One prominent characteristic of2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzop-dioxin (TCDD) toxicity in rats is a reduction of body weight accompanied by an altered serum lipid profile such as hyperlipidemia. A single administration of TCDD (50 ug/kg) resulted in a decrease of body weight and increase of serum cholesterol in rats. TCDD-induced weight loss and serum cholesterol elevation was reduced in rats administered with water extract (100 mg/kg) or saponin fraction (40 mg/kg) of Panax ginseng C.A.Meyer. In contrast, the administration of Panax quinquefolium did not inhibit the TCDD-induced weight loss and serum cholesterol elevation. Histological examinations of liver and testis revealed the administration of saponin fraction of Panax ginseng attenuated the TCDD-induced hispathologicallesions whereas the administration of saponin fraction of Panax quinquefolium did not. High performance liquid chromatographic analysis demonstrated high percentiles of ginsenoside Rg and ginsenoside $Rh_1$ were evident in saponin fraction of Panax ginseng. Results indicate that the protective effects of Panax ginseng, not Panax quinquefolium, on the TCDD-induced toxicity might be resulted from different compositions of saponins in Panax ginseng.

인삼 성분육종의 기초자료를 얻고자 동일한 생육환경하에서 생육한 4년생 이종인삼의 부위별 조사포닌 및 각 ginsenoside의 함량을 분석하였던 바 그 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 잎과 줄기에 함유된 조사포린 함량은 미국삼이 고려인삼인 자경종, 황숙종보다 많았으며 줄기보다는 잎에서 조사포닌함량이 높았다. 2. 뿌리의 조사포닌함량은 잎, 줄기와 같이 미국삼이 고려인삼인 자경종과 황숙종보다 높은 경향이었다. 3. 잎과 줄기 및 뿌리에 함유된 조사포닌의 panaxatriol 및 panaxadiol계 saponin의 함량비(PT/PD)는 잎과 줄기에서는 1.5~3.7:1. triol 계사포닌이 많은 반면 뿌리에서는 1:1~1.5로서 diol계사포닌이 많았다. 4. 각품종 공히 잎과 줄기에 함유된 ginsenoside종류에는 차이가 없었으나 -Rg$_2$, -Re, -Rc 등은 줄기에, -Rg$_1$, -Rd, -Rb$_1$은 잎에 다량 함유되어있었다. 5. 인삼뿌리에 함유된 ginsenoside는 -Rg$_1$, -Re, -Rb$_1$ 등이 많이 함유되었으며 고려인삼에서는 -Re가, 미국삼에서는 -Rb$_1$이 가장 많이 검출되었는데 특히 미국삼에서는 -Ro, -Ra, -Rf, -Rg$_2$가 검출되지 않았다.

To evaluate the effects of cultivar, environment, age and cultivation times on ginsenoside content among 8 wild populations of American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium), the concentrations of 6 ginsenosides in root were determined at the time of collection (T0) of plants from the wild and 1 year after (T1) transplanting the roots to each of two different forest garden locations. Both location and population had significant effects on root and shoot growth. Overall, ginsenoside Rb1 was most abundant. The second most abundant ginsenoside were Re and Rg1, however the contents of them were not significantly different from each other. Concentrations of Rg1 and Re were inversely related. Ginsenoside Re was influenced by population and location. Ginsenoside Rg1, Rb1, Rc, Rb2 and Rd were influenced by population, location and age. Ginsenoside levels were consistently lower but growth was consistently higher at the more intensively managed garden location.

One exotherm was detected in the intact ginseng seeds containing more than 35% water, but in seeds with 20% there was no exotherm. The shapes of exotherm were remarkably uniform without relation to water content above 35%. The temperature at the initiation of freezing varied from -3.5$^{\circ}C$ to -9.6$^{\circ}C$ with the different water content in the seeds, and the Initial temperature of freezing delayed with the decrease of water content. The resistance damage at low temperature appeared in order of maln body, rhizome, lateral root of 3-year-old yearling rhizome, and fine root of 3-year-old. Ginseng roots didn't receive any damage at -5$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. Otherwise they received serious damage below -1$0^{\circ}C$ even for 5 hours'exposure. Hence, alternative low temperature gave more severe damage compared to constant low temperature. This result suggests that the Possibility of receiving injury at low temperature was higher during the thawing season of the early spring than in the winter.

