熊胆,哺乳纲熊科动物黑熊和棕熊的胆囊。入药史载于《唐本草》。黑熊又名狗熊,俗名黑瞎子;棕熊又名人熊、马熊。吉林省东部长白山区盛产黑熊与棕熊,因此为我国熊胆的主要产区之一。药材行业称吉林熊胆为“东胆”。干燥熊胆呈扁卵形,上部狭细,下部膨大,一般长10~20厘米,直径5~8厘米,色黑或 Bear bile, gall bladder, black bear and brown bear gall bladder. The drug history is contained in “Tang Ben Cao.” The black bear is also known as the bear and the common name is the black box; the brown bear is also known as the bear and the horse bear. The Changbai Mountain area in eastern Jilin province is rich in black bears and brown bears, and is therefore one of the major producing areas for bear bile in China. The medicinal material industry claims that Jilin bear gallbladder is “Dongguan”. The dry bear gallbladder is flat and ovate. The upper part is narrow and the lower part is enlarged. It is usually 10-20 cm in length, 5-8 cm in diameter, and black in color.
