一名鹿角胶。生云中。煮鹿角作之。（得火良，畏大黄。）

法∶先以米沈汁渍七日令软，然后煮煎之，如作阿胶尔。又一法∶即细锉角，与一片干牛皮，

又名鹿角胶。产于云中地区。由煮鹿角制成。（遇火效果良好，畏大黄。）
陶隐居说：现在很少有人再煮制使用，只有制作角弓时还在用，也就是指使用这种胶罢了。作为药物使用也很稀少，道家时常需要它。
制作白胶的方法：先用米泔水浸泡七天使其变软，然后煎煮，如同制作阿胶的方法一样。另一种方法：将角细细切碎，与一片干牛皮一起煮，角就会消烂了。如果不这样做，两者相互排斥百年，也无法煮熟。唐本注说：麋角、鹿角，只要煮成浓汁再重煎，就成了胶，何必非要弄烂呢？想要弄烂也不难，大概是没见过煮胶的过程，错误地说了这种说法。臣禹锡等人谨按《药性论》说：白胶，又名黄明胶，能主治男子肾脏气衰，气虚导致的虚劳损伤。妇人服用能使有子，能安胎，去冷邪，治疗漏下赤白带下，主治吐血。
《图经本草》在阿胶条下有详细记载。
食疗方面：敷于肿处四周，中心留一个孔，肿胀就会自行破溃排出。治疗咳嗽不愈者，将黄明胶炙至半焦研为末，每次服一钱匕，配合人参末二钱匕，用薄豉汤一盏八分，加少许葱，放入铫子煎一至两沸后，倒入盏中，遇到咳嗽时呷饮三、五口，之后根据前述方法温热，待再次咳嗽时服用。另外，止吐血、咯血，用黄明胶一两，切成小片，炙至黄色；新绵一两，烧成灰细研，每次服一钱匕，用新米饮调下，不论年岁远近都适宜，饭后卧时服用。《外台秘要》治疗虚劳尿精。干胶三两炙，捣为末。用酒二升调和，温服。又一方：治疗凡已溃或未溃的肿毒。取胶一片，用水浸泡至软糯状，根据肿的大小，贴在头上开孔，如果已经溃破但伤口闭合，脓液会被胶粘住，迅速撮起，脓液即可排尽。没有脓液的，肿胀会自行消退。又一方：治疗尿血。胶三两炙，用水二升，煮取一升四合，分两次服用。又一方：补虚劳，益髓长肌，悦颜色，使人肥健。鹿角胶炙，捣为末。用酒服方寸匕，每日三次。《千金方》：治疗耳中有异物无法取出。用麻绳剪开使头散开，敷上好胶，放在耳中异物上，粘住使其相连，慢慢引出使之出来。《肘后方》：妊娠突然下血。用酒煮胶二两，溶化后顿服。《斗门方》：治疗肺破出血，忽然咳嗽不止者。用海犀膏一大片，在火上炙，令焦黄色后，用酥油涂之。又炙再涂，令通透可碾为末，用汤化开三大钱匕，放冷服之，即血止。这就是水胶，非常有效。又一方：治疗汤火疮。用水煎胶，令稀稠适中，待冷涂疮。谭氏小儿方：治疗小儿面上疮。豆子瘢法：黄明胶慢火炙为末，温酒调服一钱匕。出痘者服用无瘢痕，未出痘者服用可泻下。又治小儿火烧疮灭瘢痕，用黄明胶小鸡翎扫之。
The flavor is sweet, the nature is neutral and warm, and it is non-toxic. It primarily treats damage to the middle jiao (middle energizer), exhaustion due to overwork, lower back pain, emaciation, tonifies the middle qi, benefits qi and blood, treats amenorrhea and infertility in women, alleviates pain, calms the fetus, treats hematemesis (vomiting blood) and hematochezia (blood in stool), metrorrhagia and metrostaxis (uterine bleeding), soreness and pain in the four limbs, excessive sweating with dripping sweat, as well as fractures and traumatic injuries. Long-term consumption can lighten the body and prolong life.
Also known as Lu Jiao Jiao (Deer Antler Glue). Produced in Yunzhong. Made by boiling deer antlers. (Effective when heated, adverse reaction with Da Huang, Rhizoma Rhei Preparata.)
Tao Hongjing stated: Nowadays, few people boil and use it; it is only used for making horn bows, which refers to using this glue. As a medicinal ingredient, its use is also rare, but Daoists often require it.
