This study is aimed to provide members with basic materials helpful to research development and suggest development measures of journal. The author analyzed the number of papers, research field, type of papers, and number of authors based on the title of paper. The total number of papers is 916 and average number of paper is 33. The research field was biochemistry 167 (18.2%), microbiology 160 (17.4%), histology & cytology 99 (10.8%), molecular genetics 77 (8.5%), hematology 69 (7.5%), physiologic function 64 (7.0%), immunology 60 (6.5%), blood bank 33 (3.6%), radioimmunoassay 33 (3.6%), parasitology 27 (2.9%), quality control 18 (2.0%), urinalysis & body fluid 13 (1.4%), cytogenetics 12 (1.3%), flow cytometry analysis 6 (0.7%), and other articles were 78 (8.5%).

The average number of papers was 33 for 28 years from 1985 to 2012, it is fewer than number of technologists and professors working currently regardless of the level of quantity and quality. The KAMT needs paper promoting measures and strategic investment on the scholarly journals that can aggressively promote to members and inspire research desire for korea citation index (KCI) registered article selection of KJCLS in the future.
