Paraquat, one of the potent herbicides, causes fatal damage to many vital organs, when orally ingested, resulting in circulatory failure, respiratory distress syndrome, and a few other serious problems, but there is no known specific antidote against it. Of the possible problems related to paraquat intoxication, oliguric acute renal failure, which has been known to develop within 24 or 48 hours after intoxication, are notoriously life-threatening. So we attempted to investigate the clinical characteristics and progress of paraquat-induced acute renal failure and the therapeutic possibilities of herbal medicines. All of the fifteen subjects were treated with intravenous fluid injection of 5% dextrose saline or 10% dextrose water in conjunction with herbal medicines which were used for oral administration or gargling. Gamdutang, a decoction of Semen Glycin(黑豆 200g) and Radix Glycyrrhizae(甘草 100g) with addition of other herbs when necessary, was administered orally. At the same time, gargling fluid, consisted of Chinese ink(墨汁), char-frying powder of Rhei Rhizoma(大黃炒炭末), Succus phyllostachyos(竹瀝), was used to detoxify the oral cavity. Serum levels of Blood Urea Nitrogen(BUN) and Creatinine reached its peak on the third day of hospitalization, but then decreased and fell within the normal range on the 7th day and remained there. Serum levels of Na+ and K+ decreased down below the lower limits of normal range on the 7th day and on the 3rd day, respectively. Then they returned back within normal limits. Mean urine output on the 1st day of hospitalization was 1,050ml and it continuously increased to reach more than 2,000ml on the 14th day. From that day on, it stayed over 2,000ml. Fifteen cases of acute renal failure caused by paraquat intoxication were treated with combined treatments of oriental and western medicine in our hospital. However, we think that it is necessary to study further about the way to combine oriental and western medicine, to find out a more effective treatment method.

Paraquat is a nonselective contact herbicide that may induced damage to many organs poisoned with it. But there is no effective treatment modality. This report is about one case of treatment for paraquat poisoning. The patient was hospitalized of Wonkwang university Gwangju Oriental Medical Hospital at the department of Internal Medicine. For 26 days of hospitalization period, the authors supplied gamdutanggami(甘豆湯加味), which consists of Radix glycyrrhizae(甘草), Semen Glycine(黑豆), burned powder of Rhizoma rhei(大黃沙炭末), Succus phyllostachyos(竹瀝) and chinese ink(墨汁), decoction of Galla chinensis(五倍子) and Radix glycyrrhizae(甘草), and fluid. And then he showed improvement of condition and returned to a daily life. This report has a limitation for proof of oriental medicine remedial value. Because this is the only one case of a small quantity of paraquat poisoning patient less than 20cc. Actually there are a few paper regarding the Oriental medicine remedial value in paraquat poisoning patient, so we hope luther study and report ensue.

전통 오방색 중 흑색 재현을 위하여 오배자, 신나무 잎, 감즙, 밤껍질, 묵즙 등을 이용하여 한지에 천연염색을 실시하였다. 흑색 염색을 위해 염료별 단독염색 및 복합염색을 행하였고, 매염제 및 염색순서를 달리하여 색상의 발현 특성을 조사하였다. 아울러 염료의 농도(o.w.f) 변화에 따른 염색 특성을 조사하여 흑색 발현을 위한 최적 염색조건을 구명하였다. 한지의 흑색 천연염색 발현에 있어 오배자가 가장 중요한 염료 물질로 나타났으며, 복합염색의 경우 오배자 염색 $\rightarrow$ 초산구리 매염 $\rightarrow$ 신나무 잎 염색 $\rightarrow$ 철 매염의 순서가 가장 우수한 흑색염색 특성을 나타냈다.

Paraquat is one of the widely used herbicides. But it is fatal, if it is consumed by people. Paraquat poisoning causes acute renal failure, hepatic dysfunction, and progressive respiratory failure. There are no effective antidotes to paraquat. This report is about one case's treatment for acute hepatitis caused by paraquat. The patient was hospitalized in the Department of Internal Medicine, Wonkwang University Oriental Medical Hospital in Chonju. The patient received the following treatments while in an acute stage : Gamdutanggamibang(甘豆湯加味方), which consists of Radix glycyrrhizae(甘草), Semen mungo(綠豆), burned powder of Rhizoma rhei(大黃炒炭末), Succus phyllostachyos(竹瀝), chinese ink(墨汁) and fluid therapy. The patient received Sagunjatanggamibang(四君子湯加味方) while in a chronic stage. The patient improved faster with the above treatments than with the conventional treatment. We hope that this report will help widening the clinical range of oriental medicine, and improve systemic efforts in treating paraquat poisoning cases.

본 연구에서는 한국산 시판 4종 한지의 강제적 열화 조건인 습 건열처리를 통하여 한지의 광학적 물리적 특성의 변화를 측정, 비교 검토하여 봄으로써, 현재 시판 한지의 안정성을 규명하고자 하였다. 인공 열화 전후의 비교에서 광학적 물리적 성질은 습열처리보다 건열처리의 경우에서 더욱 감소폭이 컸는데, 백색도, whiteness는 흑피로 제조된 순지에서 가장 크게 감소하였고 불투명도 역시 전체적으로 상승하는 경향 속에 흑피에서 가장 높게 상승하였다. 열단장은 백피의 경우가 최종적으로 가장 높은 강도를 나타냈으며, 인열강도는 흑피에서 급속히 감소하였다. 파열강도는 습열처리의 경우, 열화 후반부에서는 백피와 흑피의 값이 거의 비슷하였으나 내절도는 백피의 경우가 다른 펄프보다 월등히 높아 단순비교는 어려웠지만 열화처리에도 비교적 높은 내절도를 나타내었다. 따라서 흑피가 백피에 비해 열화에 약하다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 이외 다른 펄프를 혼합한 경우는 강도면에서 크게 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 결론적으로 한지는 습도에 비해 온도에 더 민감한 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 가장 높은 관심을 가졌던 묵즙에 대한 농도 및 색상의 열화는 특별한 경향을 발견하지 못하였다.
