The medicinal plants used traditional medicines are classified into two groups. The first group is formulary medicine which have been recorded on authorized books, for example, kampo drug in Japan. The second group is the fork medicines. These medicinal plants production is 165 billion yen(about 1.5 billion dollar) and which rate to to total pharmaceutical production is about 3% in 1990. The number of important medicinal plants treated in the market is 124 herbs from the total 364 herbs for kampo durgs(210 preparations kampo durgs) and other propritetary drugs (agents for common cold, laxatives, gastrointestional and so on). The production of the Ginseng and Bupleurum Root are increased about ten times in last twelve years(1976 or 1988). The 80% of these medicinal plants are imported from China, Korea and Southern Asian countries. Then the Pharmaceutical Affairs Bureau of Ministry of Health and Welfare published "The Guideline of Medicinal Plant for Cultivation" for a quality control and a stabilization supply of 80 herbs. The first part(1992) of the guideline reported 5 herbs; Coptis Rhizome, Rehmannia Root, Bupleur, Root, Japanese Angelica Root and Rhubarb, The next part will be published following 5herbs; Cnidium Rhizome, Safflower, Coix seed and Fruiet, Platicodon Root and Zedoary.

The Angelica root has been used as a medicinal herb in many Asian countries including Korea, China, and Japan. Angelica gigas, A. sinensis, and A. acutiloba have been considered as Angelicae radix in Korean, Chinese, and Japanese Pharmacopoeia, respectively. Since the origins of Angelicae radix differ from country to country, there is a need to develop an efficient analytical method to identify the origin of the Angelica root. In order to obtain chemical fingerprints, three different Angelicae Radices were analyzed by direct analysis in real time mass spectrometry (DART-MS). Significantly different DART-MS spectra were observed from three different species of Angelicae Radix. Strong peaks of decursin or decusinol angelate, and its dimer were exclusively found from A. gigas. Ligustilide and linoleic acid were detected as the major component from A. acutiloba. The strongest ligustilide peak was observed from A. sinensis. DART-MS fingerprinting is a promising method for the rapid identification and/or quality control of Angelicae Radix.

Some researchers who once studied Uirimchualyo have paid good attention to the connection between Donguibogam & Uirimchualyo because of their similarity. So, after reviewing the Sequel of Uirimchualyo, in terms of its editing purpose and the list of contents, especially focused on throat sickness, here I report on the conclusions I come to. Firstly, the Sequel of Uirimchualyo was a monumental edition in concert with the enthronement of Kwanghaegun, and printed at demand of new medical knowledge, which was required to add to the existing Uirimchualyo, written by best-noted doctor, Yang Yesoo, and in need of simpler medical textbook to help people's recovery from the damage of Japanese invasion in the year of Imjin & Jeongyoo. Secondly, all the contents read in the Sequel of Uirimchualyo, were quoted from Kogumuigam, compiled by Kong Shin, Manbyonghoichun, edited by Kong Jeonghyun, Dangaeshim bupbuyo, published by Bang Kwang, and Uihakipmun, edited by Lee Cheon. Thirdly, The reason of similarity between Uirimchualyo and Donguibogam is that the Sequel of Uirimchualyo was made by adding new medical knowledge to the existing Uirimchualyo, and that many of contents of the Sequel of Uirimchualyo were quoted in Donguibogam. Fourthly, regarding throat sickness, medical knowledge on acute fever was supplemented in the Sequel of Uirimchualyo, and the emergency medical treatment methodology like "blow-in-throat" was newly introduced. This treatment is worth being employed to treat acute suffocation with swollen throat in modern acute-infection sicknesses. Fifthly, the Sequel of Uirimchualyo made up for brief description of the existing Uirimchualyo, offered more convenience of users compared with too overscaled Hyangyakjipseongbang & Uibangryuchui, and was more complete than Kookupbang which was loose, incomplete, and sometimes risky. And it took firm hold before Donguibogam, and eventually made a great contribution toward Donguibogam.

