저자들은 길버트 증후군 환아에서 조영제 사용 후 발생한 지속적 황달 증례를 보고하는 바이다. 이는 비교적 드문 증례로, 임상에서의 꾸준한 관찰이 필요하다.

참외는 유용한 농업생명자원이면서, 생약 및 한약으로 활용할 수 있는 아주 유용한 자원이다. 참외의 생약명(Medicinal name)은 Melonis Pedicellus이며, Cucurbitaceae에 속하는 Cucumis melo Linné의 초본 꽃받침으로 한약재로 널리 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Melonis Pedicellus의 한약 특성을 조사하고 Melonis Pedicellus를 함유 한 34개의 한약 포뮬러를 검토하였다. 이 연구는 꼭지 소재 기반 한약재에 대한 추가 연구를 바탕으로 미활용 한약재의 가치를 제고할 수 있다고 사료된다. 먼저 각 국가의 공정서 및 고문헌 분석을 통해 과체 한약재의 기원을 비교하였다. 특히 중국, 일본, 대만이 아닌 남북한의 약전에서 특이점을 찾아볼 수 있었다. 둘째, Melonis Pedicellus에서 발견된 성분을 조사하였다. 지방산 화합물이 가장 많았으며 셋째로는, Melonis Pedicellus 의 생약학적 관점으로 요약하였다. 그것은 구토 성질이 매우 강하기 때문에 구토 요법에 특별히 사용되어 온 사실을 검증하였다. 끝으로 3세기부터 20세기까지의 31편의 고문을 분석하였고, Melonis Pedicellus를 포함하는 34개의 한약재 포뮬러가 문헌에서 발견되었다. Melonis Pedicellus는 주로 구토 요법에 사용되었기 때문에 대부분의 한약 제제가 구토 요법에 상관성 있게 한약재의 본질이 그 공식에 정확히 반영되었음을 의미한다. 이 연구는 Cucumis melo Linné의 꽃받침이 한약재로 사용되어온 근거를 마련했다. Melonis Pedicellus의 기원은 대부분의 동아시아 국가에서 언급되지 않기 때문에 더 확대하여 조사 범위를 넓혀서 연구할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 한국한의학연구원 제공 전통의학정보포털(KIOM Oasis Portal)과 전북대학교 한국과학문명학연구소에서 제공하는 고의서 빅데이터를 활용하여 고문헌 정보를 효율적으로 확보하였다. 앞으로 과체(瓜蔕)뿐만이 아니라 감꼭지, 연밥 꼭지, 가지 꼭지 등 다양한 식물들의 꼭지를 연구한다면, 무심코 버릴 수 있는 소재에서 현대적 가치를 발견할 수 있는 좋은 소재가 될 것으로 사료된다.

Kunrak, a type of Korea traditional cheese, is made using Tarak, a yogurt produced with makgeolli as the fermentation source. Kunrak is produced by removing whey from Tarak, followed by drying process for safe storage and consumption over a longer period. In this study, we produced kunrak based on the method described in「Imwonsibyukji」. Prepared Kunrak was ripening for 96 hours at 20, 30, and 40oC. In order to study characteristics of Kunrak, physiochemical properties (pH, acidity, water contents) and contents of metabolites (organic acids, sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids) were analyzed. During ripening, water contents decreased. The main organic acids in Kunrak were citric acid and lactic acid, and the main free sugar was lactose. Main amino acids were glutamate and phenylalanine, and main fatty acid was saturated capric acid. At later ripening, all metabolites increased immediately after preparation. The sensory evaluation score of overall preference was highest for Kunrak, which was ripening at 40oC for 96 hours. This study was aimed to assay metabolites of Kunrak under various ripening conditions. The results provide basic data to produce conditions for standardized manufacturing of Kunrak.

Records regarding beef cuisine and its tenderization were identified in 38 publications. Old cookbooks, agricultural texts, and Joseon’s encyclopedias addressed the subject 411 times. The beef recipe was as follows: cutting 184 times, seasoning 112 times, moist heat cooking 196 times, dry heat cooking 129 times, and drying off 33 times. Recipe also used main ingredients 194 times, sub ingredients 203 times, garnish eight times, and stock six times. Regarding seasoning and flavoring materials, there were a total of 41 types of spices, tenderizers, and others written 839 times. There are two main types of tenderizing beef: physical and chemical methods. A total of 18 types of natural tenderizers were written 57 times in the recipe.

