Its diameter is 2 ~ 5 mm, and its surface is light brown or yellowish brown. After the seed coat is peeled off, the embryo is not sleeve-shaped. After soaking in water, observed under a magnifying glass, it becomes gelatinous, smooth and has irregular short lines.

Inferior product

Some immature seeds are mixed in the genuine product, which are slightly smaller in shape and darker in color than the genuine product. They don't spin silk in boiling water, and real dodder will spin silk in boiling water soon. However, immature seeds only change color (turn yellow) no matter how long they are cooked, but they are still very hard and will not break even if they are pressed with nails. This immature seed is always mixed with genuine products, but it will appear at the bottom of the beaker when boiled in water. If 30% appears in the beaker, then this dodder can't be used as medicine.
