Taxonomic relationships between some inulin containing plants such as Platycodon and Codonopsis have been investigated comparing their contents of inulin crystals, resin, as well as TLC patterns of saponins and acetylenes. Although Platycodon and Codonopsis have been known to be close in anatomic characters, the present results showed that there were significant differences between not only in the genus but also in the species.

Purpose: Acute traumatic peroneal tendon dislocation is relatively rare disease and their methods of treatment is controversial, that we want to assess the characters and outcomes of 8 patients with early surgical treatments. Materials and Methods: We evaluated the results of 8 patients who can follow up more than 28 months using sex, age, side, injury sports, concomitant injuries, Eckert and Davis classifications, anatomic variants, results and complications. Results: All of 8 patients was male, average age was 27, Right side was dominant (5/8), causal sports was variable. Concomitant injuries were distal tibiofibular ligament syndesmosis injury, Peroneus longus injury, lateral collateral ligament injury. On behalf of Eckert and Davis classifications 5 patients were Grade 1 and other 3 patients were Grade 2. 1 case of low lying peroneus brevis belly was found as an anatomic variants. 6 of patients shown excellent results, 2 patients were good. Post operative complications were discomfort of operation site and mild limited dorsiflexion on ankle joint. Conclusion: Careful history and physical exam is important for diagnosis. And surgical treatments can expect good results.

Anatomical and physico-chemical properties of some nutrient and tonic crude drugs have been estimated and compared. Resin duct and druse crystal were observed more in Acanthopanax Cortex than in Ginseng Radix. Bast fiber bundle and solitary crystals were abandantly present in Glycyrrhizae Radix. Mucilage crude drugs contained mucilage ducts and bundles of raphides as common components and their arrangements of vascular bundles were different. TLC analysis showed different patterns of saponin, flavonoid, ${\gamma}-aminobutyric$ acid and sitosterols.
