The purpose of this study was to investigate the educational effects of an animation materials developed with the macroscopic particle moving sight. The 11 animations developed by the researchers showed the movements of molecules, ions, and electrons. The materials were developed for teachers to use when they taught "electrochemical cell' unit. The subjects were 151 students of 9th grade who were divided into the experimental and control group and were taught during 16 hours. In order to figure out the characteristics of each student before the instructions, a short-version GALT(Group Assessment of Logical Thinking) and the pretest of conceptions were carried out. After the instructions, students tested 3 types of exam; the posttest of conceptions, attitude test connected with science, cognition test. After 4 months later, students tested the posttest of conceptions agin for long-term memory effect. It was found that the exper-imental group using the developed animation materials had significantly higher scores of conceptual understanding than control group. The experimental group had also significantly higher scores of the long-term memory test and attitude test than control group. The results mean that animation materials which shows the macroscopic particle movement help stu-dents to understand scientific concepts and to elevate interests.

Spectrophotometric enzymatic analysis and amperometric enzymatic analysis for the determinations of glucose and ethanol were studied utilizing glucose oxidase (GO) and alcohol oxidase (AO), respectively, which commonly consume $O_2$ and produce $H_2O_2$. For the determination of glucose, $H_2O_2$ were coupled to $K_4Fe(CN)_6$ via peroxidase producing $K_3Fe(CN)_6$ whose absorbance was measured at 418 nm or whose diffusion current was measured on the glassy carbon electrode at an applied potential of -55 mV vs. Ag/AgCl (sat. KCl) reference electrode. Amperometric analysis was 1000 times more sensitive as well as 10 times better in the linear concentration range than spectrophotometric analysis. For the determination of ethanol, AO only was used for the enzymatic analysis, since $K_3Fe(CN)_6$ was completely disappeared as soon as AO was added. Either rate of $H_2O_2$ produced was amperometrically measured at +0.900 V or rate of $O_2$ consumed was measured at -0.500 V vs. Ag/AgCl(sat. KCl) reference electrode.

The ion-selective membrane fabricated with 33 wt% PVC, 66 wt% o-NPOE and 1 wt% 4'-benzothiazolylbenzo-15-crown-5 (TB15C5) as a neutral carrier exhibited an enhanced selectivity to potassium ion over sodium ion compared to those prepared with other 15-crown-5 or 18-crown-6 derivatives. The potentiometric properties (response slope, selectivity, detection limits and lifetime) of TB15C5-based ISE membranes along with those based on valinomycin, benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5), 4'-aminobenzo-15-crouwn-5 (AB15C5), benzo-18-crown-6 (B18C6), dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) and bis[(benzo-15-crown-5)-4'-ylmethyl]pimelate (PI-Ⅱ) ionophores were carefully examined under the same experimental conditions. The enhanced selectivity of TB15C5-based membrane to potassium is explained in terms of the effect of the benzothiazol functional group and the distribution coefficients of metal ions.

Railway turnout systems are one of the most important systems in a railway and abnormal turnout systems can cause serious accidents. To detect an abnormal state of a turnout, turnout clearance detectors are widely used. These devices consider a failure of a turnout clearance detectors to be a failure of the turnout system, that could hinder train operations. Analysis of turnout clearance detector failures is very important to ensure normal train operation. We categorized failures of detectors into four groups to identify failure characteristics of the 140 detectors, which are composed of main line detectors (A), side tracks (B), detectors that are in operation more than 80 times a day (C) and detectors that are in operation fewer than 10 times per day. Failures of detectors have mainly been caused in the control part, in the cables and sensors; failures are classified into four groups (A, B, C and D). We have tried to find failure density distributions for each type of failures, inferring the parameter distributions a priori. Finally, using the Bayesian inference we proposed a maintenance time for control parts through the mean time of the detector, life and the life expectancy.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of binding agents (carrageenan, transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber) on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of pork patties. One percent of each pork patty formulation was prepared with one of the following carrageenan, transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, or wheat fiber. The lightness and redness values of raw and cooked pork patties with carrageenan, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05). The water holding capacity, cooking yield, and moisture content of pork patties containing carrageenan, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05). However, the reduction in diameter and thickness was lower than the control (p<0.05). The protein and fat content of the pork patties were not significantly different between the control and patties with binding agent addition. The shear forces of the pork patties with transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were significantly higher than the control (p<0.05), while the pork patties with carrageenan were significantly lower than control (p<0.05). Among the sensory characteristics, tenderness, juiciness, and overall acceptability of pork patties containing carrageenan, transglutaminase, isolated soy protein, and wheat fiber were slightly higher, although there was no significant difference. Therefore, pork patties containing binding agents are useful in making new ground meat products with desirable quality characteristics.

