The plant origines of Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba and Atractylodis Rhizoma are genus Atractylodes*Compositae). Their origines in pharmacopoeia are slightly different among Korea, Japan, North Korea and China. The species of Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba are Atrctylodes japonica $K_{OIDZ}$. A. ovata $T_{HUNB}$.. Atractylodis Rhizoma are A. lancea DC., A. chinensis DC. and A. koreana $K_{ITM}$. But the texonomic genealogy of Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba is different from that of Atractylodis Rhizoma. The herbal origines of Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba and Atractylodis Rhizoma were not different at the early days. Since Tao-Hong-Jing(陶弘景) distinguished between Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba and Atractylodis Rhizoma at the very beginning, theri medicinal usages are different, Atractylodis Rhizoma have been used to remove pathogenic dampness in the digestive organs and Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba have been used to invigorate the digestive system and replenish qi. In additions, the figures and historical records of herbal appearance are different between Atractylodis Rhizoma Alba and Atractylodis Rhizoma. The diagnostics of them are in accord with the texonomic genealogies.

This study was designed to investigate the optimum recommendation level on Gatrodia rhizoma and the effects on the improvement of the lipids in the dietary hypercholesterterolemic rats. Experimental diets mixed with 5% Dioscorea batatas(Group 2), 10% Dioscorea batatas(Group 3), 15% Dioscorea batatas (Group 4) 5% Gastrodia rhizoma (Group 5), 10% Gastrodia rhizoma (Group 6), and 15% Gastrodia rhizoma (Group 7), were administered to the male rats of the Sprague Dawley for 3 weeks. Concentration of total cholesterol in serum was lower in the Gastrodia rhizoma groups than in the other groups, especially total cholesterol concentration of 10% Gastrodia rhizoma(Group 6) was the lowest in the Gastrodia rhizoma groups. Concentration of HDL-cholesterol in serum was higher in the 10% Gastrodia rhizoma and 15% Gastrodia rhizoma than in the other groups. Concentrations of cholesteryl ester, LDL, LDL-cholesterol in serum were the lowest in the 10% Gastrodia rhizoma. Concentration of glucose and activity of GPT in serum were the lowest in the 10% Gastrodia rhizoma group. The activity of GOT in serum was lower in the 10% Gastrodia rhizoma group and 15% Gastrodia rhizoma group than in the other groups. Therefore, we consider that there are effects on the improvement of the lipids in the Gastrodia rhizoma and the optimum recommendation quantity of Gastrodia rhizoma is 10% to quantity of food composition.

In order to investigate the effects of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma and Row Rhei Rhizoma on varied extract time in both endotoxin-induced blood stasis model(hereafter Endotoxin Model) and hydrocortisone acetate-induced blood stasis model (hereafter HA Model), Half of rats were treated with endotoxin(0.4mg/kg, single Ⅳ, into caudal vein) for Endotoxin Model. Thereafter, they were orally administrated water extract of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma or Row Rhei Rhizoma, which were boiled during 30, 60, 120 minute, respectively. Finally, the number of platelet, fibrinogen, prothrombin time, hematocrit, the number of RBC and WBC were measured after sacrifice. The remainder rats were treated with hydrocortisone acetate(10mg/kg, daily IM for 7 days into the muscular rump) for HA significantly decreased. Together, they were orally administrated for 7 days water extract of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma or Row Rhei Rhizoma that were boiled above methods Finally, the number of platelet, fibrinogen, prothrombin time, hematocrit, the number of RBC and WBC were measured after sacrifice. The results were summarized as follows : 1. The number of platelet was significantly increased in boiled water extract for 30 min of Row Rhei Rhizoma group as compared with that of control group in Endotoxin Model. 2. Fibrinogen level was significantly increased in all administration groups as compared with that of control group in Endotoxin Model. It was significantly increased in all administration groups except boiled water extract for 30 min of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma group as compared with that of control group in HA Model. 3. Prothrombin time was significantly shortened in boiled water extract for 60 min of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma group and boiled water extract for 120 min of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma group as compared with that of control group in Endotoxin Model It was significantly shortened all administration groups as compared with that of control group in HA Model. 4 Hematocrit was significantly increased in all administered groups except boiled water extract for 60 min of Alcohol-Steamed Rhei Rhizoma group and boiled water extract for 30 min of Row Rhei Rhizoma group as compared with that of control group in Endotoxin Model.

The GC pictures were taken to investigate the difference between the Zingiberis Rhizoma and the Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens. For the Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, there were many peaks in the GC pictures of the juice of that, but the decoction of that had vanished many big peaks and shown many new peaks. This result suggested that many elements had been created from the other elements. For the Zingiberis Rhizoma, even though it was similar to the decoction of the Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, that had vanished many peaks. This result suggested that many elements had been vanished during the drying period.

