琥珀是一种颇为贵重的较常用中药材。现介绍几种琥珀的简易鉴别法: 1.咀嚼法:真品嚼之有沙沙声,但无砂砾感,味淡;伪品味苦有松香气,久嚼发粘。2.燃烧法:琥珀燃之易熔,稍冒黑烟,刚熄火时冒白烟,微有松香气。伪品燃烧时冒浓黑烟,有浓松香气。3.水检法:琥珀不溶于水,加水煮沸不溶化不变软。若加热后变软或溶化,可能是松香或其它树脂。
Amber is a more valuable and more commonly used Chinese herbal medicine. Here are a few simple methods to identify amber: 1. Chewing method: the chewing of the real product is rustling, but no gravel, tasteless; fake taste bitter rosin gas, long chewing sticky. 2.

The counterfeit product emits dark smoke and has a strong rosin gas when it burns. 3. Water test method: amber is insoluble in water, and it is insoluble without softening by boiling. If softened or melted after heating, it may be rosin or other resin.
