Abstract
This study used spectrophotometer to analyze the decontamination of Taxus to indoor air formaldehyde pollution, the air were collected by intelligence sampler with continuous sampling 20 min at 0.5 L/min, the drafting of standard curves was based on GB/T18204.2-20014, the linear equation is y=0.3624x+0.0061, and the correlation coefficient is 0.9995. The results of the air sample in different time for the test have shown that Taxus can improve the decontamination to formaldehyde in air, and Taxus Medias' decontamination were the best, next South Yew and finally Taxus yunnanensis. This paper also showed that there are broad prospects for Taxus in air purification.
