Abstract:Objective: Study on the content of several inorganic elements in Dipsaci Radix before and after stir frying with wine, and analyzed by grey relational grade analysis. Method: The content of inorganic elements were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy and atomic fluorescence spectrometry. Result: The content of inorganic elements, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Pb, Cd, As, and Hg, are different in the Dipsaci Radix before and after stir frying with wine, and with no overall upward or downward trend. Conclusion: The content and distribution of inorganic elements in Dipsaci Radix has changed after processed. The content of Fe, Mn and Zn has increase, especially the content of Mn. This may be one reason why wine fried Dipsaci Radix with the activity of nourishing liver and kidney.
