ABSTRACT

Objective : Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen has been used by East Asian doctors who approved efficientclinical effects of it since the early stage of medical history. It is commonly used forlifestyle related diseases including stroke in recent days thanks to the increasing numberof manufacturers. However, products from pharmaceutical companies as well as foodcompanies are not classified as Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen but Bamboo vinegar. This study aims to discern disparate manufacturing process. Methods : In this study, original texts were searched to corroborate the correct method toproduce Bambusae Caulis in Liquamen. It is essential to inspect the original textsthoroughly in the course of modernizing traditional knowledge. Result : Discrimination between the two substances starts from manufacturing process; BambusaeCaulis in Liquamen is made under the temperature of less then 170℃, containing mildfragrance and sweet taste, and the Bamboo vinegar over 170℃ upto 400℃, carrying strongsmoky scent and acidness. Although some researches show conforming clinical actions of bothproducts, still there is a possibility that closer clinical study would reveal their discrepancy. Conclusion : Current use of Bambusae vinegar needs speculation. Authenticity in propermanufacturing process can be attained through passed-on medical texts.