${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$(1445) is a book compiled the medical achievements of China and Choseon in those times and it's our source of pride to have it In this country. It also deserves careful investigation since this book can provide some clues of features of missing books in China and Korea. The extent of accuracy of xylographica of old books determines the possiblity of in depth further study. So authors attempted to investigate the xylographica of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ one of the 3 main books in Korea. Previous investigation done by Miki Sakae and Kim Doo Jong are noticeable. On the basis of their respective works, we analyzed 'Annals of the Choseon Dynasty' to find records related with ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ and estimated the situation of its publication. We tried figure the situation of those times of China, Japan and Korea(including North Korea) and tried to estimate the book's original xylographica as much as we could. By King Sejong's command, the first draft of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ consisted of 365 books was made by collaboration of civil officials and medical officers during the period from 1443 to 1445. And then from 1451(first year of Moonjong's reign) to 1464(l0th year of Sejo's reign) lots of manpowers were employed and through the process of countless erasure, proofreading, arrangement and rearrangement revised version of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ which is called by Sejo text was completed. After 3 years of wood engraving work, the first printed form of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ (alternately called Seongjong text) in folding case consisted of 266 chapters, 264 volumes came into the world in 1477.(8th year of Seongjong's reign). This was 32 years after the initial completion of the edition. So ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ exists in three forms as Sejong text, Sejo text and Seongjong text respectively. Since those texts were plundered during the Japanese invasion of Korea in 1592, none of the original copy remains within korea. The texts were constantly moved to kadeungcheongieong, to Kongdeungpyeongio, Jesookoan of Edo, to East University of department of classic books, to Cheoncho archives, to the Imperial Museum and finally is kept in the royal palace at present. (Doseoryo text Eulhae printing type) Reduced-size republication books of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ in wooden type were imported at the time of 'Byeongja Korea-Japan Treaty in 1876' and of those 2 books, one copy was treasured in the Royal Household of the Yi Dynasty and than was lost during the Korean War circa 1950. The other remaining copy has been kept succesively by Kojong's imperial grant, Royal doctor Hong Cheol Bo, Hong Taek Joo, Hong Ik Pyo the book agent, and now is kept In Yonsei University Library and this is the only existing copy in Korea at present. In 1965, Dongyang Medical college published the transcription version of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ consisting of 11 books and then in 1981 after edition and arrangement by Choonghoa(中華) publishing company, photoprint copy of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ was published in Keumgang(金剛) publishing company In 1991, October Yeokang(驛江) publishing company producd photocopies of ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ which were previously translated into Korean by North Korea Institute of Oriental Medicine and then issued by medical publishing company. In China, two institutes, Zhejiang Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Huzhou Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital cooperated to publish a revised and marked text consiting of 11 books by adding marking points to japanse Edohakhoondang text which were used as a reference. Both the korean and chinese texts issued were grounded by the ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ kept in the royal palace. Any further study concerning ${\ulcorner}$Classified Collection of Medical Prescriptions${\lrcorner}$ can acquire its accuracy and objectivity when the japanese text kept in the royal palace is taken as an original copy.

20세기 초반 근대 문물이 유입되면서 우리나라 인삼 산업에도 많은 변화가 일어났다. 인삼 재배법과 상업의 발전으로 인삼의 생산과 소비가 늘어났고 근대적 제제기술을 이용한 다양한 인삼 제품이 개발되었다. 자연히 이들 제품의 판매 경쟁도 치열해졌다. 당시 신문 광고에는 이러한 제품의 개발 동향과 판매 경쟁이 상세히 나타난다. 1920년 이전까지는 신문에 나타나는 인삼에 관한 광고는 매우 적었다. 아직 신문이 일반화되지 못했고 인삼 산업도 그만큼 발전하지 못했기 때문으로 생각된다. 1920년 동아일보와 조선일보가 창간되면서 인삼 광고가 활기를 띠기 시작했다. 1920년대 신문에 실린 인삼 광고는 인삼의 전통 한방적 효능과 신비함을 강조하는 용어를 많이 사용하였다. 인삼과 녹용을 복합 처방한 제품의 광고가 많은 것으로 보아 당시 이 제품이 큰 인기가 있었던 것으로 보인다. 제품을 복용한 사람들의 체험담도 이때 광고에 등장한다. 또한 당시 이미 통신판매가 광범위하게 활용되고 있음도 알 수 있다. 1925년에는 인삼제품을 매일 배달한다는 광고도 등장한다. 당시 뿌리삼은 그 크기와 품질에 따라 현재보다 훨씬 정교하게 분류되어 있었음이 광고에 여실히 드러난다. 1920년대 인삼 제품은 액제, 환제, 농축액 등 전통 한방 제형의 범위를 크게 벗어나지 못하고 있다. 1930년대 인삼 광고는 더욱 활발해진다. 이 시기에는 대학의 교수, 의학박사, 약학박사 등의 직함을 가진 전문가가 광고에 등장한다. 이들이 인삼을 추천한다거나, 성분이나 약효를 설명하거나, 심지어 이들의 실험 노트까지 광고에 등장하여 과학적 연구 결과를 근거로 인삼 제품의 신뢰도를 제고하기 위한 홍보가 강화된다. 1931년에는 현대적인 정제의 광고가 등장한다. 이후 비타민이나 다른 특정 성분을 강화한 인삼 제품이 등장하고, 병약자를 위한 인삼 미음도 등장한다. 1938년에는 최승희와 같은 무용수나 유명 영화배우를 모델로 사용하는 광고도 등장하게 되면서 인삼광고는 더욱 현대화되고 대중화 된다. 1920~1930년대 인삼광고는 당시 급변하는 우리 사회의 한 단면을 극명하게 보여준다.

