Abstract
This experimental study was designed to investigate the effect of water extracts of Chukchunwhan on the urine metabolism in rat. The results are summarized as follows ; 1. Treatment with Chukchunwhan-extracts increased excreted-urine volume of rat at the first week, however markedly decreased the excreted-urine volume at 2nd week. 2. Chukchunwhan-extracts inhibited the high level of excreted-urinary protein from rat for two weeks. 3. Chukchunwhan-extracts did not affect on the excreted-urine components of rat except for urinary protein. The results suggest that water-extracts of Chukchunwhan can be applicable to the abnormal volume of urine without medical poisoning, which have been used in the all sort of urinary diseases.