In order to evaluate acute toxicity of Coptidis rhizoma, 6 week- and 13 week-old male ICR mice received Coptidis rhizoma extract (600~4,800 mg/kg body weight) orally, and toxicological responses were observed for consecutive 7 days. In the mice received relatively high concentration of Coptidis rhizoma($\geq$1,200mg/kg), death occurred within 3 hrs after oral administration, and its ratio in 13 week-old mice was conspicuously higher than that in 6 week-old mice. $LD_{50}$ of Coptidis rhizoma were estimated to bi 2,575 mg/kg and 1,490 mg/kg body weight in 6 week and 13 week-old mice, respectively. Coptidis rhizoma-treated animals manifested a variety of abnormal clinical findings such as ptosis, crouching, lethargy, convulsion, bizarre behavior and truning sideway. These abnormalities also ranked highly in the 13 week-old mice compared to those in the 6 week-old mice. In addition to abnormal behaviors, Coptidis rhizoma($\geq$1,200 mg/Kg) significantly elevated the urinary contents of bilirubin, urobilirubin, protein and glucose, and values in 13 week-old mice was higher than those in 6 week-old animals. No toxicological response was observed at concentration less than 600 mg/kg. Our results clearly demonstrate that susceptibility of mice to Coptidis rhizoma may be related with age, indicating that younger age mice is more resistant to the Coptidis rhizoma than the older, and toxicological mechanism of Coptidis rhizoma may be closely associated with its pharmacological mechanism.

Objectives : A morphological classification among Pinelliae Tuber, Typhonii Flagelliformis Rhizoma and Arisaematis Rhizoma was made through microscopic observation. Method : The slice of the tested material made by paraffin section technique was colored with Safranine Malachite Green contrast methods, and then observed and photographed by olymphus-BHT. Result : 1. Pinelliae Tuber is like a ball with a $1{\sim}1.5cm$ diameter, with a concave apex and pockmarked root trace around. 2. Typhonii Flagelliformis Rhizoma is somewhat oval or like a cone, with a $4{\sim}8mm$ diameter, a $7{\sim}15mm$ height, a projected round apex, and a pin-pointed back. 3. Arisaematis Rhizoma is somewhat flat round with a $2{\sim}2.5cm$ diameter, a little than Pinelliae Tuber, and its apex has incomplete lobopodium and root trace. 4. Fundamental tissues of Pinelliae Tuber, Typhonii Flagelliformis Rhizoma, and Arisaematis Rhizoma have starch grains and mucilage cells, and their mucilage cells include the raphides of calcium oxalate. Conclusion : Internal forms of Pinelliae Tuber, Typhonii Flagelliformis Rhizoma, and Arisaematis Rhizoma are difficult to distinguish from one another, but Pinelliae Tuber and Arisaematis Rhizoma can be distinguished by their external forms and sizes, and Pinelliae Tuber and Typhonii Flagelliformis Rhizoma were distinguished by the forms of apex.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the Rhizoma on the blood pressure, heart rate and to define the mechanism of Notopterygii Rhizoma-induced relaxation in rabbit common carotid arterial contracted by agonists. Method : In order to explore the effect of Notopterygii Rhizoma on the blood pressure and heart rate, Notopterygii Rhizoma extract was injected in vein of rabbit ear. In order to investigate the effect of Notopterygii Rhizoma on norepinephrine(NE)-induced contracted rabbit carotid arterial strips, transverse strips with intact or damaged endothelium were used for the experiment using organ bath. To analyze the mechanism of Notopterygii Rhizoma-induced relaxation, Notopterygii Rhizoma extract infused into NE-induced contracted strips induced by agonists after treatment of methylene blue, propranolol, ouabain and it infused into serotonin, potassium chloride-induced contracted strips. Result : The blood pressure was significantly decreased by Notopterygii Rhizoma, but heart rate was insignificantly. In addition, Notopterygii Rhizoma significantly relaxed the norepinephrine, serotonin, potassium-induced contracted strips with intact endothelium or damaged endothelium. The relaxing effect of Notopterygii Rhizoma In NE-induced contracted strips with damaged endothelium by pretreatment of methylene blue, propranolol was not changed, but Ouabain was significantly decreased. Conclusion : These results were shown that Notopterygii Rhizoma affected the NE -induced contracted smooth muscle without the participation of endothelium, and demonstrated that the mechanism of NotoDtervgii Rhizoma-induced relaxation was the obstruction of receptor-operated Ca2+ channel.
