  • The statistics of the safety accidents in labs show that the biggest reason for them is researchers' carelessness and insecure actions. In this way, the safety accidents in labs are affected a lot by researchers' safety consciousness. Therefore, in order to prevent the safety accidents in labs, this study aims at measuring the degree of researchers' safety consciousness, grasping the elements affecting their safety consciousness and suggesting the measures to improve the lacking safety consciousness. To accomplish this goal, a survey was conducted and analyzed on the safety consciousness of 1,226 researchers working at 10 government- supported research institutes in Daedeok R&D Complex. As a results, the measures to improve researchers' safety consciousness will be suggested as follows. First, in an environmental aspect, improvement of labs' environment exposed to danger, interest and participation of CEO, regular discussion on the safety in labs, installment of safety equipments in labs, and enlargement of individual labs are necessary. Second, in an educational aspect, the safety education offered by institutes need to be enhanced, experiential safety education fit for the characteristics of research should be applied, the time for safety education must be observed, and the communication among team members through the collective education in department units and safe culture through the campaigns to enhance safety consciousness have to be established. Third, in a systematic aspect, sanctions have to be imposed on the researchers who do not attend safety education, the number of safety supervisors and safety budget of labs should be increased, a safety certification system need to be introduced when a lab is built, the problems in safety have to be open to all departments and rewards for the persons of merit in labs should be extended.

  • 본 논문은 다국적기업 R&D랩들의 중국내 비즈니스활동이 활성화됨에 따라, 다국적기업이 중국에 어떤 진출동기로 어떤 유형의 R&D랩을 설립하는지에 대한 분석을 진행하고자하였다. 다국적기업 R&D랩의 중국진출동기를 중국의 시장이나 고객을 확보하기 위한 시장요인, 중국의 훌륭한 인적자원을 활용하기 위한 인적자원요인, 중국내 경쟁에서 경쟁우위를 차지하기 위한 경쟁우위요인과 정치적 환경요인 4가지로 분류하고, R&D랩 유형을 글로벌 기술센타, 현지 시장지원 랩, 현지 기술지원 랩 등 3가지 유형으로 분류하여 진출동기별 선택 가능한 R&D랩 유형을 규명하였다. 그 결과, 시장요인을 지향하거나 경쟁우위를 지향하는 다국적기업들은 현지 시장지원 랩을, 중국의 자원요인을 지향하는 다국적기업들은 글로벌 기술센터를 많이 설립하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 중국의 감세, 면세 등 정책적 이점을 지향하여 R&D랩을 진출하는 다국적기업들은 현지 기술지원 랩을 선택하는 경우가 많았다.

  • A series of 4-phenyl-1-(indoline-5-sulfonyl)-2-imidazolone derivatives has been synthesized starting from 2-bromoacetophenone. Reaction of 2-aminoacetophenone obtained from 2-bromoacetophenon by Delepin synthesis and potassium cyanate affords 1,3-dihydro-4-phenyl-2-imidazolone. This key intermediate was treated with sodium hydride and N-trifluoroacetyl-indoline-5-sulfonylchloride, and trifluoroacetyl group was deprotected to give 4-Phenyl-1-(indoline-5-sulfonyl)-2-imidazolone. Various substituents were introduced on the nitrogen of indoline. Antitumor activity of this series of compound was evaluated by MTT method. Nearly all of the compounds showed broad-spectrum activity.

  • we have grown vertically aligned carbon nanotubes on a large area of Co-Ni codeposited Si substrates by thermal chemical vapor deposition using $C_2H_2$ gas. The carbon nanotubes grown by the thermal chemical vapor deposition are multi-wall structure, and the wall suface of nanotubes is covered with defective carbons or carbonaceous particles. The carbon nanotubes range from 50 to 120 nm in diameter and about 130 ${\mu}m$ in length at $950\;^{\circ}C$. Steric hindrance between nanotubes at an initial stage of the growth forces nanotubes to align vertically. The turn-on voltage was about 0.8 $V/{\mu}m$ with a current density of 0.1 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ and emission current reveals the Fowler-Nordheim mode.

