Abstract
In order to investigate the influences of Panax ginseng (white ginseng and red ginseng) on the anesthetic effect and toxic effect of alcohol, experimental studies .had been carried out with albino rabbits, mongolian dogs and mice. The anesthetic effect of alcohol was observed by measuring the induction time, .anesthetic time, recovery time and duration from the beginning of induction to , the recovery of anesthesia (total time), respectively. and toxic effect ($LD_{50}$) of alcohol was measured. In addition to these experiments, al cohol concentration in .blood, blood sugar level, serum transaminase (GOT and GPT) activities and serum alkaline phosphatase activity were measured. Also in order to study the clinical effect of alcohol in healthy students, code .substitution, response time and muscle coordination were tested. The results were obtained as follows. 1. In the rabbits and mongolian Jags, the induction time of anesthesia by the administration of alcohol was delayed by the pretreatment of ginseng but recovery time and total time of anestksia were markedly shortend. 2. The bleed alcohol concentration was decreased by the pretreatment of ginseng , but not affected in mongolian dogs. 3. The blood sugar level, serum transaminase (GOT and GPT) activities and alkaline phoshatase activity in rabbits and dogs induced by the administration of alcohol were affected by the Pretreatment of ginseng. Because those were included within normal ranges, the differnces have no remarkable significance. 4. Liver alcohol dehydrogenase activity of rabbit was increased by the treatment of ginseng, especially it was markedly increased by the treatment of red ginseng 5. The average lethal dose of alcohol to mice was increased by the pretreatment. of ginseng, especially it was markedly increased by the pretreatment of red .ginseng. 6. In the clinical experiments, the blood alcohol concentration induced by alcohol administration was not affected by the pretreatment of ginseng whereas the bleed sugar level was increased. Blood alcohol concentration and bleed sugar level were measured after three hours alcohol administration. 7. The response time of healthy students administered with alcohol was markedly shortened by the pretreatment of ginseng but the experiments on the code substitution and muscle coordination were not affected.
알코을 마취작용 및 독작용에 미치는 인삼(백삼 및 홍삼)의 영향을 보기 위하여 다음과 같은 실험을 시행하였다. 실험동물로는 백색 가토, 마우스, 및 잡견을 사용하였고, 백색 가토 및 잡견에 대한 알코올의 마취작용을 관찰하기 위하여 마취의 유도시간, 마취시간, 회복시간과 마취의 유도로부터 완전회복까지의 전시간을 각각 계정하였으며, 마우스에 대한 알코올의 독작용($LD_{50}$)을 측정하였다. 아울러 혈중 알코올 농도, 혈당량, 혈청 transaminase(GOT 및 GDT)활성도 및 혈청 alkaline phosphatase활성도를 각각 측정하였다. 그리고 건강한 대학생에 대한 임상실험으로는 code substitution, response time 및 muscle coordination을 각각 관찰하였다. 실험결과로는 1. 인삼 전처치로 알코올 마취의 유도시간은 지연되었고, 회복시간과 마취가 시작하 여 회복될때 까지의 전시간은 현저히 단축되었다. 2. 혈중 알코을 농도는 인삼 전처치로 백색 가로에 있어서는 감소되었으나. 잡견에서는 별 영향이 없었다. 3. 인삼 전처치로 헐당량, 혈청transaminase(GOT 및 GDT)활성도 및 쳔청 alkaline phosphatase활성도는 다소 변동이 있었으나, 각각 경상 범위 내에서의 변동이 였기 때문에 의의 있는 변화라고 할 수 없다. 4. 가토간 내 알코올 dehydrogenase활성도는 인삼 투여로 상승하였는데 특히 홍삼 투여로 더욱 현저하였다. 5. 마우스에 대한 알코올의$LD_{50}$은 인삼 전처치로 증가되었는데 홍삼 전처치로 더욱 현저히 증가되었다. 6. 학생에 대한 임상 실험에서는 알코올 투여 후 3시간에 측정하였는데 혈중 알코올 농도는 인삼 전처치로 변동이 없었으나 혈당량은 증가되었다. 7. 인삼 전처치로 알코을에 의한 response time은 현저히 단축되었으나 code substitution이나 muscle coordination에는 영향이 없었다.
