A literature on Korean rice cakes by ingredients and preparation methods was reviewed with published literatures in Korea from 1950 to 1995. The result were as followed; 1. The 46 volumes about preparation of Korean rice cakes were reported. There were 32 steamed (Jeung-byung), 6 pounded (Do-byung), 4 fried (Yu-jeon-byung), and 4 boiled Korean rice cakes (Kyung-Dan). This result showed that steamed Korean rice cake was the most frequently studied among any other kinds of Korean rice cakes. 2. The reports on preparation of Korean rice cakes were rare during $1950's{\sim} 1960's$. In 1970's, there were few papers about basic study for Korean rice cakes. And it was reached 8 volumes of steamed, each 1 volume of fried or boiled Korean rice cakes. From 1990's, the more scientific researches were progressed vigorously so reached 11 volumes till 1995 but it was limited to Solgi and Jeungpyun etc. This result shows that the experiment for Korean rice cake was not various. 3. The preceded studies for Korean rice cake were investigated to see texture, sensory, quality characteristic and effect of substitutes added to original ingredients.

Along with the rapid development of the database technology, as well as the widespread application of the database management systems are more and more large. Now the data mining technology has already been applied in scientific research, financial investment, market marketing, insurance and medical health and so on, and obtains widespread application. We discuss data mining technology and analyze the questions of it. Therefore, the research in a new data mining method has important significance. Some literatures did not consider the differences between attributes, leading to redundancy when constructing concept lattices. The paper proposes a new method of uncertain data mining based on the concept lattice of connotation difference degree (c_diff). The method defines the two rules. The construction of a concept lattice can be accelerated by excluding attributes with poor discriminative power from the process. There is also a new technique of calculating c_diff, which does not scan the full database on each layer, therefore reducing the number of database scans. The experimental outcomes present that the proposed method can save considerable time and improve the accuracy of the data mining compared with U-Apriori algorithm.

The purposes of this study were to identify the contents, frequency of use, and the rationales of folk remedies frequently used for first aid at home for stomachache, vomiting, strain, food poisoning, vaginal bleeding, or wounds of snake or dog bite, or bee sting. As the method of the study, data were collected by conducting a questionnaire of 185 persons, who filled it out or who were interviewed from May to August in 1998. The collected data was analyzed by using frequency and the rationales for the contents of the folk remedies were described base on literatures. The results were as follows,. 1. The folk remedies for stomachache in frequency order were 'warming the abdomen', 'rubbing the abdomen with a hand', or 'pricking a finger to bleed', which have the rationals. 2. The folk remedies for vomiting in frequency order are 'drinking water of watery radish' and 'pricking a finger to bleed', which have the rationales. 3. The folk remedies for strain in frequency order are 'soaking the affected area into cold water or applying an ice pack' and 'after soaking jasmine in water, making a dough with flour, and then attaching it on the affected area', which have the rationales, Additionally, although the frequencies are low, 'drinking brewed Achyranthis Radix' and 'applying brewed leaves and stalks of Sambuci Cortex' have the rationales. 4. The folk remedies for food poisoning in frequency order are 'drinking black beans and licorice brewed together' and 'eating mung beans', which have the scientific grounds. 5. The folk remedies for bloody discharge in frequency order are 'drinking brewed lotus root' and 'eating boiled chicken stuffed with root of bell-flower'. However, 'drinking brewed Thujae orientalis Folium' has the rationales. 6. The folk remedy for snake bite wounds that has the scientific grounds is 'sucking blood by a person without hurt in the mouth'. However, quite a lot of people apply alum or soy paste, which has no rationales. 7. The folk remedies for the bee sting in frequency order are 'after removing the sting, applying soy paste or sauce' and 'applying saliva'. No rationales for 'applying saliva' have been found. 8. The folk remedy for the dog bite wound that has the rationales is 'applying juice of leaves or stalks of Xanthii Fructus'. However, 85% of surveyed people use remedies that have no scientific grounds, such as 'applying burnt dog hair mixed with (sesame) oil' and 'applying soy paste or sauce'. Various materials are used in folk remedies for first aid treatment as shown above. Some of the folk remedies have the rationales since their medicinal actions have been found. However, the medicinal actions of the majority have not been found, but only known that they are effective, Especially for the materials except botanical drugs, they are used without knowing the effects since their components and pharmacognosies have not been described in any literature. The results of this research may be used for materials to educate the surveyed people or to consult them. Accordingly, the folk remedies that have the rationales are required to continue to study to find out the effects.

