Abstract

The effect of Codonopsis ussuriensis on red blood cell(RBC) count in rats was investigated. Among various fractions tested, a significant increase of RBC was observed in animal group treated with ether extract. From the ether soluble fraction, two compounds were isolated and their structures were elucidated as ${\alpha}-spinasterol$ and ${\beta}-sitosterol$ by chemical and spectral analyses.
