The single dose toxicity of Hwangiaegongjinbo, an invigorator developed by Korea Medical Science Institute was evaluated in ICR mice and Sprague-Dawley rats. The aqueous solution of freeze-dried powder of Hwangiaegongjinbo or its original solution was once administrated orally to both sexes of mice and rats at dose of 2000 mg/kg, the recommended upper limit dose for acute toxicity. Water was administered to another group as control. after single adminstration, sign of toxicity were observed every hour for the first 6 hours and every day for 14 days. Neither sign그cant toxic sign nor death was observed during the observation period. In addition, no pathological changes were noticed in macroscopic examination at necropsy in those treated group. These results indicated that $LD_{50}$ of Hwangiaegongjinbo is greater than 2000 mg/kg in ICR mice and Sprague-Dawley rats.

랫트는 간질에 높은 감수성을 나타내기 때문에 간질의 연구에 실험실 모델로 많이 이용된다. 그러나 간질의 피낭유충을 랫트에 감염시킨 다음 랫트의 분변에서 충란을 검출해보면 충란의 검출률은 100%에 훨씬 못미쳐서 실험의 설계에 어려움을 겪는 경우가 흔하다. 이 연구에서는 우리나라에서 많이 사육되고 있는 4가지 스트레인(Sprague-Dawley, Fisher 344, the spontaneously hypertensive rats 그리고 Wistar-Kyoto)의 암 수 랫트에 간질의 피낭유충을 경구적으로 접종하고 분변검사와 부검을 실시하여 감염여부를 확인하였다. 충체회수율은 랫트의 성과 스트레인 간에 유의성 있는 차이를 보였는데 Sprague-Dawley계의 랫트가 가장 높은 충체회수율을 보였으며 평균 충체회수율은 암컷보다 수컷에서 높았다. 이 연구의 결과는 간질에 관한 연구 특히 간질구충제의 효능을 검정하는 시험에 유용한 지침이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Objectives: This study was performed to examine the single-dose toxicity of Samgihwalryeok pharmacopuncture. Methods: Forty six-week-old Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into four groups of 10 rats each; each group was then sub-divided into two smaller groups, one of five males and the other of five females. Group 1 (G1, control) received 1.0 mL of normal saline solution, while group 2 (G2, low-dose group), group 3 (G3, mid-does group, and group 4 (G4, high-dose group) received 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mL of Samgihwalryeok pharmacopuncture, respectively. Results: No mortalities or clinical signs were observed in the four groups. Also, no significant changes in body weights were observed among the group, and no significant differences in hematology/biochemistry, necropsy, or histopathology results were noted. Conclusion: The above findings suggest that treatment with Samgihwalryeok pharmacopuncture is relatively safe. Further studies on this subject are needed.

Objectives: The study was designed to evaluate the single dose toxicity of modified Bo-yang-Hwan-o-Tang (mBHT) in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Methods: The mBHT was once administrated orally to both sexes of rats at dose 2,000 mg/kg body weight which are the recommended maximum limit dose for acute toxicity. We recorded clinical signs of toxicity, body weight, gross and histological changes in target organs for all rats. Results: Neither significant changes of body weight not death was observed during the observation period in mBHT-administrated rats. Neither significant toxic signs not histopathological changes were shown during the observation period. There were not observed significant gross abnormality between the control and mBHT-administrated rats. Conclusions: These results indicated that the toxicity of mBHT is greater than 2,000 mg/kg body weight in SD rats.

Acute toxicities of DWH-01 (Ranitidine : Bismuth : Sucralfate= 1.5: 2 : 6) were investigated in Sprague-Dawley rats. Seven days after oral administration of DWH-01 with different doses (10 g/kg, 5 g/kg, 2.5 g/kg, 1.25 g/kg, 0.625 g/kg), we examined numbers of deaths, general signs, weight measurement and histopathological examination for both sexes of rats. Summaried results are: 1) No deaths were occurred, 2) There were no pathological and clinical differences compared with control group, 3) No significant changes of body weights were observed, and 4) In histopathological examinations of organs and tissues, there was some hemorrhage in a lung tissue of low dose group for male and female respectively, but it was thought to be caused by environmental factor. The results suggest that toxicity of DWH-01 is low and its $LD_{50}$ is over 10 g/kg in Sprague-Dawley rats.

The recombinant glycoprotein, LBD-005 (Lucky R & D Center, Biotechnology)stimulates the growth of stem cells and activates the development of the hematopoietic cell in a similar manner to the naturally occurring GM-CSF. This test was conducted to investigate if LBD-005 had any effect on fertility in male and female rats. Sprague-Dawley rats(88 of each sex) bred at KRICT, were dosed subcutaneously, at a volume of 2ml/kg body weight with LBD-005 at 0, 250, 500 or 1, 000mg/kg body weight. The male rats were dosed, from 6 weeks of asge, for 60 days prior to mating.

Effects of melatonin on hepatic glutathione-peroxidase (GSH-Px) and glutathione-reductase (GSH-reductase) activities were studied in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats administered i.p. (10 mg/kg body weight) with melatonin during 15 days. The activity of cytosolic GSH-reductase in the liver was not changed by melatonin. However, melatonin injection increased significantly the activity of liver cytosolic GSH-Px activity compared with those in saline-treated rats. At the same time, plasma GSH-Px was also increased significantly in melatonin-treated rats. Since GSH-Px, a major antioxidative enzyme, removes $H_2O_2$ and lipid peroxides which are formed during lipid peroxidation from cellular membrane, such elevation of heptatic GSH-Px activity may contribute to the improvement of antioxidative effects under oxidative damage in the liver.

Acute toxicity of typhoid vaccine was investigated using Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats and beagle dogs. SD rats and beagle dogs were administered intramuscularly with dosages of 0,. 0.2, 0.1, 0.05 and 0.025 mg/kg, respectively. In animals administered with typhoid vaccine, there were neither dead animals nor significant changes of body weights. In addition, no differences were found between control and treated groups in clinical signs and autopsy findings. Therefore, LD50 of typhoid vaccine was considered to be higher than 0.2 mg/kg in SD rats and beagle dogs.