During the past two decades or so, science (or scientific or scientific & technological) culture has become one of the main themes not only of policy makers but also of science educators. Although, the idea of science culture has been taken as a desirable goal, there is little agreement about what it means and how to measure it. Particularly in Korea, there has been a rapid growth of science culture projects and programs, either by governmental or non-governmental, but with little systemic monitoring and evaluation for its practice. The purpose of this study is, thus, to explore a model of measuring science culture and develop a comprehensive indicator system for it. We reviewed many literatures on definitions of science culture and the surveys for related terms, particularly, of recent national and international surveys (e.g. US Science and Engineering Indicators, Eurobarometer, Japanese Science and Technology Indicators). Based on this review, a model for science culture is proposed and then used to define the Science Culture Indicators (SCI). This model encompasses two dimensions(i.e. individual and social), which are further divided into two aspects (i.e. potential and practice). Each dimension is expected to represent citizen literacy of and national infrastructure of science culture respectively. Each category in this $2{\times}2$ matrix is further divided into several sub-categories. The discussion concerning how the model and the indicators can be used to check the states of science culture at social as well as individual levels will be given with some concrete examples, such as indicators particularly related to science education.

Research literatures (e.g. research report, scientific paper and thesis, published between 2001 and 2005) of 332 collected from KISTI, KISS, ARPC databases were investigated and analyzed to give an overview of domestic ginseng researches. Most of recent ginseng researches have been performed by private nonprofit institutions and individuals, which suggests that a role of public institution fur ginseng researches needed to be enlarged. In terms of research fields, cultivation and agricultural researches have been mainly accomplished in ginseng research. Cell physiology and reproductive function researches occupied large part of pharmacological studies, but clinical studies were relatively limited. Studies on general food products development have taken the main part in fields of food products including functional foods. As the result of analysis of 312 domestic ginseng patents by classifications of world international property organization (WIPO), it was categorized into food technology, medicinal fermentation development technology, fermentation technology, and agriculture-fisheries technology. This integrated overview of the widely scattered ginseng literatures shows current general research trends in Korea and will be able to suggest further needs on cultivation, studies and industralization of ginseng.

General information is summarized, that is necessary to introduce a scientific assessment of the human health and exposure issue concerning dioxin and dioxin-like compound. Scientific literatures were reviewed to assess the background exposures to the dioxin-like compounds for normal residents. Epidemiologic studies were also reviewed to assess malignant and nonmalignant sweets of dioxins. In 1997, the International Agency for Research on Cancer classified 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) as a human carcinogen, primarily based on occupational cohort studies. The US Environmental Protection Agency made the same decision in it's Draft Dioxin Reassessment. Epidemiologic evidences point to a generalized excess of all cancers, without any pronounced excess at specific sites. Reported non-cancer effects included a range of conditions affecting most systems. Among them, chloracne, elevation in gamma glutamyl transferase(GGT), and alterations in reproductive hormones are related to TCDO, Other adverse outcomes, such as lipid concentrations, diabetes, circulatory and heart diseases, immunologic disorders, neurobehavioral effects, and developmental outcomes require further study before their respective relationships to TCDD can be more definitively assessed.

Imwonshibyukji(1827) is an important and stupendous ancient scientific book, which is much like an encyclopedia, that can discern the dietary life of the latter period of Choseon. This article is assorted, which is mentioned in this book, as Cho(Misutkaru-in parched grain that is weed out into powder) to the main material of grain Youmicho, Wandoocho, Youcho, also the medicinal plant as the main material Youkhangcho, Backyupcho, Chungumcho, Unyoungcho, and Naecho, Haengcho, Eicho, Imgumcho, Joyou, Bokbunjacho, made by fruit. The results of inquiring the property by the assortment is as you see in the following. Youmicho, Wandoocho, Youcho, Youkhyangcho, Backyupcho, and Chungumcho, which consist of glutinous rice, nonclutinous rice, barley, buckwheat, pea, and black soybean are among 13 kinds of methods to make Cho. The manufacturing process is similar to that of Misutkaru, but in the case of Unyoungcho 6 different medicinal powders are mixed with Chundang and Sookmill to form a hard portable taffy substance, which is quite unique. Naecho, Haengcho, Eicho, Imgumcho, Joyou, and Bokbunjacho are extracted from pulp and processed in a powder form like Misutkaru, which can also be considered as a fruit tea. Youcho is unique in its sense, since it is fermented by maggots that are bred in order to obtain the juice. Cho is known to calm thirst and empty stomachs, and has various medicinal materials to act as food to aid virility. It is also known to have multiple functions as an alternative staple, refreshment to aid virility, portable food, and preferable beverage. There are ten references on Cho, 37% are Korean in Ongheejobji and 63% Chinese in Jaeminyosool, Bonchogangmok, Chungmoonbobang, Nongjungchunsuh, Wangshinongsuh, Shikgyung, Sukmyung, Bonchoseupyou, and Wisaengbogam. The citations are in the general introduction and 13 types of Cho are cited 19 times overall, but citations based on Chinese references are non existe.