Objectives : Chungsimyeonja-eum (CSYJE; Qingxinlianzi-yin in Chinese; Seishinrenshi-in in Japanese), a traditional herbal medicine, has been used for treating mouth dryness, hyperuresis. This study was designed to determine preservation period of CSYJE. We investigated the stability and biological activity of CSYJE depending on the preservation temperature and periods. Methods : CSYJE decoction was preserved for 0-6 or 12 months at room temperature (RT, $23{\pm}1^{\circ}C$) or refrigeration ($4^{\circ}C$). To evaluate the stability of CSYJE decoction, pH and dissolved solids content were measured. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis was performed to determine marker compounds-liquiritin apioside, liquiritin, baicalin, wogonoside, and glycyrrhizin-in CSYJE. To determine anti-inflammatory effect of CSYJE, prostaglandin $E_2$ ($PGE_2$) was measured in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 macrophages. Results : Both at RT and $4^{\circ}C$, pH was decreased depending on the preservation periods. There was no changes in dissolved solids content depending on the preservation temperature and periods. Both at RT and $4^{\circ}C$, the contents of liquiritin apioside and liquiritin were slightly increased at 1 month of storage. The level of baicalin was decreased time-dependently and the disappearance rate at RT is larger than at $4^{\circ}C$. CSYJE inhibited $PGE_2$ production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells and maintained inhibitory effect by 12 months both at RT and $4^{\circ}C$. Conclusions : Based on the disappearance rate of the baicalin in CSYJE, the preservation period is recommended within 8 months for RT and 12 months for $4^{\circ}C$.

화약(흑색화약)의 최초로 발명된 사실은 초석 의 제법 및 그 정제법과 밀접한 관계가 있다. 중국인들은 이미 11세기초부터 초석의 제법을 알고 있었으며, 그들이야말로 화약원료인 초석의 제법을 세계에서 가장 최초로 발명해 낸 사람들이다. 에지프트인들은 그것을 중국의 눈이라고 불럿으며, 초석이 유럽에 전파된 시기는 성길은오이 1218년 서정작업중 패르시아의 성첩를 공격하기 위하여 화약을 사용한데서부터 시작된 것으로 생각된다. 한국에 화약 및 초석의 제조기술이 중국으로부터 도입된 시기는 1374년이며 화약을 최초로 한국에서 만들어낸 사람은 최무선이였다. 이조시대에 접어 들면서 초석, 화약 및 화포의 제조기술은 최해신에 의해서 매우 발전해 나갔다. 그러나 1597년 일본의 왜군이 한국을 침공해 왔을때(임진란) 왜군은 성능좋은 조총으로 한국군을 괴롭혔으며 이에 맞서서 이순신장군이 이끄는 한국의 수군은 거북선에 장비한 성능좋은 화포로서 일본수군을 전멸시킬 수 있었다. 한국의 근대화약기술은 1930년부터 1945년 사이에 4개의 화약공장이 건설됨으로서 매우 발전했다. 본 연구는 한국에 화약기술이 전래된 경위를 조사하였으며 차후화약기술에 대해서 연구하고져 하는 연구자에게 연구 자료를 제공 하고져 시도했다.

