Abstract

Biophotons from three healthy subject's hands were measured every Friday for one year. The correlation coefficients between the left and right palms were found to be 9.0, and a similar value was also obtained between the left and right back of hands. However, the correlations between the palm and back of a hand turned out to be low, on the average only 0.5. These results are consistent with the result of Zhang's $CO_2$ production rate experiments on the acupuncture points. The high correlation between the left and right, and the low correlation between the palm and back are interpreted according to the acupuncture theory of meridians. The palm and the back correspond to the yin and yang meridians, respectively. And their behaviors are rather opposite, thus they show low correlations.

세 명의 건강한 피험자의 손에서 방출되는 생물광자의 측정을 매주 금요일에 6회씩 일년간 수행하였다. 좌우 손바닥의 생물광자 방출량의 상관계수는 0.9였으며, 좌우 손등의 경우에도 유사하였다. 손바닥과 손등의 상관계수는 평균 0.5로 나왔으며, 이 결과는 장웨이보의 $CO_2$ 발생률의 상관성과 부합되며, 한의학의 음경과 양경맥의 기능간 상관성으로 해석할 수 있음을 시사한다.
