Identification of raw herbs: dried whole grass, oblate cylindrical or slightly thinner at one end, 8 ~ 21cm long and 2 ~ 5 cm in diameter. The surface is reddish brown to dark brown, with uneven shrinkage, forming thick longitudinal grooves or irregular depressions, sometimes triangular scales, and some inflorescences exist.

Cork layer is multi-row irregular cells. The boundary between cortex and stele is not obvious. There are many vascular bundles in the stele, which are irregularly distributed, and a constant number of them meet or scatter, and the outermost vascular bundle is small. The parenchyma cells of this product contain starch granules. Powder: light reddish brown. ① The starch grains are spherical or oval, with a diameter of 5-27 μ m, and the umbilicus points are star-shaped, trigeminal and cross-shaped, with large grain striations faintly visible; Compound granules consist of 2-(-3) fractions. ② Several parenchyma cells are connected or broken, and the cell cavity is full of brown matter and contains starch granules. After permeabilization with chloral hydrate solution, the starch granules dissolve, leaving round marks in the brown matter. ③ The diameter of reticulated and threaded conduits is15-42 μ m, the wall thickness is uneven, reaching 22μm, the conduit molecules are short, some are only 50μm long, and the end walls are mostly flat and have small circular perforations.

Chemical identification of traditional Chinese medicine: (1) Take the water leaching solution of this product 1ml, add 2-3 drops of 0.2% ninhydrin ethanol solution, heat in water bath for 3 minutes, and the solution turns blue-purple (amino acid reaction). (2) Thin layer chromatography: Take the powder of this product 1g, and add water1. In addition, proline and aspartic acid aqueous solution were taken as control, and then the samples were spotted on the silica gel H-CMC plate, and then developed in an oven at 40℃ with phenol-water (75: 25) as developing agent. After drying, 0.2% ninhydrin ethanol solution was sprayed and heated at 105℃ for 5 minutes to develop color. The chromatogram of the sample solution was the same as that of the reference solution.
