Four kinds of decoctions (Wolbi-tang, Wolbigachul-tang, Wolbigabanha-tang and Wolbi-tang with Psyllium Husk diet)was prescribed to examined the therapeutic effects on hyperlipidemia. Four decoctions prepared from the prescriptions were respectively administrated to the corpulent rats induced by a high cholesterol diet. Wolbi-tang mollified the increasing rate of the body weight, and decreased the amount of food eaten. It slightly increased the concentrations of blood Tc, blood TG, blood FFA, and lipids in feces, and decreased the contents of blood HDL-c. Wolbigachul-tang mollified the increasing rate of the body weight, and decreased the amount of food eaten. It decreased the amount of FFA and HDL-c lipids in the blood. Wolbigabanha-tang mollified the increasing rate of the body weight, and decreased the amount of food eaten. Also, it decreased the concentrations of blood glucose. However, it increased the content of blood HDL-c. Wolbi-tang with Psyllium Husk diet mollified the increasing rate of body weight, and decreased the amount of food eaten. Also, it slightly decreased the concentrations of blood TG and blood FFA, but increased the concentrations of blood Tc. Considering the above results, four kinds of decoctions(Wolbi-tang, Wolbigachul-tang, Wolbigabanha-tang and Wolbi-tang with Psyllium Husk diet) could be applied for the treatment of obesity, and Wolbigabanha-tang would be the most recommendable among them.

To compare the efficacy of Stephaniae Tetrandrae Rhizoma and Sinomenii Caulis which are medicinal plants used as Bang Kee(防己), the plants were combined with Astragali Radix and Lycopii Herba into 6 different medicinal decoctions. The specimen decoctions prepared were each decoctions of Stephaniae Tetrandrae Rhizoma(St), Sinomenii Caulis(Si), Stephaniae Tetrandrae Rhizoma-Astragali Radix(StA), Stephaniae Tetrandrae Rhizoma-Lycopii Herba(StL), Sinomenii Caulis-Astragali Radix(SiA) and Sinomenii Caulis-Lycopii Herba(SiL). They were dosed to rats with induced hyperlipidemia. In the groups of rats with hyperlipidemia induced by high cholesterol diet, in the group which St was dosed to, there was no significant effect on the level of Tc, TG, HDLc. And in the group which Si was dosed to, the level of Tc, TG dropped and that of HDLc rose. In the groups of rats with hyperlipidemia induced by high cholesterol diet, in the group which StA was dosed to, there was no significant change in the level of Tc, TG, or HDLc. But in the group which SiA was dosed to, the level of Tc and TG dropped and that of HDLc rose. In the groups of rats with hyperlipidemia induced by high cholesterol diet, in the group which StL was dosed to, the level of TG dropped, but there was no significant change in the level of Tc or HDLc. And in the SiL group, there was no significant change in the level of Tc or TG, but the level of HDLc rose. On diseases such as hyperlipidemia, when using drug couple of Bang Kee-Astragali Radix as a treatment, Sinomenii Caulis is recommended rather than Stephaniae Tetrandrae Rhizoma, and when using drug couple of Bang Kee-Lycopii Herba as a treatment, Sinomenii Caulis and Stephaniae Tetrandrae Rhizoma neither showed significant effect. And as Lycopii Herba interrupts the effect of Sinomenii Caulis, drug couple of Sinomenii Caulis-Lycopii Herba is not recommended.

Objectives: This study was intended to review the research trends of treating neuropsychiatric diseases and symptoms with Traditional Chinese Medicine containing Haematitum. Methods: Articles were obtained through the CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) by searching with 'Haematitum' as the main key word, and supportive words related with neuropsychiatric diseases and symptoms were selected. There were 61 articles related to clinical fields, which were then classified according to study design. Results: The 61 articles were categorized into the following types of study design: 3 randomized controlled trials, 1 quasi-randomized trial, 3 simple-designed clinical trials, and 54 case studies. Decoctions containing Haematitum were used to treat diseases and symptoms such as vertigo, headache, stroke, epilepsy, neurosis, globus hystericus, fishbilepoisoning, insomnia, mania, post-traumatic brain syndrome, and kinesia. All articles reported a good rate of effectiveness. There was no poor responsiveness regarding the effects of Haematitum in 9 studies, but it was not mentioned in the other 52 studies. Decoctions self-prepared by the authors were used in 28 studies. Modified Seonbokdeja-tang, modified Banhabeakchulcheonma-tang, modified Ondam-tang were used in that order of frequency. The daily dosage of Haematitum provided was 0.2~6 g in powder, and 9~60 g in decoction. Conclusions: Decoctions containing Haematitum are used restrictively in the neuropsychiatric clinical scene. While there were no reports of poor responsiveness of the effects of Haematitum, more research is needed to confirm its clinical stability.

