Abstract :
The mechanism that stasis-dispelling and vessels-freeing capsule promotes blood circulation was investigated in this study. The results showed that the stasis-dispelling and vessels-freeing capsule can significantly reduce the plasma viscosity and red cell aggregation while increase red blood cell deformability. It can also increase the learning ability and memory of mice. The effect of increasing learning abilities and memory is significantly better than the control group. The stasis-dispelling and vessels-freeing capsule plays its function on dispelling stasis and freeing vessels by improving blood rheology.
