1. Objectives This Study is to find efficacy of Red Poria and White Poria used for Soyangin Prescriptions in Lee Je-Ma's writings. 2. Methods We analysed Soyangin Prescription with Poria in ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon Chobonkwon(東醫壽世保元 草本卷)${\lrcorner}$ , ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon Gabobon(東醫壽世保元 甲牛本)${\lrcorner}$ , ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon Sinchukbon(東醫壽世保元 辛丑本)${\lrcorner}$ and ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Sasang Sinpyun(東醫四象新編)${\lrcorner}$ based on the efficacy of Poria written in ${\ulcorner}$DongMugo YakSungGa(東武遺藁 藥性歌)${\lrcorner}$ . 3. Results and Conclusions 1) Red Poria and White Poria seems to be different in Sasang Constitutional Medicine. 2) Poria in Soyangin Prescription had used from the traditional medical point at the beginning, in ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon Chobonkwon(東醫壽世保元草本卷)${\lrcorner}$ , but its usage was changing until ${\ulcorner}$Dongyi Suse Bowon Sinchukbon(東醫壽世保元辛丑本)${\lrcorner}$ as the point of Sasang Constitutional Medicine. 3. It is necessary to use Poria in Soyangin Prescription as the essence of Soyangin's life because it effects on the whole body without any distinction from body's upper part with lower part and body's exterior part with interior part.

This study was conducted to promote fish paste made with white poria cocos wolf powder as a food. The tested concentrations of the powder were 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7%. All the fish paste samples had 37% water content. For the Hunter color values of samples, L-values decreased but a- and b-values increased with increasing concentrations of the powder. In addition, the folding test scores of all samples were good (AA). In the texture tests, brittleness increased where as springiness decreased with increasing concentrations of the powder. In the sensory evaluations, color, flavor, hardness, and cohesiveness scores increased, and sleekness and oily taste scores decreased, with increasing concentrations of the powder. The fish paste containing 3% white poria cocos wolf powder (3WPWP) had the highest acceptance scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall quality. These results suggest that white poria cocos wolf powder can be applied to fish paste to increase its quality.

The qualitative and quantitative analysis of fatty acids in the Korean White Poria cocos(Schw.) Wolf were performed. Dry powder of sample was extracted with chloroform-methanol(2 : 1, v/v) mixed solvent. The extract was saponified and methylated, and then analyzed by gas chromatography. Total 24 peaks were observed in the gas chromatogrom and 5 peaks i.e, $C_{8:0}\:;\:caprylic\:acid$, $C_{11:0}\:;\:undecanoic\:acid$, $C_{12:0}\:;\:lauric\:acid$. $C_{12:1}\:;\:dodecenoic\:acid$ and $C_{16:0}\:;\:palmitic\:acid$ were identified. Major components were $C_{8:0}\:and\:C_{12:1}$ were determined as $6.657\:{\mu}g/g\:and\:10.176{\mu}g/g$ respectively.

To investigate the effects on the bread added with $0{\sim}5%$ of Poria cocos Wolf powder (PP), and analyzed dough rasing power, gluten content, RVA, and properties of bread added powder of Poria cocos Wolf. Powder of white Poria cocos Wolf were contented moisture, 7.67, crude protein, 0.61, crude lipid, 0.58, crude ash, 032, and crude fiber 0.30. Dough rasing power were decreased by low intial pasting temperature and temperature at peak viscosity, and decreases in viscosity at peak point and as reveal through RVA. Breakdown and gluten contents of dough decreased by power of Poria cocos Wolf. Color and scanning electron microscope of bread wasn't significantly different when Poria cocos Wolf powder was added up to 5 percent.

In this study, we attempted to assess the efficacy of a method to improve the quality of prepared bread via the addition Poria cocos powder to wheat flour at a range of concentrations from $0{\sim}5%$. The approximate composition for Poria cocos powder was as follow: moisture 7.67%, crude protein 0.61%, crude fat 0.58%, crude ash 0.32%, and crude fiber 0.30%, when using the flour to which the Poria cocos powder had been added, specific volume, falling number, and dough yield values all increased with increasing concentrations of added Poria cocos powder. The result of our microscopic observations revealed a relative scarcity of larger starch granules, and the bread prepared with the Poria cocos powder evidenced a sparse structure. With regard to the Hunters color value measurements, the L value decreased with increasing concentrations of Poria cocos powder. but the a and b values evidenced an inverse relationship with the concentration of added powder. The texture, hardness, and adhesiveness characteristics of the bread decreased with increasing concentration of added Poria cocos powder. but the gumminess and chewiness of the bread increased. However, we noted no significant differences in the springiness and cohesiveness characteristics among the experimental groups assessed herein. In the sensory evaluation, the quality of the 2% or 3% Poria cocos powder breads was optimal in terms of its taste and flavor.

This study was made to observe changes in hemograms of the Sarcoma-180 mouse treated with extracts of Poria cocos and Panax ginseng. The life span of the Sarcoma-180 mouse administered with the mixture of the extract of Panax ginseng with the extract of P. cocos and the extract of P. cocos was extended more than the non-treated group. In the body weight of the Sarcoma-180 mouse, the non-treated group was increased more than the normal group and the groups administered with the mixture of ginseng extract with hoelen extract and hoelen extract. In the numbers of white blood cell especially lymphocyte, the groups administered with the mixture of ginseng extract with hoelen extract and hoelen extract were similar to the normal group, but the non-treated group was decreased. The Hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume and mean corpuscular hemoglobin in the mice infected with Sarcoma-180 were not significantly different between the group treated with extracts of them and the non-treated group. In the distributions and sizes of white blood cell and platelet in the mice, the group administered with the Hoelen extract was similar to the normal group comparing to the non-treated group.

This study was carried out to determine the functional works and basic ingredients of Sagoonja-Tang on white pan bread. The -experimental groups consisted of 6% mixtures of five(Ed- confirm the number) kinds powders, : B1 for Sagoonja-Tang powder, B2 for Panax ginseng, B3 for Poria cocos, Koidz, B4 for Atractylodes macrocephala, and B5 for Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch. The volume of white pan bread somewhat decreased after adding the ingredients, and the volume differences in order from highest to lowest, were white pan bread control>B2>B3>B4>B1>B5. For white pan bread, pH of control, B3, and B5 decreased on the 2nd day during storage, but increased on the 4th and 7th days. In the texture analyses of white pan bread, B4 and B5 showed a higher degree of hardness than that of control, while B2, and B3 were the lowest. In sensory test, the overall acceptability of regular white pan bread in order from highest to lowest was control>B3>B2>B1 ${\cdot}$ B5>B4.

The effects of ethanol extracts from Asparagus cochinchinensis, Polggonatum officinale, Poria cocos, Panax ginseng and Acanthopanax sessiliflorum on the toxicity of polychlorinated biphenyls(PCBs) were examined and following results were obtained. By the administration of these extracts, PCBs intoxicated rats showed the normalizing tendency in body weights and various hematological parameters-counts of red blood cell and white blood cell, hemoglobin content and hematocrit value. These extracts ameliorated the elevated levels of serum cholesterol, total lipids, $_{8}-GOT-,\;_{8}-GPT$ and s-alkaline phosphatase activities of PCBs intoxicated rats.
