Objectives : This study was to assessment the toxicity of Sipjeondaebo-tang(Shiquan dabu-decoction) by Chromosomalanomaly test. Methods : Sipjeondaebo-tang(Shiquan dabu-decoction) water-extract in vivo Chromosomalanomaly test was performed using chiness hamster lung cell line. Results : Sipjeondaebo-tang water extract was negative in Chromosomalanomaly test at the doses of 0, 625, 1250 and $2500{\mu}g/m\ell$ at 6h and 24h.(S9- fraction). Chromosomalanomaly test(S+fraction) was also negative at the doses of 0, 1250, 2500 and $5000{\mu}g/m\ell$. Conclusions : It was concluded that Sipjeondaebo-tang extract did not induce Chromosomalanomaly in the chiness hamster lung cell.
