- Abstract
[Objectives] This study was conducted to identify the microscopic characteristics of Chenopodium album L. [Methods]The microscopic identification method was adopted. [Results] The xylem vessels and fiber bundles of the roots are arranged into 3-4 intermittent ring belts in a concave-convex pattern, alternately with the parenchymal cell ring belts; and the xylem rays vary in width. The cross section of the stems is polygonal; there are parenchyma cells at the corners of the cortex; there are many vascular bundles of varying sizes; and calcium oxalate clusters are common in the medulla and cortex. There are 2 to 4 vascular bundles in the main leaf vein, peltate; and fiber bundles exist below the phloem. The powder is characterized by numerous clusters of calcium oxalate, which are uniform in size, sharp at edges and corners. [Conclusions]This study can provide reference for the identification and quality standard of the crude drug.
