[Method] Monkshood alcohol extract was prepared using soxhlet extractor. The maximum drug dose, which was the minimum dose causing 100% lethally rate in the preliminary test, was diluted into seven con- centrations in formal test. Then every mouse was orally administrated with 0.04 ml/g of the monkshood solution at single time for 7 d. Median lethal dose (LD50) and 95% confidence limit were calculated by the improved Karber method formulas. [Result] LD50 of monkshood ethanol extract was 230.12 mg/kg and 95% confidence limit of LD50 was 80.39-658.57 mg/kg. [Conclusion] Crude monkshood alcohol extract can quickly induce acute toxicity in mice.展开更多
