Saponin Contents in Various Parts of Raw Red Ginseng

A statistical analysis of saponin contents in various parts of raw red ginseng was studied. Saponin contents in main lateral and fee roots showed highly significant differences each other. Saponin contents in raw red ginseng had highly negative correlation with the root diameter (r= -0.926**). The estimation of saponin contents at mixing ratios of parts of root appeared to be possible.
