One of the characteristics features of Chinese Medicine is recognized as the practical use of combinations of crude drugs in the forms of various prescriptions according to the symptoms of illness. Such crude drugs are mostly dried plant roots, rhizomes, leaves, fruits and seeds, sometimes dried animla organ preparations even fossils or minerals. In the oldest book of Chinese Medicine, Sang Han Ron, 113 prescriptions were described in which about 80 crude drugs were included, and in other old literature, Shin Nong Bon Tcho Keun, 363 crude drugs were recorded. Such drugs, in particular, those included in Sang Han Ron are generally low toxic, and the prescriptions are acting mild with less side effects, but obviously not so easy task to determine the effect of the indivisual drug from the total effects of various prescriptions which are generally consisted of many kinds of crude drugs. About 200 years ago, in the middle of Edo era, a Japanese medical doctor, Yoshimasu Todo wrote a series of books named "Yakucho", in which he described the essential various prescriptions in which the certain drugs plays the main role. This book is very suggestive to evaluate the effects of some Chinese drugs. The actual effects of Chinese medicine and drugs have widely been recognized by the East Asian peoples during their long age experiences, but still it has not been studied sufficiently by modern scientific methods to give generally acceptable evidences. During past some years, my collaborators and I have been engaged to study some well-known Chinese drugs chemically to find out the active principles in determining their chemical structures under the collaboration of pharmacologists, Prof. K. Takagi and his coworkers. In the present lecture, I would like to present two topics from our recent investigations: The studies on the principles of Paeony and Ginseng roots.

Narcotic drugs generally refer to serious and habitual hidden rash such as opium, heroin, methyphetamin, nabinol, cocaine, and so forth. At present, narcotic drugs are spread unchecked and are causing a big social problem. So many countries and narcotists are making every effort to set up a barricade against narcotic drugs. And there is a limit suitable treatment for them. Thus Tuo Yin Tang hang is developed. As indicated by Chinese letters, Tuo yin Tang Jiang(TYTJ) is a crude drug. It is a traditional chinese medicine developed by the study done from lune in 1998 to lune in 1999 that Hubeisheng was entrusted with by People's Republic of China. This study is a treatise on etiology and syntomatology or narcotism. TYTJ is a medicine which is in accord with Pharmacopeia of the People's Republic of China in order to remove from the body the toxic materials resulting from narcotic drugs such as opium and heroin. According to the standard diagnosis on narcotism, 105 cases are studied and treated at the Rehabilitation Center attached to Enshi Autonomous Region Hospital in Hubeisheng. 105 cases are divided into 2 groups by double-blind method. One is the experimental group which has 56 cases. The other is the control group which has 49 ones. 13 cases among 105 cases are addicted by intravenously injections. 9 cases are by oral takings. It took 10 days for this experiment to be performed. Two groups didn't show a striking individual variation based on the age, gender, period of taking drugs, withdrawal symptoms, complication, and state of health. The experimental group had a higher effect of treatment than the control group had. TYTJ treats diseases effectively and has no side effect, irrespective of the serious or slight addiction to opium and morphine.

Viral infections are known as one of the major factors causing death. Ginseng is a medicinal plant that demonstrated a wide range of antiviral potential, and saponins are the major bioactive ingredients in the genus Panax with vast therapeutic potential. Studies focusing on the antiviral activity of the genus Panax plant-derived agents (extracts and saponins) and their mechanisms were identified and summarized, including contributions mainly from January 2016 until January 2022. P. ginseng, P. notoginseng, and P. quinquefolius were included in the review as valuable medicinal herbs against infections with 14 types of viruses. Reports from 9 extracts and 12 bioactive saponins were included, with 6 types of protopanaxadiol (PPD) ginsenosides and 6 types of protopanaxatriol (PPT) ginsenosides. The mechanisms mainly involved the inhibition of viral attachment and replication, the modulation of immune response by regulating signaling pathways, including the Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway, cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE)/hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) pathway, phosphoinositide-dependent kinase-1 (PDK1)/ protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway, c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)/activator protein-1 (AP-1) pathway, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) pathway. This review includes detailed information about the mentioned antiviral effects of the genus Panax extracts and saponins in vitro and in vivo, and in human clinical trials, which provides a scientific basis for ginseng as an adjunctive therapeutic drug or nutraceutical.

Isotianil은 쌀 도열병을 방제하기 위한 새로이 개발된 식물활성 살균제로 다른 식물활성제에 비해 소량으로도 장시간의 효과를 나타내는 특징을 가지고 있다. 신규 농약 Isotianil에 대한 기준은 국내의 경우 2010년 쌀에 대하여 0.1 mg/kg으로 최초 설정되었으며, 이에 따른 식품 중 안전관리를 위해 Isotianil을 분석하기위한 검사법을 개발하였다. 검체 일정량에 acetonitrile을 가하고 균질화하여 대상농약을 추출하였으며, 액-액분배하고 florisil 카트리지를 이용한 고체상 추출 후 GC-NPD 및 GC-MSD로 분석하였다. 분석결과 농산물에 의한 간섭물질은 없었으며, 대표 농산물 현미 등 6 종에 대한 Isotianil의 분석 시험법의 정량한계와 직선성은 각각 0.05 mg/kg과 0.999($r^2$)이었다. 회수율은 대표 농산물에서 70.0~103.9%이었으며, 분석오차는 10% 미만으로 CODEX 잔류분석 기준에 적합하였다.

천속단과 한속단은 명칭이 유사하여 '속단'으로 통칭하여 판매되고 있으나, 종과 속이 서로 다른 약재일 뿐만 아니라 함유 성분이 다르므로 주의가 필요하다. 천속단은 골격강화, 골절치료 작용이 있는 한약재로 식품원료로는 사용할 수 없으나, 한속단의 뿌리와 잎은 식품원료로 사용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 식품 중 천속단 혼입여부 판별을 위하여 LC-MS/MS를 이용한 동시분석법을 개발하였으며, 선택성, 직선성, 검출한계, 정량한계, 정확성, 정밀성을 검토하였다. 국내 유통중인 식품 중 어린이 키성장을 표방하는 제품 17건을 구매하여 천속단 혼입여부에 대한 실태조사를 하였다. 분석결과 17건의 시료 중 5건의 시료에서 천속단이 검출되었으며, 천속단 지표성분의 함량은 loganin $0.19-14.45{\mu}g/mL$, sweroside $0.13-4.61{\mu}g/mL$, akebia saponin D $0.59-19.29{\mu}g/mL$이었다. 본 연구에서 개발된 동시분석법은 식품 중 불법 혼입된 천속단을 간단하면서도 신속하게 판별하는데 도움이 될 것으로 사료된다.

Chinese crude drug 'Kang Whal' has been used mainly as a headache in common cold, rheumatic arthralgia and aching of the back and shoulder. To clarify the botanical origin of Kang Whal from Korea, the anatomical characteristics of Ostericum koreanum Maxim. and Notopterygium incisium Ting ex H.T.Chang were studied. As a result, it was clarified that Kang Whal from Korea was the underground part of Ostericum koreanum.
