It is very critical to specify certain medical personnels in defining the history of certain era. Due to the limited source of information and lack of thorough research, there still aren't enough study grounded on concrete historical investigation. Authors attempted to investigate those medicinal personnels engaged in Three Kingdoms period in terms of the activity area, relation with religion and their role in medical system and medical exchange. The sum of recorded medical personnels in Three Kingdoms period numbers 50 of which 6 belonged to Kokooryo, 18 to Baekje, 7 to Shilla and 19 to Unified Shilla. There might existed far more medical personnels who tried to alleviate the suffering of the people and were not recorded in the documents. The more earlier in times, the more medicine gets the religious tinge. This is not the exception for the period of the Three Kingdoms and those medicine men, wizard doctors and priest doctors were playing important role in healing people and processing crude drugs. The system of royal physician and medical education facility were established and doctors and pharmacists, shamanic doctor, herb collectors, Kongbong's doctor(供奉醫師), Kongbong's diviners(供奉卜師) took leads in medicine in those times. Those folkloric healers also took part in. Korea imported chinese medicine and Japan employed chinese medicine via Korea or directly from China and developed into traditional japanese medicine. In this process those who emigrated from Baekje and Kogooryo and their offsprings took an active part. Since the limited source of information of Three Kingdoms, we only can infer the me야cal environment of those times by featuring the activities of medical personnels.

An optimized manufacturing process was developed for the production of high-quality loess red ginseng using a hybrid process in which loess (yellow earth) was incorporated into the conventional ginseng manufacturing process system. We designed conventional ginseng processing facilities and prepared the loess module by baking loess that contained 42% water at $860^{\circ}C$ for 8 h. The loess module showed excellent performance in deodorization and humidity control. The optimum steaming temperature at which maximum expansion of starch organisms occurred was 90 to $98^{\circ}C$.

"LeiGongPaoZhiLun" is the first pharmaceutical book, and there are various opinion on when LeiXiao(雷斅), the author lived. From the aspect of several data, it is appropriate most that LeiXiao live in the period of Sui(隋) Dynasty, like SuSong(蘇頌) in the Sung Dynasty said, This book was not made at one time by one person. At the beginning, it was written by LeiXiao and the later generations enlarged to finish. The original of "LeiGongPaoZhiLun" disappeared already but a large amount of this book was quoted to "ZhengLeiBenCao(證類本草)" to be preserved. The contents of "LeiGongPaoZhiLun" are the first professional book about processing of medicinal, in which most of processing of medicinal that is generally used today, is included and some methods are unused. Besides, the regulations of this book are specific, the range is broad, and theoretical frame is established for the first time. This book has abundant contents, in which several processing of medicinal are written. There are 10 methods such as steaming(蒸法), boiling(煮法), baking(炮法), stir-frying(炒法), calcining(煅法), long time boiling(煉法), scorching(燒法), baking after wrapping(煨法), immersing(浸法), washing(洗法), flying(飛法), etc. How to remove some section that is not used for drug, how to separate according to medical use and region to be applied, how to smash, how to cut, how to dry, container for medicine, warning for making a prescription, time to make medicine and amount of medicine, how to distinguish superior and inferior and origin, how to make medicine partially, etc, are contained in this book. The contents of "LeiGongPaoZhiLun" can be mixture of processing of medicinal of medical scientists and taoists. In conclusion, however, the effect by the later medical generations of "LeiGongPaoZhiLun" was not great on processing of medicinal. It stemmed from the difference of processing of medicinal in this very taoistic book that realistic difficulties were disregarded by taoists for training and practical purpose, treatment that is the reason that later medical generations used processing of medicinal. Consequently, there is no great relation between the development of processing of medicinal in the Sung Dynasty and this book. "LeiGongYaoXingFu(雷公藥性賦)" that was abundant in medical market in Ming(明) and Qing(清) period has no relation with "LeiGongPaoZhiLun" is kind of a distribution-purposed book that was mnge in or after Ming Dynasty. However, since a book that is said to be written by 'LiGao(李杲)'PaoZhihis nof a dijust borrowed and focus on a brief summery, it is not desirable for beginners to learn medical knowledge. "LeiGongPaoZhiLun" is the first pharmaceutical book and is a model to show how a science in the history of the herb medicine generated and developed and how such a book is changed and modified to make a change of value.

The types and processing characteristics of traditional non-alcoholic beverage and their historical backgrounds were surveyed through the old literatures published from the 8th century to 1940. A total of over 70 different names of beverages were found in the literature. They were classified into 10 groups according to their processing methods and quality characteristics; Sunda (green tea), Yusada (tea analog with/without green tea), Tang (boiled herb extract), Jang (lactic acid fermented rice beverage), Suksu (rice tea), Mium (cereal gruel), Misik (roasted cereal powder), Sikhe (sweet rice beverage saccharified with malt), Sujonggwa (ginger-fruit drink) and Hwachai (fruits drink). In the old literatures, there was non exist clear distinction between Jang, Tang, Chong and Tea. Lactic acid fermented rice beverage seemed to be a common drink in Silla and Koryo periods (AD. 600-1400), but disappeared afterwards and completely forgotten today. Other beverages are maintained until today with almost identical methods of preparation as described in the literatures written in the 18th century.

Now many sustitution and false articles is used in korea instead of gegen. To use gegen correctly, we will make a quilitative certificational plan of gegen to investigate all of lieraturea, records and documents. And we could reach conclusions as folloews. 1) Source As a source of gegen, we think all of Pueraria lobata Ohwi and Pueraria thomsonii Benth can be used in korea and china. 2) Harvesting time. According to a data, content of effective components is high when harvested in January and February. Though there is no problem because domestic harvesting and working time is between January and February, we think it need to sure well-founded datas. 3) Standars of goods According to cutting methods, gegen divide into 'jiaogegen' and 'piangegen' from users So there is no problem at cutting methods because it is not a affective factor. 4) Processing A processing method is a best important case in express quility of herb. According to a data, effective components of peeled gegen is much less than that of non-peeled geeen. A tested samples is non-peeled gegen at a researh, they received suitable judgments in all of items. Especially we got a result content of puerarin is much more than 2.0%. But they were not washed in water, it is a problem that there is bleaching effect by almost drying at a briquat. So a processing method is to wash in water with unavoidable turnning to brown, to prevent this grgrn must be dried in bulk at low temporature. And we think that content of puerarin must be looked upward.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of medical herbs extracts on physicochemical characteristics of cooked rice. Three types (CLP 1, CLP 2, CLP 3) of extracts were prepared using 11 medicinal herbs, respectively. Polished rice was cooked with different concentration of medicinal herbs extracts by electric cooker. The moisture contents in cooked rice were decreased by increased concentration of herbs extracts, while total polyphenol contents were significantly increased. DPPH radical scavenging activities of cooked rice obviously were increased as herb extracts level increased. The consistency and setback value of the rice flour was reduced at all of the extracts, while breakdown and initial pasting temperature was increased. Color of cooked rice was shown different comparing to the control. However, the hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness and gumminess of cooked rice was increased depending on the concentration of extracts. These results showed that medicinal herbs extracts, which can benefit human health, is inducing the changes of physicochemical characteristics of cooked rice.
