Objective: To optimize the best producing area of Sharen (Fruetus Amomi). Methods: The eonlent of Bronyl Aeelate in Fructus Amomi of producing area was determined by GC. The content of total volatile oil was determined by distillation. Resuhs: Tbe content of Bronyl Aeelate and total volatile oil in Fruetus Amomi of different origins from high to lowwas as follows: Yangchunsha〉Yuenansha〉Hainansha〉Laowosha〉Lvkesha〉 Miandiansha. Conclusion: Experimental data were provide...