This article examines the types and cooking methods of Suksilkwa as recorded in 14 royal palace studies and 10 old literature texts of the Joseon dynasty (1392-1909). The types of Suksilkwa during the Joseon dynasty were Joran (棗卵), Yulran (栗卵), and Gangran (薑卵). The frequency of the Suksilkwa types during the Joseon dynasty in order were: Gangran (35.4%), Joran (32.3%), and Yulran (32.3%). Prior to 185 years ago, "Junghae-Jungraeeuigwe (丁亥整禮儀軌)" (1827), Joran (棗卵), Yulran (栗卵), and Gangran (薑卵) were called Samsaegran (三色卵). Nearly 144 years ago, "Mujin-Jinchaneuigwe (戊辰進饌儀軌)" (1868) recalled sulsilgwa (熟實果). "Imjin-Jinchaneuigwe (壬辰進饌儀軌)" (1892) first recalled assorted-sulsilgwa (各色熟實果), in which sansabyeong were added in the sulsilgwa. "Sinchuk-Jinyeoneuigwe (辛丑進宴儀軌)" (July 1901), "Imin-Jinchaneuigwe (壬寅進饌儀軌)" (April 1902), "Imin-Jinyeoneuigwe (壬寅進宴儀軌)" (November 1902) described assorted-sulsilgwa (各色熟實果) in which ohmijabyeong were added to the sulsilgwa. Further study will be conducted on recipes and ingredients recorded in these Euigwe and old books in order to develop a standardized recipe to make Suksilkwa appealing to a global palate.

This study examined the prevalence of the traditional fruit preserve, gwapyeon, recorded in 10 royal palace studies and 10 old literature reports on the Joseon dynasty (1392-1909). A total of 62 papers presented the Gwapyeon kind in the documents of the Joseon dynasty. The protocols of the court of the Joseon Dynasty and old literature discussed the Gwapyeon as follows: Nokmalbyeong (ohmijapyeon) 22.5%; aengdupyeon (櫻桃片) 14.5%; salgupyeon (杏) and bokbunjapyeon (覆盆子) at 11.3% each; beojjipyeon and mogwapyeon (木瓜) at 8.1% each; sansapyeon (山査) and chijapyeon at 6.5% each; duchungpyeon (杜沖) 4.8%; and deuljjukpyeon, saenggangpyeon (薑), daechupyeon (棗) and yujapyeon (柚子) at 1.6% each. From "Junghae-Jungraeeuigwe (丁亥整禮儀軌)" (1827) to "Junghae-Jinchaneuigwe (丁亥進饌儀軌)" (1887) called nokmalbyeong (菉末餠). "Sinchuk-Jinchaneuigwe (辛丑進饌儀軌)" (May 1901) renamed the ohmijabyeong (五味子餠). "Sinchuk-Jinyeoneuigwe (辛丑進宴儀軌)" (July 1901), the assorted-sulsilgwa (各色熟實果 ) were included in the ohmijabyeong. "Imin-Jinchaneuigwe (壬寅進饌儀軌)" (April 1902), The ohmijabyeong (五味子餠) and assorted-sulsilgwa (各色熟實果) was used and a mixture of "Imin-Jinyeoneuigwe (壬寅進宴儀軌)" (November 1902) included the assorted-sulsilgwa (各色熟實果).

T. S. Eliot has been known as a poet and critic for being so serious and moralistic that he might teach his readers. Yet, he published Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats in 1939 for children, especially for his friends. In this sense, this poetry is aimedat amusing children with an allegory of a variety of cats. Usually, the style that children like lies in amusement in form and satirical language in use. Eliot knew it; so it is an interesting task to examine the significance of the old possum, his nickname, from the poetry for children, and the poet hidden behind the nickname. The Old Possum poetry appears to take into account what children like: a poetry collection of amusement and seriousness put together for children using lively rhythms and regular rhymes according to the characteristics of practical cats. The poetry shows a variety of each cat’s characters and habits, which, the poet believes, practically reflect various forms of human life. Above all, Eliot tried to associate practical cats in profound meditation with himself as a thoughtful, yet invisible poet and critic just like the wild, yet shy animal: a metaphor of the old possum in poetry.
