    Area of Science:

    • Zoology
    • Pharmacology
    • Bioinformatics

    Background:

    • DNA barcoding technology is crucial for accurate species identification.
    • Existing databases lack comprehensive coverage for Chinese animal medicines.
    • Ensuring the authenticity of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is vital.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To construct an integrated DNA barcoding database for identifying Chinese animal medicines.
    • To validate barcode records using multiple analytical methods.
    • To provide a user-friendly platform for species identification.

    Main Methods:

    • Collected and analyzed DNA sequences from GenBank.
    • Employed BLAST, barcoding gap, and tree-building methods for reliability checks.
    • Integrated specimen, sequence, and literature data.

    Main Results:

    • Developed a database containing approximately 800 animal medicines, including adulterants and related species.
    • Validated the accuracy of barcode records through rigorous analysis.
    • Created an online identification system (www.tcmbarcode.cn).

    Conclusions:

    • The integrated DNA barcoding database is a significant advancement for Chinese animal medicine identification.
    • The database supports conservation efforts for rare and endangered species.
    • It promotes the sustainable utilization of animal resources in TCM.
