維方式來使用中藥等方面。

Quality standard of Chinese materia medica (CMM) is a determinant to ensure safety. Defect of quality standard is the cause of safety problems of CMM. Defect of quality standards of CMM is mainly manifested in nine aspects, such as different parts of the same species for one CMM, a chemical composition or several chemical compositions for different CMM, reference substances with different contents for evaluation of CMM with the same function, from being a highly homologous to determine the druggability of medicinal plant, content of chemical components for the quality of CMM, from pure species resources for CMM resources and quality, in accordance with the Western medicine way of thinking for using CMM.
