Coptis rhizoma had been applied in the chines medicine as well as in the folk remidies and it was advocated that coptis rhizoma exerts good therapeutic effect in some case of alimentary disorders and other hypotensive ailments. However the basic pharmacology and the mechanism of hypotensive action are not clear. This experiment was carried out in order to reevaluate the pharmacology, especially hypotensive action of coptis rhizoma and to clarify the mechanism of action, in the rabbits and also $LD_{50}$ of coptis rhizoma was determined using mice as experimental animals. The results of the experiment were as follows. 1) $LD_{50}$ to the mice was 69 mg/kg. 2) Blood pressure manifested gradual responses by the fall of -17, -26, -62 mmHg in proportion to the administration of 3, 5, 10 mg/kg of coptis rhizoma extract respectively. 3) No significant differance was observed in heart rate between the normal control group and the coptis rhizoma extract treated group. 4) Administration of coptis rhizoma extract 5 mg/kg to the rabbit pretreated with atropine or avil did not show any significant difference in the blood pressure compared with that of control group. 5) In the rabbit pretreated with coptis rhizoma extract 5mg/kg, the hypotensive effect of epinephrine was significantly inhibited in comparison with that of normal rabbit.

Objectives: Samul-tang(Siwu-tang) has been traditionally prescribed a medicine as a restorative. Methods: In this study, we investigated the acute toxicity about water-extracted Samul-tang(Siwu-tang). Twenty-five mice completed 14 days of oral Samul-tang(Siwu-tang) at the respective doses of 0(control group), 2560, 3200, 4000 and 5000mg/kg. Results: We observed survival rates, general toxicity, change of body weight, and autopsy. Conclusions: Compared with the control group, we could not find any toxic alteration in all treated groups (2560, 3200, 4000 and 5000mg/kg). $LD_{50}$ of Samul-tang(Siwu-tang) was over 5000mg/kg and it is very safe to ICR mice.

벼멸구의 카보후란에 대한 저항성 기작을 구명하기 위해 실내에서 카보후란으로 30세대 도태하여 얻은 저항성계통($LD_{50};\;20.3{\mu}g/g$)과 약제를 12년 동안 처리하지 않은 벼멸구 감수성 계통($LD_{50};\;0.3{\mu}g/g$)을 완충용액과 마쇄하여, 105,000g에서 2시간 원심분리하여 얻은 상등액(에스테라제층)과 침전물(P450-산화효소층)을 효소액으로 하여 $^{14}C$-카보후란을 반응시켜 계통 간 대사물 량의 차이를 조사한 바 저해제(piperonyl butoxide; 산화효소저해제, diethylmalate; 글루타치온 전이효소 저해제, iprobenfos; 에스테라제 저해제)와 보조인자 (NADPH; P-450 산화효소, 글루타치온; 글루타치온전이효소)에 상관없이 카보후란의 대사물과 그 양이 계통간 차이가 없었다. 이상의 결과로부터 저항성 벼멸구에서 일반적으로 곤충에서 생화학적 저항성 기구로 잘 알려진 가수 분해 효소의 일종인 에스테라제와 p-450 산화효소, 글루타치온 전이효소의 활성 증가가 저항성 발달에 관여하지 않음을 알 수 있었다.

전국 162개 지역에서 수집한 토양에서 분리한 5,000여종의 토양 미생물 탐색을 통해서 항진균 활성이 우수한 한개의 생산균주를 선별하고 형태학적 배양학적, 생리학적인 균주 특성을 조사하고 Bacillus subtilis로 동정하였다. 이 균주가 생산하는 항진균물질은 벼도열병균, 회색곰팡이병균, 무좀균, 캔디다균 등에 효과가 있었으며 벼의 도열병에 대한 포장에서의 활성은 tricyclazole 보다는 낮지만 kasugamycin과 대등한 방제효과를 나타내었다. 한편 국소 시험에서는 자극성이 없는 것으로 나타났으며, 급성경구 독성은 5,000mg/kg 군에서 1마리가 사망하여 $LD_{50}$ 값은 5,000mg/kg 이상으로 추정되어 KRF-001은 저독성내지 무독성 항진균물질로 유추된다.

In order to investigate the toxicities of S-bioallethrin (5-biol) and its combination treatment with N-octyl bicycloheptene dicarboximide (MGK-264), the acute and subacute toxicity, and enzyme activity test were performed. $LD_{50}$ levels of S-biol and MGK-264 in rats are 640 mg/kg and 3, 280 mg/kg respectively. However, when rats were treated with the mixture of S-biol and MGK-264 (1 : 5 ratio), the $LD_{50}$ was decreased to 545 mg/kg. In serological analysis, ALT and LDH were increased in animals treated with the mixture. Also glucose level was significantly increased after 5 weeks in animals treated with both S-biol and the mixture. Other biochemical parameters such as cytochrome P-450 and NADPH-cytochrome c reductase in the liver and kidney were shown to be not significantly changed. Levels of total ATPase and $mg^{2+}$ ATPase were significantly decreased in the liver of animals treated with the mixture after 4-5 weeks. In addition, S-biol can alone decrease total ATPase activity. Total ATPase activity was also significantly decreased in the kidney after 5 week treatment with the mixture. Similarily, glucose-6-phosphatase activity was significantly decreased in animals treated with the mixture. When either S-biol or MGK-264 was administered, cholinesterase and carboxyesterase activities were slightly decreased but they were significantly decreased when the mixture was administered.

To investigate the acute toxicity of Elfvingia applanata$(P_{ers})K_{ARST}$, it was extracted with hot water. EA, the aqueous extract from the carpophores of E. applanata, was lyophilized and a dark brownish powder was obtained. The acute toxicity of EA was investigated in ICR mice of both sexes. Five groups of mice were administered orally and intraperitoneally with 375, 750, 1,500, 3,000, 6,000 mg/kg(p.o.) and 312.5, 625, 1,250, 2,500, 5,000 mg/kg (i.p.) of EA Abnormal clinical signs related to EA were not observed and no deaths occurred. $LD_{50}$ values administered orally and intraperitoneally were evaluated to be over 6,000 mg/kg and over 5,000 mg/kg, respectively. Gross finding of necropsy revealed no evidence of specific toxicity related to EA. There were no significant changes in body weights, serum biochemical values and histopathological changes compared with control group.
