Abstract: Viola yedoensis Makino is a plant of Violaceae, also known as Viola liao, Viola wild, Viola glabra, etc.It has a long history of drug use and it is a traditional Chinese herbal medicine plant in China.It tastes bitter, pungent, cold, and has the functions of clearing heat, detoxification, cooling blood, detumescence, clearing heat and dampness.It is mainly used to treat boils, carbuncle, scrofula, jaundice, dysentery, diarrhea, etc.In recent years, it has been shown that Viola yedoensis Makino has anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant and other effects through modern pharmacological research and clinical treatment of humans and animals.In addition, since 2020, China has stipulated that the addition of antibiotics and some antibiotic veterinary drugs are prohibited in feed, so as to reduce the harm caused by the abuse of antibiotics and maintain the safety of animal derived food and public health.Chinese veterinary medicine products are derived from natural plants and animals, and have the advantages of multi-component, multi-function and multi target.They are also used for the whole animal body, rather than purely for pathogens.Therefore, the author reviewed the latest research progress of the pharmacological effects of Viola yedoensis Makino, such as antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidation, anti-virus, immune regulation, anti-cancer and so on, and it provides a theoretical basis for the subsequent research of Viola yedoensis Makino as a Chinese veterinary drug or feed additive.