A type of Korean traditional cookies, yackwa is composed of ingredients which serve as good medicine to people. Further, it has a priceless value and possibility to be a healthy functional dessert. For this study, we developed variable yackwa, containing red-ginseng powder and green tea powder, in order to target the foreign market as well as to investigate the perception and preference of yackwa. The test sample for the control group, yackwa is made of flour, sugar, baking powder, sesame oil and alcohol. For the experimental group, yackwa contains red-ginseng and green tea powder (3, 6, 9, 12%). The investigation period was May 14th, 2013 and the total number of participants was 100. The investigation applied a consumer survey method by filling out a questionnaire while tasting 9 kinds of yackwa samples. They were used for frequency, one-way ANOVA and Pearson's correlation analysis with SPSS 19.0. In the yackwa perception survey, the result indicated that 52.0% of the customers replied 'Do not know well' and 'Do not know at all' which conveys that the perception of yackwa is very low. In contrast, the perception of the red-ginseng and green tea which are functional ingredients is high and the customers tend to prefer the taste and flavor of green tea than red-ginseng. And they prefer the yackwa containing 3% of red-ginseng and green tea powder compared to other ratio contents in the overall preference, color, taste, flavor, odor, degree of greasiness and texture. When people who have a higher perception of yackwa, they tended to prefer the color of red-ginseng yackwa and dislike the color of green tea yackwa. And the more people prefer the taste of green tea, the higher in overall preference, color, taste, flavor, and odor preference.

Chinese lobelia (Lobelia chinensis Lour.) is an important medicinal plant that is used in traditional Chinese, Korean, and Japanese medicine. The goal of the current study was to develop an in vitro propagation technique for Lobelia chinensis. We have examined the effects of different media compositions on the regeneration of shoots from nodal cultures of Lobelia chinensis, including Murashige and Skoog (MS), Gamborg (B5), Schenk and Hildebrandt (SH), Woody plant (WPM), Chu (N6), and Nitsch and Nitsch (NLN) media. Similar to this, shoot regeneration was examined using MS medium of double (2.0), full (1.0), half (0.5), and quarter (0.25) strengths. The regeneration of shoots was also examined with additions of 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7% (w/v) sucrose to MS media. For axillary shoot regeneration, full-strength MS medium supplemented with 3% (w/v) sucrose was shown to be the most effective of all the evaluated factors. On this medium, nodal explants optimally regenerated 4.5 shoots per explant and subsequently shoots involved in rooting on the same medium. The regenerated plants possessed abundant phenolics, flavonoids, and DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP antioxidant activities. High performance liquid chromatographic examination (HPLC) of the regenerated plants revealed an accumulation of myricetin and catechin in higher amounts.

The currently existing "Bonchojeonghwa (本草精華)" is a manuscript without the preface and the epilogue, composed of 2 books in 2 volumes. This book is a quintessence of knowledge on science of medicinal ingredients (medicinal phytology I herbal science) as well as an trial of new development in Chosun medical science. I.e. this book includes surprising change representing medical science in Chosun dynasty as a single publication on science of medicinal ingredients. It holds a value essential to clinician as a specialized book in medicinal ingredients, and Includes richer content on medicinal ingredients than any other books published before. In addition, it is away from boring list-up of superfluous knowledge as seen in "Bonchokangmok(本草綱目)" published in China, and well summarizes essential knowledge which can be used within a range of medicines available in Korea. This book has an outstanding structure that can be even used in today's textbook on science of medicinal ingredients, as it has clear theory, system and classification. Because it handles essential learning points prior to prescription to disease, it is possible to configure new prescription and adjustment of medicinal materials. Moreover, this book can play a good role for linguistic study at the time of publication, because it describes many drugs in Hangul in many parts of the book. "Bonchojeonghwa" includes a variety of animals, plants and mineral resources in Korea, like "Bonchokangmok" which was recently listed in UNESCO. As such, it has a significance in natural history as well as pharmacy in Korean Medicine. It has various academic relationships all in biologic & abiologic aspects. It has importance in sharing future biological resources, building up international potential, setting up the standard for biologic species under IMF system, and becoming a base for resource diplomacy. We should not only see it as a book on medicinal ingredients in terms of Oriental Medicine, but also make an prudent approach to it in terms of study strengthening Korea's national competitiveness. After bibliographical reviewing on the features & characteristics of the only existing copy of "Bonchojeonghwa" housed in Kyujanggak(奎章閣) of Seoul National University, the followings are noted. First, "Bonchojeonghwa" is a specialized book on medicinal ingredients voluntarily made by private hands to distribute knowledge on drugs in the desolate situation after Imjinoeran (Japanese Invasion in 1592), without waiting for governmental help. Second, it raised accessibility and practicality by new editing. Third, it classified 990 different kinds of drugs into plant, animal, and mineral at large, and dassified more in detail into 15 'Bu' and 48 'Ryu' at 258 pages. Fourth, the publication of this book is estimated to be around 1625~1633, at the time of Injo's reign in 17th century. Fifth, it contains the existing & up-to-date knowledge at the time of publication, and it is possible to see the supply-demand situation by Hangul descriptions in 149 places in the book. By the fact that there are many linguistic evidences of 17th century, explains well when the book was published.
