OK, Nick. I accept your point. Mea culpa!

I was being lazy, and thinking more of the TCM students /

practitioners more than western herbalists when I wrote the note. I

should have written:

Chaihu-Rx Bupleuri

Danshen-Rx Salviae miltiorrhizae

Fuling-Sclerotium Poriae cocos

Yimucao-Hb Leonuri.

That said, it is easy for anyone to input GROUPS of Pinyin Names

into Google to find their other names:

For example, try this search at http://www.google.com/

mahuang +xuanshen + ziwan +baihe +fangji +baizhu

The outputs are at http://tinyurl.com/5nc9t

Hit 1 is

http://members.shaw.ca/panclinic/panclinic/list%20of%20pairs.htm

It contains ALL of the searched Pinyin names, but NO Latin- or

common- names! Nevertheless, it has very valuable data for TCM

practitioners - PAIRS of medicinals used for several major

categories of TCM herbal action!

Hit 2 [ http://members.shaw.ca/panclinic/panclinic/herbpair.htm ]

will disappoint Western herbalists because it only has the pinyin

names, BUT it has valuable data on herb combinations for common

symptoms.

Hit 3 [ http://www.tomsvitalherbs.com/herbs_files/list_herbs.htm ]

is a powerful information source, because it has ALL the searched

pinyin names, PLUS the English names PLUS a very long list of

OTHER herbs + their actions!

HIT 4 [ http://www.pppindia.com/bb/msgs/703.html ] HAS the

pinyin AND Latin names

HIT 5 [ http://tinyurl.com/59mvb ] is in French. It has ALL the

PINYIN names, their Latin Names PLUS valuable data on the herb

classifications + TCM principles. [see data extracted from HIT 5, at

the end, below].

In fact, ALL hits to the profile above SHOULD contain ALL the

Pinyin names. By searching in this way [i.e. by entering GROUPS

of 6-10 herb names, capturing 10-20 or more of the main files,

editing and integrating them, one can build up a comprehensive set

of files with extremenly useful, quickly searchable data that

includes: Pinyin neme, Latin name, English name, Herb Class,

main actions, etc.

For example, those of you who are trying to develop your own

digital files on herbs might try the following search at

http://www.google.com/

sanqi xingren qinghao honghua huangbai zhuru

Several lists of which I am a member use the CHINESE (Pinyin)

name for their medicinals. Also, a simple search of Googlr throws

up the Latin Names.

A good reason for herbalists to LEARN what the Pinyin Names

denote (i.e. the Latin or Common English name) is because many

papers use ONLY the Pinyin or Hanzi term. Therefore, if one

searches for useful papers on Chinese Herbal Med using the Latin

or English name, one will miss many good papers. For example,

see http://www.aapspharmaceutica.com/search/view.asp?ID=5247

That paper has important data on the use of Bupleurum, Os

Draconis and Concha Ostreae, but those terms do NOT appear in

the abstract! Instead, the terms Chaihu, Longgu and Muli are used!:

" We report here that the traditional Chinese formulation, Chaihu-jia-

Longgu-Muli-tang (CLM), significantly inhibited the increase in

intimal thickening in rat carotid artery injured by balloon endothelial

denudation, which mimics many aspects of restenosis after

percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in humans. CLM, Saiko-

ka-Ryukotsu-Borei-to in Japanese, is commonly prescribed for

symptoms accompanying hypertension and atherosclerosis in

Japanese Kampo medical care. CLM administered orally 1 week

before and 1, 4 and 8 weeks after balloon injury inhibited the

increase in intimal area, intimal/medial ratio and stenosis ratio. To

our knowledge, this is the first report demonstrating inhibitory

effects of a traditional Chinese formulation on intimal thickening of

carotid artery after balloon injury. It is worth noting that CLM

maintained its inhibitory effect up to 8 weeks after balloon injury.

The reduction in intimal thickening by CLM could have resulted

from inhibition of intimal smooth muscle cell proliferation, which

was assessed by immuno-histochemical analysis using

monoclonal antibody against proliferating cell nuclear antigen.

Therefore, CLM may be a favourable candidate for prevention of

restenosis after PCI. Moreover CLM may have a therapeutic value

in the prevention of atherosclerosis, because restenosis after PCI

is considered to be an accelerated atherosclerosis. "

The value of searching by BLOCKS of Pinyin names is exemplified

by the following data, extracted from HIT 5, above, and edited (it

took 2 hours, but it was worth it!

The data show 20 of the main herb classes in TCM, and the pinyin

name of the class:

Chinese Proverb: " Man who says it can't be done, should not interrupt man doing

it "

CAUTION.......those who ONLY wish to read the latin and don;t study the

PinYin are going to be misinformed and potentially using the incorrect

form/substance.

The preparation is noted in the PinYin designation whereas simply using the

latin even though it might be the correct substance....will be most incorrect.

A simple example is Sheng Da Huang - rhubarb versus Da Huang Tan - both are

rhubarb except that the substances properties have greatly changed by its

preparation. These are bare basics yet they might be missed.