The statistical characteristics of three year old American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium 1.) root yields from Lytton, British Columbia, Canada are presented. Ginseng root yield is related to plant density, with the highest yields generally obtained from the sites with the highest plant densities. However, these higher yields are made up of a larger proportion of smaller roots while the proportion of larger roots remains almost constant throughout the range of plant densities sampled. Further, it is suggested that relatively small samples can provide significant insight into crop performance and growth.

The effects of soil phosphorus level on seed emergence, seedling mortality, plant and root development of American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.) were evaluated in a newly planted commercial ginseng garden. Phosphorus levels were increased from 58 ppm to 100, 150 and 200 ppm with triplephosphate (0-45-0). Higher phosphate levels increased, seed emergence and reduced seedling mortality. Root length, diameter, fresh root weight and total leaflet length were not affected by phosphate levels.

The present study was performed to examine the effects of oral administrations of Panax ginseng(PG) and P. quinquefolium(PQ) roots on hemodynamics and body temperature in healthy young men, since it was claimed that PG raises heat whereas PQ lowers heat by some ethnopharmacologists. The 42 healthy young male volunteers were divided into live groups. which were treated with mineral water(control), each high (9.0 g) and low (4.5 g) dose of PG and PQ. (omitted)

Newly sprouted American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.) seedlings were transplanted to forest pots with mycorrhizae-infested soil and grown in screenhouse for 2 years. Growth patterns, mortality rate and fresh root weight were investigated. Plants in VAM soil had lower mortality rales than control. In soils infested with two species of mycorrhizal fungi (Glomu deseyicola, frappe, Bloss and Merge and G. intraradices, Schenck and Smith), 28-35% of plants produced 3-prongs in the second season and significantly increased fresh root weight by 41 to 43%.

It has been extensively known in the high temperature regions such as southern China and south east Asia that Korean ginseng(Panax ginseng) intake raises body heat, while American ginseng(Panax quinquefolium) lowers it, based upon oriental medicine. This is likely due to the misunderstanding of the conception that Korean ginseng shows a warm property, resulting in enhanced blood circulation and stimulation of metabolism. It's further supported by the fact that current scientific studies have shown no notable side effects. Moreover, it has been demonstrated in animal experimental test that Korean ginseng shows a complementary effect in a high temperature environment, together with scientific evidence of a preventive effect of ginseng saponin against cold conditions, suggesting it to exhibit an adaptogenic effect normalizing the body under abnormal body conditions. However, there is a shortage of studies published concerning comparative clinical and animal studies of Korean and American ginsengs, and also, on natives of high temperature countries. Therefore, a further placebo-controlled clinical study has to be considered to elucidate scientifically clinical evaluation of Korean and American ginsengs on the body heat. In this article, we summarize the scientific publications reporting the clinical comparative study of Korean and American ginsengs on body heat response.

인삼속 식물의 광질별 광합성과 잎표백화 특성을 구명하기 위하여 공시재료로 고려인삼 및 미국삼을 사용하여, 각종 단색 광원하에서 개엽의 동화량 및 잎표백화 정도를 측정한 결과는 다음과 같다. 고려인삼의 광질별 광합성은 측정한 전온도 및 광도에서 공히 적색광 > 황색광 > 청색광 > 백색광 > 녹색광 순으로 높았으며 미국삼도 같은 경향이었다. 광질별 잎표백화 정도는 미국삼의 잎에서 근적외광 > 적색광 > 백색광 > 청색광 > 황색광 > 녹색광 순으로 근적외광에서 표백화가 가장심하였다. 이상의 결과로보아 인삼포의 해가림 자재는 청색광 및 황색광 자재의 가능성을 제시 하였다. 고려인삼의 광합성 최적온도는 $25^{\circ}C$ 부근 이었으며 미국삼도 같은 경향 이었다. 인삼잎의 호흡량은 온도가 증가함에 따라 증가 하였으며, 특히 $30^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서는 $25^{\circ}C$에 비해 잎호흡량이 고려인삼이 $80\%$이상, 미국삼이 $73\%$이상 급격히 증가 되었다. 광합성능은 미국삼이 $3.54\~4.04\;mg\;(CO_2{\cdot}dm^{-2}{\cdot}hr^{-1})$로 고려 인삼 $2.08\~2.59\;mg\;(CO_2{\cdot}dm^{-2}{\cdot}hr^{-1})$보다 높았다.
