1. Antibacterial effect

Outside the body, it has an inhibitory effect on a variety of bacteria (Salmonella typhi, Salmonella paratyphi, Escherichia coli, Proteus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bordetella pertussis, Vibrio cholerae, as well as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Pneumococcus, meningococcus, etc.). Each company reports different sensitivity to various pathogens. Generally speaking, it has a stronger effect on Salmonella, especially on Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi outside the body; when the concentration is high, it can inhibit Shigella, and when the concentration is low, it has a stronger effect on Shigella dysenteriae, less effective on Shigella dysenteriae, and almost ineffective on Shigella flexneri. It is also said that honeysuckle tea extract is effective against Staphylococcus aureus but not against Escherichia coli. It also has an antibacterial effect on some common pathogens in chronic bronchitis (pneumococcus, group A streptococcus infection, catarrhal gram-negative bacilli) (tablet method). In addition, it can cause sensitive bacteria to undergo a shape change that results in bacterial expansion outside the body, while the Gram staining properties will not be affected. High-pressure disinfection and sterilization can significantly affect its antibacterial effect. The efficacy also weakens after frying. Its true composition has not been clearly stated yet. It was previously reported to be a non-evaporable oily substance with high water solubility and relatively stable properties. The frozen liquid can be kept for 3 to 4 weeks and still has an antibacterial effect. It is said that the leaves have stronger antibacterial effects than the flowers, but scientific research is still needed.

Honeysuckle tea has some inhibitory effect on human tuberculosis outside the body. In the experimental treatment of mice after vaccination with human tuberculosis, honeysuckle tea can also significantly alleviate lung lesions, but tuberculosis can still be detected in direct acid-fast staining and tissue analysis of human organs. Its aqueous solution (1:4) has a slight inhibitory effect on multiple skin fungi outside the body. Although the decoction has little effect on skin fungi outside the human body, some bacteria showed different degrees of green halo in the culture medium containing honeysuckle tea (30%), the practical significance of which remains to be demonstrated. The antibacterial effect of the decoction on Leptospira outside the body is stronger than that of the alcohol extract, but weaker than that of Scutellaria baicalensis or Litchi herb. It can also slow down the pathogenic effects of respiratory viruses on body cells. Yinqiaosan mixture has an effective elimination effect on PR strain of influenza virus outside the human body; but in the chicken embryo, it has no effect on the reproduction of the virus.

2. Other functions

When rats that fasted to this diet were given a large amount of cholesterol and then given honeysuckle tea (2.5 g/kg), their blood cholesterol levels were lower than those in the control experiment. Therefore, honeysuckle tea seems to reduce the gastrointestinal absorption of cholesterol. The fluid extract has no significant effect on the inspiration, blood pressure and urination of rabbits and dogs. The inspiration force is slightly increased and the blood pressure changes slightly, but not consistently. It is not completely digested and absorbed whether taken orally or injected. It has a stimulating effect on some parts. The toxic side effects are not serious, and the median lethal dose when injected into the subcutaneous tissue of mice is 53 grams/KG. It is also reported that honeysuckle tea water infusion has a slight preventive effect on gastric ulcer induced by cardiac ligation surgery in rats. If it is mixed with pig kidney, coix seed, ginseng, Poria cocos and pearl, the preventive effect is stronger. The extract of the mixture has no direct effect on tumor cells, but can alleviate the specific decrease of catalase and choline esterase in cancer-causing proteins.

Production of Chinese medicine vaccine honeysuckle tea: sieve out fine sand. Pick out the residue. Honeysuckle charcoal: Take clean honeysuckle tea, put it in a pot and fry it over low heat until it turns dark brown, spray it with cold water, remove it and let it dry.
