Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix) is a traditional Chinese medicine in China, which was first published in Shennong Bencao Jing. Its chemical composition is diverse, containing steroidal saponins, high isoflavones, polysaccharides, amino acids, volatile oils and other chemical components. Modern studies have shown that Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix) has pharmacological effects such as protecting cardiovascular system, nervous system, digestive system, relieve liver and lung injury, anti-inflammation, anti-tumor, antioxidant, hypoglycemic, anti-aging and so on. In this paper, it summarized the chemical composition and pharmacological effects of Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix), and predicted and analyzed the quality markers of Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix) based on the concept of quality marker (Q-Marker) of traditional Chinese medicine, from the aspects of plant affinity, traditional medicinal properties and efficacy, traceability of chemical components, different origins and harvesting periods, compounding and compounding, and the measurability of chemical compositions, with the aim of establishing a comprehensive and scientific quality control system of Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix). This study is intended to provide a basis for the establishment of a comprehensive and scientific quality control system for Maidong (Ophiopogonis Radix).
