Experimental study on effect of of notoginseng in enhancing immunity function of mice

Objective To explore the effect of notoginseng on the immune system of mice.Methods The mice were fed with notoginseng stock solution at the doses of 2.5,5.0 and 10mL/kg Bw for 30 days and then 7 indexes of immune function were measured to judge the effect of notoginseng on immune system of the mice.Results The results of the test groups in comparison with the control group showed that transformation and proliferation of splenic lymphocyte were enhanced;the quantity of the antibody-producing cell and the sheep erythrocyte antibody levels in serum of mice rosed;The mononuclear macrophage ability to eliminate carbon and mononuclear celiac macrophage phagocytosis were increased.Conclusion Notoginseng could enhance immune function of the mice.