A DNA sequence encoding the adr subtype preS2 region of hepatitis B virus envelope protein was fused to 5' end of lacZ gene yielding a plasmid pTSZ, in order to produce a preS2-$\beta$-galactosidase fusion protein. Serial deletions from 3' and 5' end of preS2 were constructed in plasmids, which were expressed and their antigenicities were examined with the monoclonal antibody H8. Deletions from amino and carboxy terminal to certain points did not affect the antigenicity, but the longer deletions destroyed the antigenicity. End points of deleted preS2 sequence were determined by DNA sequencing. As a result, each end of preS2 epitope was located in the region of amino acid residue 130-132 and 140-142, respectively. Residue 143 may be supplementary for antigenic epitope since the deletion from carboxy terminal to residue 143 revealed partial defect of antigenicity. In the interval of antigenic epitope the amino acid differences between adr and adw2 subtype occurred ar residue 130, 132, and 141. This result indicated that one or more of the three residues are responsible for the binding specificity of monoclonal antibody H8 to adr subtype preS2 fusion protein.

Cell volume and DNA contents of the fusants were similar to those of parents. Genetic stability of the fusants was increased when they were cultured on minimal medium (MM) rather than on complete medium (CM), and the fusants were stabilized by subculturing 7 generations each 7 day on MM agar. The finally selected fusants after being cultured for 6 months on CM were stable without segregation. The fusants could also form nuclein and ascospores, and show red and pink colors by the test of TTC colorization. Assimilability and fermentability of carbon sources of the fusants were similarto those of parents. The tolerance of KCl, NaCl, sodium propionate and cycloheximide showed the traits of one strain of parents. When the fusants were cultured for 72 hr and 60 hr in the medium containing 20% glucose and sucrose, respectively, the yield of ethanol for FWKS 260 was reached to 9.6 v/v% and 9.8v/v%, respectively. The sensitive strain Kyokai 7 was found to be killed entirely after cultivation of 48 hr by the killer toxin from the fusants. The recipient S 29 and Kyokai 7 were found to have neither L nor M dsRNA plasmid. However, K 52 and fusants had both L and M dsRNA plasmid of 4.7 kb and 2.5 kb, respectively. The curants treated by heat and cycloheximide did not contain M dsRNA plasmid, but had large amounts of L dsRNA plasmid of those of killer yeasts.

This study investigated the effects of the cognitive acceleration program devised for accelerating the development of formal reasoning ability of students. ‘Thinking Science’ activities developed by the Cognitive Acceleration through Science Education(CASE) project were implemented to 420 students in 5th grade aged 10+ in four elementary schools over a period of two yea. Homogeneity between the experimental group and control group was tested with SRT II, and the improvement of formal reasoning ability of the students was tested with SRT III. The results were analyzed by treatment, gender, and cognitive levels of the students. Statistically significant gains were shown in the CASE group compared with those in the control group. Cognitive level of girls in the CASE group increased as compared with the control group, while there was moderate effect in boys for the primary school. These results implied that the thinking science activities were effective in cognitive acceleration of girls aged 10+. It was shown that much more CASE students in concrete operational level shifted to formal operational level as compared with the control group while there were no significant effects in the other levels for primary school.

