Objective:
In order to use Citrullus colocynthis safety and correctly,The pharmacognosy of imported and cultivated Citrullus colocynthis was systematically studied.
Methods:
The morphological characters, microscopical identification, and thin layer Chromatograpy (TLC) were studied.
Results:
The characters of import and cultivated Citrullus colocynthis were approximately identical, but there were still some differences between them, such as: the fruit size of cultivated Citrullus colocynthis was largish, granulose were more, trachea were thicker, collenchyma were longer, the colour of spots in TCL were more clear.
Conclusion:
There were seldon difference between import and cultivated Citrullus colocynthis, and cultivated Citrullus colocynthis could take the place of import's if planted on a large scale.