Method for preparing Bai Jiao (White Glue): First, soak in rice washing water for seven days until soft, then boil and decoct, similar to the method for making E Jiao (Donkey-Hide Glue). Another method: finely chop the antlers and boil them together with a piece of dried cowhide; the antlers will dissolve and rot. Otherwise, they repel each other for a hundred years and will never cook properly. The Commentary on the Tang Materia Medica states: Cervi Cornu (Deer Antler) and Elaphanti Cornu (Elk Antler), if boiled into thick juice and re-decocted, become glue; why must they be rotted? Rotting them is not difficult; this statement is likely erroneous due to ignorance of the glue-making process. Minister Yuxi et al. carefully noted according to *Xing Yao Lun* (Treatise on Medicinal Properties): Bai Jiao, also known as Huang Ming Jiao (Yellow Bright Glue), can treat kidney qi deficiency in men, and qi deficiency leading to consumptive disease. Women taking it can conceive, it calms the fetus, dispels cold, treats leukorrhea (red and white discharge), and primarily treats hematemesis.
*Tu Jing Ben Cao* (Illustrated Classic of Materia Medica) has detailed records under the entry for E Jiao.
For dietary therapy: Apply around the periphery of the swelling, leaving a hole in the center, so that the swelling opens and drains spontaneously. To treat persistent cough: Roast Huang Ming Jiao until half-charred, grind into powder. Take one qian bi (approx. 3-5g) each time, mixed with two qian bi of Ren Shen (Ginseng Radix) powder. Use one cup and eight fen of Hou Chi Tang (Thin Fermented Soybean Decoction), add a little Cong Bai (Scallion White), boil in a ding pot for one or two boils, pour into a cup, and sip three to five mouthfuls when coughing occurs. Afterwards, keep warm according to the previous method, and take again when coughing recurs. Additionally, to stop hematemesis and hemoptysis (coughing up blood): Use one liang of Huang Ming Jiao, cut into small slices, roast until yellow; one liang of Xin Mian (New Cotton Wool), burn to ash and grind finely. Take one qian bi each time, taken down with Xin Mi Yin (New Rice Drink), suitable regardless of age or duration of illness, taken after meals and before lying down. *Waitai Miyao* (Essential Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold for Emergencies) treats consumptive disease with spermatorrhea. Dry glue three liang, roasted, ground into powder. Mix with two sheng of wine, take warm. Another prescription: Treats all swellings, whether ulcerated or not. Take a piece of glue, soak in water until soft and pliable. According to the size of the swelling, apply it to the head of the swelling and make a hole. If already ulcerated but closed, the pus will be adhered to the glue; quickly lift it, and all pus will drain out. If there is no pus, the swelling will subside spontaneously. Another prescription: Treats hematuria. Three liang of glue, roasted, boiled in two sheng of water to obtain one sheng and four he. Divide into two doses. Another prescription: Tonifies deficiency and exhaustion, benefits marrow, promotes muscle growth, beautifies complexion, makes one fat and strong. Lu Jiao Jiao (Deer Antler Glue), roasted, ground into powder. Take one fang cun bi (approx. 5-10g) with wine, three times a day. *Qian Jin Fang* (Prescriptions Worth a Thousand Gold): Treats foreign bodies in the ear that cannot be removed. Cut hemp rope so the end is frayed, apply good glue, place it on the foreign body in the ear, stick it firmly, and slowly pull it out. *Zhou Hou Bei Ji Fang* (Handbook of Prescriptions for Emergencies): Sudden vaginal bleeding during pregnancy. Boil two liang of glue in wine until dissolved, take in one dose. *Dou Men Fang*: Treats lung rupture with bleeding, sudden continuous hemoptysis. Use a large piece of Hai Xi Gao (Sea Rhino Glue), roast over fire until scorched yellow, then apply Su You (Butter/Oil). Roast and apply again until transparent enough to be ground into powder. Dissolve three da qian bi (approx. 9-15g) in hot water, let cool, and take orally; bleeding stops immediately. This is Shui Jiao (Water Glue), highly effective. Another prescription: Treats scalds and burns. Boil glue in water to the right consistency, let cool, and apply to the wound. Tan Shi Xiao Er Fang (Tan's Pediatric Formulas): Treats facial sores in children. Dou Zi Ban Fa (Bean Spot Scar Method): Roast Huang Ming Jiao slowly over low heat into powder, take one qian bi mixed with warm wine. For those who have had smallpox, it prevents scars; for those who have not, it induces purgation. Also treats pediatric burn scars: sweep with a chicken feather dipped in Huang Ming Jiao.
