In this experiment, it was attempted to observe the possible effect of Korean ginseng on growth rate and blood components to make a contribution to revealing partially the physiological action of ginseng in orally long-term administered rat.
The following results were obtained;
1) The overall body weight and growth rate with the ginseng administered group showed no significant difference compare to the control group.
2) The total blood serum protein of the ginseng administered ,;coup was increased, while serum albumin showed no difference.
3) The alkaline phosphatase activity of the test group was significantly increased during the maturation period.
4) The triglyceride and total cholesterol level of the test group were slightly decreased while, HDL-cholesterol and phospholipid were in-creased.
5) The total lipid content of the test group was significantly decreased during the test period.
6) The hematological value showed no difference between the control and the test group.
From the above results, it was suggested that the use of ginseng as a food substance or medicine helps maintain health through stimulating enzymes related to the metabolism of lipid.
