An Experimental Study on the Anti-stress Effect by Taeŭmin chŏngsimyonjat'ang

In order to, study the anti-stress effect of $Tae{\breve{u}}min$ $Ch{\breve{o}}ngsimy{\breve{o}}njat^{\prime}ang$, several measures of stress, including catecholmine changes, body weight changes, and gastric ulcers were used.the following result were observed: 1. Plasma epinephrine contents of stress by food in rats, in the controlled group were $219.3{\pm}18.4pg/ml$, but in the experimental group the value was decreased to $169.0{\pm}16.6pg/ml$. 2. Plasma norepinephrine content of stress by food in rats in the controlled group was $303.0{\pm}18.9pg/ml$ but in the experimental group the value was decreased to $243.6{\pm}17.6pg/ml$. 3. Plasma dopamine contents of stress by food in rats in the controlled group was $16.9{\pm}1.9pg/ml$ but in the experimental group the value was derceased to $12.8{\pm}1.5pg/ml$, but it was nonsignificant. 4. Effects of body weight of stress by food in the Shay rats in controlled group was $175.9{\pm}3.0g$, but in the experimental grou the value was increased to $187.7{\pm}4.8g$. 5. Gastric ulcers of stress by food in Shay Rats, in the experimental group, the glade was decreased more than in the control group. 6. It is considered that the anti-stress effect of Taeumin Chongsimyonjat' depends on its concentration rate. Based on the results above, it may be concluded that Taeumin chongsimyonjat' aug is effective to prevent the harmful effects of stress.
