The transformation of medicinal plants into substances with psychoactive properties usually involves a series of complex processing steps. These processes may include: 1. **Extraction**: The active ingredients are extracted from the plant using solvents (water, ethanol, methanol, etc.). This is the basic step to obtain high concentrations of active compounds. 2. **Concentration**: The solvent is removed by evaporation or vacuum distillation to concentrate the extract and make it more effective. 3. **Purification**: The extract is further purified using chromatographic separation techniques (such as column chromatography, thin layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, etc.) to obtain more single compounds. 4. **Chemical modification**: The extracted compounds are chemically modified in the laboratory to enhance their psychoactive properties or improve their pharmacokinetic properties. 5. **Fermentation and biotransformation**: The plant compounds are transformed into new compounds with psychoactive properties using the action of microorganisms or enzymes. 6. **Drying and powdering**: The plant extract or its purified products are dried and made into powder for easy use and storage. These processes need to be carried out under strict experimental conditions and are regulated by relevant laws and regulations to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the products. Please note that this type of processing often involves complex biochemical processes, specialized laboratory equipment and deep expertise.
