The quality of Chinese herbal medicines is the key to the quality of traditional Chinese medicine. The processing of Chinese herbal medicines is an important part of the production and quality formation of medicinal materials. Traditional processing methods have low productivity and cannot guarantee the quality of Chinese herbal medicines. Among various non-thermal processing methods, ultrasonic technology has been proved to be a very valuable green processing technology. This paper will discuss the application of ultrasonic technology in the production and processing of Chinese herbal medicines in recent years, including the extraction, cleaning, drying and sterilization of effective components of Chinese herbal medicines. This review summarizes its principle, characteristics and application progress in recent years, and discusses its existing problems. The effects of ultrasound on the chemical structure and biological activity of bioactive compounds extracted from Chinese herbal medicines are mainly introduced. In addition, this paper discusses the effects of different ultrasonic conditions such as frequency, power, time and temperature on the chemical properties and processing of Chinese herbal medicines. In general, the use of ultrasound in the production and processing of Chinese herbal medicines has great application potential.
中药材质量是中医药质量的关键。中药材炮制是药材生产和质量形成的重要环节。传统炮制方法生产效率低，不能保证中药材的质量。在各种非热加工方法中，超声技术已被证明是一种非常有价值的绿色加工技术。本文将讨论近年来超声技术在中药材生产加工中的应用，包括中药材有效成分的提取、清洗、干燥和灭菌。本文综述了其近年来的原理、特点和应用进展，并探讨了其存在的问题。主要介绍了超声对中药材中生物活性化合物化学结构和生物活性的影响。此外，本文还讨论了不同超声条件（如频率、功率、时间和温度）对中药材化学性质和加工的影响。总的来说，超声技术在中药材生产加工中的应用具有很大的应用潜力。
