我国的中药材资源丰富,是主要的中药材生产国。随着环境问题日益严重、中药资源日益短缺,运用传统方法开发中药材已不能满足社会需求。因此,对中药材如何进行最合理利用,是摆在医药科技人员面前最为严峻的挑战。综合运用各相关学科知识,以及各种新型技术相结合,对中药材进行交叉研究,是提高中药材综合利用和可持续发展最为有效的手段,也是未来中药材研究的趋势。

China is a major producer of Chinese materia medica (CMM) and has abundant resources. With the increasingly serious environmental pollution and shortage of CMM resources, the traditional way of CMM development has fallen behind of the needs of the society. Therefore, it has become the most serious challenge for reserchers to make the most rational use of CMM. Using all relevant knowledge as well as a variety of new technology, to have a cross-disciplinary research of CMM is the most efficient way to improve the comprehensive utilization of CMM and maintain sustainable development, and also the trend of future research on CMM.
