Identification of authenticity

The outer skin is rough, and some can see brown or reddish-brown oval transverse lenticels. There are slight longitudinal folds on the inner surface. There are irregular yellow and white bands near the skin. Hard and brittle, easy to break, fibrous and flaky in cross section, easy to peel off layer by layer. The breath is slightly fragrant, the taste is light, slightly astringent, and it stings the tongue. Albizia Albizia bark has few cracks and reddish-brown lenticels. The outer surface of cortex fraxini is covered with gray-white punctate lenticels, and the dry skin often cracks to form longitudinal grooves, which tastes bitter. Because cortex fraxini contains coumarin, the water extract shows blue fluorescence under natural light.
