Chancre Wash Decoction
Segam-tang
한글 세감탕 · Pinyin Xi Gan Tang
The transcription writes 川鍊子; the 初刊本 reads 練, and the collation note 鍊 : 練 stands on its own line at the 047a/047b page boundary two leaves below. The transcription's reading is printed here under the project's 底本 rule, with the variant recorded; the corpus prints 川練子 for the same drug elsewhere and the drug is entered under cheollyeonja. 醫鍳 is normalized to 醫鑑. 葱根, the roots of the scallion, is entered under 生葱. The 靑布, the blue cloth the liquor is carried on, is the applicator and is kept in the method rather than as an ingredient.