  • The purpose of this study is to investigate the influences of science leading schools on primary and middle school students' positive experiences about science (PES) through in-depth interviews with teachers in charge of science leading schools. Science leading schools at the primary and middle school level such as Creative Convergent Science Labs and Student Participatory Science Classes were investigated and 11 teachers were participated in focus group interviews. Teacher in-depth interviews were conducted to explore the factors that led to the effectiveness of science leading schools in improving the student's PES in light of operational characteristics of science leading schools, characteristic factors of science leading schools on students PES, and improvement plans and requirements of science leading schools, as well as implications for general high schools. Science leading schools including Creative Convergent Science Labs and Student Participatory Science Classes applied for the leading school funding to secure supplies, equipments, and lab improvement for authentic science classes. In addition, reconstructed the curriculum more broadly than before, and emphasized and expanded student participatory classes and process-centered assessment at the teacher learning community level. Through student-participatory classes, the science leading schools stimulate students' interest in science, provide students with PES) through various instructions including projects, engage students in interesting science experiences in Creative Convergent Science Labs, and enhance inquiry skills and PES as well as science content knowledge. Based on the results, ways to spread the characteristics of science leading schools to general schools are suggested including expanding budget support, securing the space of science labs and improving spatial composition, providing diverse teaching and learning materials, diversifying assessment subjects and methods, and the necessity of teachers' continuous professional development, etc.

  • Objectives : The biosafety level (BSL) practiced in microbiology laboratories in Korea according to the laboratory biosafety manual published by the World Health Organization (WHO) was evaluated using the data obtained by a survey. Methods : Under the advise of Clinical Laboratory Physicians, 144 types of microorganisms were screened based on the guidelines of biosafety in microbiological and biomedical laboratories published by the US Center for Disease Control and Prevention and classified into 1-4 risk groups. A questionnaire containing 21 questions in 5 areas was developed using the biosafety manual by published WHO. Of the 1,876 different organizations sent the survey, 563 responded to the survey (response rate: 30.0%). The species of microoganisms handled by as well as the biosafety level in microbiology laboratories were analyzed. Results : There were 123 species of microorganisms handled in microbiology labs in Korea. The BSL required in 512 microbiology labs was answered by the survey responders as the first grade in 33 labs (6.4%), 2nd in 437 (85.4%), 3rd in 42 (8.2%), and 4th in none. The average number of items satisfied was 12.2, showing only a 57.9% satisfactory rate and normal distribution. Conclusions : The state of overall observance of BSL in most microbiology labs of Korea was evaluated as lagging compared with the standard set up by WHO. Therefore, the Korean government need to produce and distribute a biosafety manual in microbiology laboratories and make efforts to prevent this threat through measures such as training in biosafety in microbiology labs.

  • Lactic acid bacteria (LABs) have been proposed as a potential oral allergy-therapeutic means of modulating immune phenotype expression in vivo, via promoting or reducing cytokine production. This study investigated the ability of LABs to suppress allergic response via modulating cytokine production in mice splenocytes. BALB/c mice were intraperitoneally primed with ovalbumin together with alum adjuvant to invoke antigen-specific Th1/Th2 cytokine-secreting cell populations in splenocytes. Spleen cells from mice fed with Lactobacillus confusus PL9001 (KCCM-10245), L. fermentum PL9005 (KCCM-10250), L. plantarum PL9011 (KCCM-10358), and Bifidobacterium infantis PL9506 (KCCM-10406) suppressed the levels of Th2 cell cytokines such as IL-4 and IL-5 during antigen sensitization. In addition, all mice fed with LABs induced secretion of Th1 cell cytokines such as IL-2 in splenocytes. These results suggested that LABs are anti-allergic agents, in view of their Th1/anti-Th2 immunoregulation.
