Abstract
As a result of administration of Coptidis Rhizoma extract and Zingiberis Rhizoma extract to Rat and Rabbit, its effect to the Gastric Juice Volume, Acidity, Pepsin out put of Rat and the movement of Intestine, Pulse Rate of Rabbit was as follows; 1. In the secretion of Gastric Juice, the Juice Volume in Coptidis Rhizoma administered group in contrast to Control Group, has increased in 30mg the increasing rate 21.4%, and has decreased in 300mg the decreasing rate 113.9%. But the Juice Volume in Zingiberis Rhizoma administered group has all decreased in 12, 30, 60, 120mg, and has remarkably decreased in 60mg the decreasing rate 62.9%. 2. The Gastric Acidity in Coptidis Rhizome administered group, in contrast to Control Group, has increased in 30, and 75mg, but no significant value, and has decreased in 300mg the decreasing rate 104.7%. But the Gastric Acidity in Zingiberis Rhizoma administered group has all decreased in 12, 30, 60 120mg, and has remarkably decreased in 60mg the decreasing rate 105.6%. 3. The Pepsin out-put in Coptids Rhizoma administered group, in contrast to Control group, has increased in 30mg the increasing rate 30.3%, and has decreased in 150, 300mg, no significant value. But the Pepsin out-put in Zingiberis Rhizoma administered group has all decreased in 12, 30, 60, 120mg, and has remarkably decreased in 60mg the decreasing rate 86.4%. 4. In the movement of Intestine, the contraction Coptidis Rhizoma administered group, in contrast before the administration, has increased in 12mg, but has begun to decrease in 30mg, and has remarkably decreased in 70mg. The contraction in Zingiberis Rhizoma administered group, in contrast before the administration, has all increased in 30, 60, 120mg. 5. In Pulse Rate, the pulsation, in contrast to Control group after 60, 120 180, 240min. has decreased in Coptidis Rhizoma administered group, and has increased in Zingiberis Rhizoma administered group, but no significant value.
