pomegranate root bark contains isoproterenol, β sitosterol and mannitol.
pomegranate bark contains alkaloids such as isoproterenol, pseudopomegranate rinine and methyl isoproterenol. The existence of so-called pomegranate rinine in early literature has not been confirmed, which may be isopomegranate rinine. Bark also contains β sitosterol, unfettered terpene, ursolic acid, carbinol O.5%%, sorbitol about 1%, glycerol .5%, sugar 3.56% and organic acid 19.7%. The dry skin contains about .34% boron.
The essential part of pomegranate contains .21% alkaloid. Most alkaloids in pomegranate roots exist in combination with tannins. 4.8 pharmacological action of pomegranate root
① anthelmintic action
pomegranate rinine has a very strong killing effect on crimson insects. pomegranate rinine hydrochloride at 1: 1 can kill crimson insects in 5 ~ 1 minutes, but it has an exciting effect on crimson insects at 1: 5. Later, it was proved that this active ingredient was actually isoproterenol. The anthelmintic effect of pseudopomegranate rinine is uncertain. Fresh pomegranate peel contains a lot of tannins. Clinical observation shows that the combination of alkaloids with tannins is better than that of those without tannins. This is because tannins can make alkaloids become insoluble and thus difficult to absorb compounds, which can fully play a role in intestinal parasites. Pomegranate peel has been replaced by better drugs because of its great toxicity.
② Antibacterial effect
In vitro tests on Staphylococcus aureus, hemolytic streptococcus, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella dysenteriae, typhoid and paratyphoid bacilli. Proteus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and mycobacterium tuberculosis have obvious inhibitory effects. It also has inhibitory effect on a variety of pathogenic fungi. Its antibacterial effect may be related to its large amount of tannin.
③ Anti-virus effect
First, the liquid medicine was injected into the allantoic cavity of chicken embryo, and then the influenza virus (PR8 strain A) was inoculated half an hour later or the virus was inoculated first and then the drug was injected. After 48 hours of incubation, the blood cell agglutination test was carried out, which proved that the pomegranate peel decoction could still inhibit the influenza virus when diluted to 1: 1 ~ 1: 1. Its function may also be due to the large amount of tannin.
