Objectives : Huangqintang(⿈芩湯) is a famous herbal prescription in the Traditional Korean Medicine (e.g. Shanghanlun) to treat various chronic disease such as neurological disease and digestive system disease. Its components include Scutellariae Radix(⿈芩), Paeonia lactiflora(芍藥), Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma(⽢草), Zizyphi Fructus(⼤棗). Methods : In this study, we standardize the name, composition and medical uses of Huangqintang by literature studying and paper searching. Based on the comparison between oriental medicine and modern medicine pharmacology, we linked the medical uses of Huangqintang to Korean Standard Classification of Diseases (KCD). Results and Conclusion : The name of the prescription is unified into "Huangqintang", and its composition ratio between Scutellariae Radix, Paeonia lactiflora, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, and Zizyphi Fructus is 3:2:2:3. Huangqintang is used for enteritis diseases due to its antipyretic and antinflammatory effects. Its medical application was relatied with 'A'code, 'C'code, and 'K'code as indicated by KCD. By standardizing the mixed conceptions of Huangqintang, this review will facilitate the coding of Huangqintang prescription. Therefore, it will make Huangqintang prescription more useful in clinics.

The purpose of this study is to examine the improvement of endurance exercise performance by taking mixtures of Ginseng Radix rubra and Paeonia Radix. For this purpose, time of exhaustion, $V0_2max$, heart rate, and blood lactate was used as improvement index. The experiments were executed to thirty eight men in their twenties. They were randomly assigned into four groups[CG: control group(n=10), IG: ingestion mixtures group(n=9), TPG: ingestion placebo+training group(n=9), TIG: ingestion mixtures+training group(n=10)]. IG and TIG took mixtures of Ginseng Radix rubra and Paeonia Radix for four weeks, and TPG and TIG exercised once a day, three times a week, exercised for 25 minutes during the first week and added 2 minutes by week during four weeks up to 75% of their maximum heart rate. Time of exhaustion showed statistically significant increase for IG, TPG and TIG. TIG had the longest time of exhaustion and IG the shortest. In case of $VO_2max$, no statistically significant change was found among four groups. However, IG, TPG, TIG showed small increase in $VO_2max$. Similarly, no significant change was found for heart rate in rest even though TIG and TPG appear to have decreasing trend. For maximum heart rate, no significant change was found either, but IG, TPG and TIG showed increase. In case of blood lactate from rest to exercise until 18 minutes, no group had significant decrease. In case of blood lactate in exhaustion, IG, TPG and TIG had significant increase. Blood lactate recovery volume at 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 20 minutes showed no significant results for all four groups, but TIG and TPG had a small increase.

Two groups of bacteria, harmful and useful bacteria, coexist in our body. Harmful bacteria and free radicals which cause many diseases and agings could be controlled by not synthetic materials but natural products. 50 kinds of natural products were searched for this purpose, some of them expressed bacterial controlling ability. Clostridium difficle was controlled by Paeonia Japonica and Lycii Fructus, etc., Clostridium perfringens was inhibited by Scutellaria Baicalensis and Astragali Radix, etc., and same way, Listeria monocytogenes; Paeonia Japonica and Scutellaria Baicalensis, E. coli; Scutellaria Baicalensis and Schizandrae Fructus, Staphylococcus aureus; Paeonla Japonica and Scutellaria Baicalensis, Streptococcus mutans; Coptis Rhizoma, respectively. These natural products will play an important role in bio-Industry.

From the 70% EtOH extract from the roots of Paeonia lactiflora (Paeoniaceae), nine triterpenoids were isolated and identified as ${\beta}-amyrin$ (1), 24-methylenecycloartanol (2), betulinic acid (3), oleanolic acid (4), hederagenin (5), 30-norhederagenin (6), 30-norarjunolic acid (7), arjunolic acid (8), and $3{\beta},4{\beta},23-trihydroxy-24,30-dinorolean-12,20(29)-dien-28-oic$ acid (9) by spectroscopic methods. Among these compounds, 1, 2, 7, 8 and 9 were isolated for the first time from this plant.

From the 70% EtOH extract of Paeonia lactiflora roots (Paeoniaceae), fourteen phenolic and related compounds were isolated. They were identified as ${\alpha}-tocopherol$ (1), dioctylphthalate (2), ${\alpha}-tocospiro$ B (3), paeonol (4), 3,3'-di-O-methylellagic acid(5), 3,4'-di-O-methylellagic acid (6), benzoic acid (7), aromadendrin (8), p-hydroxybenzoic acid (9), (+)-catechin (10), gallic acid (11), nicotinamide (12), methyl gallate (13) and $1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-{\beta}-D-glucose$ (14) by spectroscopic methods. Among these compounds, 1-3, 5, 6, 8 and 12 were isolated for the first time from this plant.

This experiment was conducted to know the relationship between root diameter and the contents of paeoniflorin and some Chemical components in Paeoniae radix. Paeoniae radix of Euisung cultivar was harvested on 17 June, 1993 and divided into four gorups according to root diameter such as $30{\pm}2mm,\;17{\pm}1mm,\;12{\pm}1mm\;and\;7{\pm}1mm$. Paeoniflorin, total sugars, starch, crude protein, crude fat and crude ash of them were analyzed after dryed them for 30 days in room temperature. The ratio of shrinkage with different root diameter were not different significantly, and the average ratio of them was about 30%. Contents of paeoniflorin of $17{\pm}1mm$ root diameter was lower than that of $7{\pm}1mm$. but contents of total sugar and starch of $17{\pm}1mm$ were higher than those of $7{\pm}1mm$. Paeoniflorin contents was positively correlated with crude protein and crude fiber, and crude protein contents was negatively correlated with total sugars and starch.