세계 경제질서의 급속한 변화에 따라 최근에 많은 선진국들이 경쟁법을 개정하거나 앞으로 개정할 움직임을 활발히 전개하고 있다. 특히 이중에서 글로벌 경제의 급속한 진전에 따라 여기에 대응하기 위한 경쟁법의 개정 움직임도 활발하게 이루어지고 있음을 음미해보아야 할 것이다. 미국은 반트러스트법의 개정을 검토하기 위하여 공청회를 개최하고 ''95년 5월 ''새로운 하이테크 글로벌 시장에서의 경쟁정책''이라는 보고서를 발표하였으며, 이에 따라 합병심사에서 효율성을 앞세워 미국 국내기업의 해외 진출을 지원하고 합병을 용이하게 하도록 ''92년에 제정된 합병 가이드라인을 개정하였다. EU의 구주위원회도 기업결합의 글로벌화가 촉진되도록 ''96년 7월 합병규제규칙을 개정하여 업계가 손쉽게 합병을 할 수 있도록 절차에 있어 일원적 처리의 범위를 확대하였으며, 기업의 규제대상이 되는 연간 매상고기준을 인하하고 합병심사의 대상기업이라도 경쟁상 중대한 문제가 발생하지 않는 것으로 판단되면 공동체 시장에서 적합성을 선언할 수 있도록 하고, 경쟁제한법 협정의 적용제외 규정에서 수직적 제한에 대한 경쟁법 적용여부의 결정은 당사자의 시장점유율을 고려해서 적용여부를 결정하는 등 폭넓은 선택이 가능하도록 개정하였다. 이에 따라 EU국가인 독일, 영국, 프랑스 등의 EU회원국들은 EU합병규제규칙 및 EU경쟁법과의 조화가 이루어지도록 자국의 법체계를 정비하고 있다. 이에 따라 독일은 지난 ''97년 7월 31일에 경쟁제한금지법 제정 이후 40년만에 근본적인 개정의 필요에 따라 EU경쟁법과의 조화, 카르텔에서 적용제외 규정을 글로벌 경제구조에 맞도록 과감히 삭제$\cdot$축소하고, 합병규제대상의 매상고기준을 상향(5억$\right$10억마르크)하고 법체계를 명확하고 알기 쉽게 정리하는 개정(안)을 발표한 바 있다. 그리고 영국 무역산업성 장관은 지난 ''97년 8월 7일 영국의 경쟁법개정(안)을 금년 가을까지 성립을 목표로 발표하였는데, 그 주요 내용은 반경쟁적 협정 및 시장지배력 남용에 대한 강력한 억제력과 중대한 남용행위에 제재금을 부과함으로써 경쟁을 통한 소비자의 이익과 선택을 확보하고 산업계의 불필요한 부담을 경감토록 하여 글로벌시장 경쟁에서 혁신과 투자를 자극하도록 유도하였고, 프랑스는 생산업자와 유통업자에 의한 부당염매금지 제도를 도입하고 경쟁제한행위금지 위반시의 벌칙을 강화했다. 일본은 치열한 국제경쟁에 대응하고 경제구조의 개혁과 사업자활동을 보다 촉진하기 위하여 지난 1997년 6월 11일 일본독점금지법을 개정하여 독점금지법에 위배되지 않는 범위에서 지주회사 설립 금지를 해체하고 대규모회사 주식보유총액제한 규제대상을 완화하는 한편 국제계약신고제도를 폐지하였다. 캐나다는 합병신청서 제출기간을 연장하고 통신판매를 직접규제대상으로 경쟁법 개정을 준비하였고, 호주는 거래관행법을 개정하여 연방정부와 주$\cdot$준주 정부간의 경쟁정책의 법적용을 통일하고 거래관행법 적용을 모든 사업에 확대하며, 재판매가격유지행위의 금지대상에 용역(전기통신서비스)도 포함시키고 시장참입을 촉진하는 제도를 신설하였다. 뉴질랜드는 합병이 국내시장에 영향을 주는 경우에는 외국에서의 합병에도 경쟁법을 확대적용하도록 하였다. 위와 같이 세계의 많은 국가에서 경쟁정책에 대한 새로운 동향과 공정거래법에 대한 개정작업이 활발히 이루어지고 있는데, 본고는 미국, EU, 독일, 영국, 프랑스, 일본, 캐나다 및 호주와 뉴질랜드 등 주요선진국에서의 공정거래법 개정 동향에 대한 주요 내용을 소개한 것이다.