Objectives : Decoction, in Korean Medicine, is a pharmacological method of extraction, by boiling, of dissolved chemicals, or herbal prescriptions, which may include stems, roots, bark and rhizomes. Decoctions differ from most teas, infusions, in that they are usually boiled. This study was performed to compare the difference of water decoctions extracted by different decoction extractor and extraction time and to analyze the reason of decoctions extracted by each decoction extractor have different taste. Methods : With water decoction samples by Pressure extractor, Non-pressure extractor and Ultrasonic waves merge extractor for 1 hr, 2 hr and 3 hr were investigated the yield and the concentration of hesperidin and glycyrrhizin by HPLC/DAD system in Pyungwi-san decoction. Results : The samples of each extractor were gradually increased the yield and the concentration of hesperidin and glycyrrhizin. The HPLC pattern of samples is similar. The yield and the concentration of hesperidin and glycyrrhizin of Ultrasonic waves merge extractor was most highest of the three. The rate of increase of the yield and the hesperidin concentration of between 1 hr and 2 hr in Pressure extractor was the most highest of the three. But the concentration of glycyrrhizin in Pressure extractor was relatively similar to Non-pressure extractor. Conclusions : The yield and the concentration of reference compounds in Pyungwi-san water decoction was influenced by extracting method and extracting time.

본 연구에서는 탕액에 존재하는 제랄레논의 분석을 위한 HPLC법을 확립하고 탕액조제 시 한약재로부터의 제랄레논 이행률을 조사하였다. 한약재 (괄루인, 두충, 복분자)에 제랄레논을 임의의 농도로 오염시켜 수침 및 비수침 과정을 거친 후 상압가열 ($100^{\circ}C$, 3 h)과 고압가열 ($121^{\circ}C$, 1 h)하여 탕액을 조제한 다음 탕액과 한약재 잔류물로 분리하고 immunoaffinity column으로 정제하여 분석에 사용하였다. 가열처리를 하지 않은 탕액 제조 전 원료 한약재에 대한 회수율은 괄루인 83.7-95.5%, 두충 81.9-99.7%, 복분자 79.1-82.3%로 분석에 이용이 가능한 것으로 확인되었고, 3종의 한약재 중 회수율이 가장 좋은 두충을 선택하여 탕액을 조제한 후 탕액과 한약재 잔류물에 대한 회수율 측정한 결과 탕액에서는 68.4-83.7%, 한약재 잔류물에서는 72.9-80.3%로 원재료 보다는 낮은 수준으로 확인되었다. 한약재에서 탕액으로 제랄레논의 이행률은 한약재 원재료에 제랄레논을 임의의 농도로 오염시킨 후 탕액을 조제하여 분석하였으며, 그 결과 탕액에서는 제랄레논이 검출되지 않았고, 괄루인과 복분자 잔류물에서는 수침 시료의 경우 17.04-22.99%, 비수침 시료의 경우 10.17-18.33%의 제랄레논이 검출되었다. 그리고 두충 잔류물에서는 수침 시료의 경우 10.44-17.16%, 비수침 시료의 경우 12.42-17.75%가 검출되었다. 본 연구에서는 탕액에서 제랄레논이 검출되지 않아 이행률은 낮은 것으로 판단되나 보다 탕액 조제과정 중 첨가물에 의해 이행이 일어날 수 있는 가능성은 여전히 존재하기 때문에, 제랄레논을 포함한 곰팡이독소에 안전한 한약재의 확보를 위한 지속적인 노력이 필요하다. 또한, 유통 중인 한약재를 포함하여 조제포장되어 판매되는 탕액에 대해서도 지속적인 모니터링이 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
