Objective: This study was conducted to find out the effect of saruktanggamibang(SRT) on memory and learning of rats. Methods: The mon·is water maze was used. It was performed Acquisition test, Retention test of water maze. After Behavioral test, it was investigated AChE cell numbers of CAI and CA3 on hippocampus. Results: of water maze revealed that acqusitive abilities of SAP+SRT group significantly improved on 3, 4, 5th day compared with SAP+Saline group. Retention test of water maze didn't reveal that retentive abilities of SAP+SRT group significantly improved comparing with another group. ChAT cell numbers of medial septum of SAP+SRT group significantly increased compared with SAP+Saline group. AChE cell numbers of CAl and CA3 on hippocampus of Sham+SRT group significantly increased compared with Sham group. And AChE cell numbers of CAl and CA3 on hippocampus of SAP+SRT group significantly increased compared with SAP+Saline group. Conclusion: Saruktanggamibang(SRT) has an effect on memory and learning of rats.
