  • The purpose this research is to develop QCM (quartz crystal microbalance) biosensor for the determination of haptoglobin. Haptoglobin is an acute-phase protein with a hemoglobin-binding activity and has a potential to be used as a biomarker for infection or cancer. Haptoglobin level in milk has been used for the diagnosis of cow mastitis. In this study, anti-bovine haptoglobin antibody or bovine hemoglobin was chemically immobilized on the surface of the QCM, and the resulting sensor chips were tested for their response to samples containing haptoglobin at different concentrations. Concentration dependent frequency change was observed with both of the sensor chips. Especially, the sensor chip containing anti-bovine haptoglobin antibody showed sufficient sensitivity in the concentrations typically observed in the cows with mastitis.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a positive psychology-based mental health promotion program for high school students. Methods: This study used a randomized control group pretest-posttest design. A total of 47 high school students participated from two high schools in Gyeonggi Province. They were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n=24), which participated in the 8-session program, or to a control group (n=23). Psychological well-being, depression, and self-esteem were measured. Results: A significant difference in psychological well-being was observed between the two groups after the program. However, there were no significant between-group differences in depression or self-esteem. Conclusion: The positive psychology-based mental program was effective at increasing psychological well-being in adolescents, especially high school students. This study suggests that a school curriculum could incorporate positive psychology-based mental programs for high school students to promote their mental health.

  • The rectnt studies on the learning of the scientific concepts have suggested that most students have misconceptions related to the contents to be learned and that those misconceptions exert their influences on the subsequent learning of the content Those facts necessitate the identification of the misconceptions before the instructions and the preparation of the instructional materials based on those misconceptions identified. Several studies also revealed that such biological areas as cell division, reproduction and fertilization were ranked among the most difficult areas for high school students to learn. Therefore, this study had its triple objectives as follows: (1) Identification of misconceptions in such areas as cell division, reproduction and fertilization. (2) Investigation of the current high school biology textbook I's as the sources of those misconceptions. (3) Development of teaching materials based on the misconceptions identified and the problems in the textbooks analyzed. This study identified several misconceptions held by high school students of biological concepts related to the conceptual areas of life-continuity, and found the problems in learning of the high school biology textbooks. Based on the misconceptions and the problems, a teaching/learning model and its content material were developed at the final course of this study.

  • This study aims to present the effects of discussion-centered reading education on high school students' personality & sociality using omnidirectional reading-discussion programs. To this end, we adopt an experimental research design with pre/post-test on personality and sociality using the program with the first and second grades high school students located in Chungju City as participants. The results show that the discussion-centered reading education has significant effects on the personality and sociality of high-school students.

  • The purpose of this study was to develop learning materials based on the Kepler's abductive reasoning and to identify high school students' rule-inferring strategies on the law of planetary motion. The learning materials including the concepts of solar magnetic field, conservation of figure skater's angular momentum and Kepler's polyhedral theory were developed and the questions about Kepler's 2nd and 3rd law of planetary motion were also created. The participants were 79science high school students and 83general high school students. The patterns and properties of their abductive inference were analyzed. The findings revealed that the students showed 'incomplete analogy abduction', 'analogy abduction' and 'reconstruction' to generate the hypotheses concerning the Mars' motion related to the solar magnetic field. There were more general high school students who showed the incomplete analogy abduction than science high school students. On the other hand, there were more science high school students who showed the analogy abduction and reconstruction strategy than general high school students. Also, they showed 'incomplete analogy abduction', 'analogy abduction' and 'model construction and manipulation' to generate the hypotheses concerning Kepler's second law. A number of general high school students showed the incomplete analogy. It is suggested that because the analogy of figure skater cause the students' alternative framework to use, more detailed demonstration is necessary in class. In addition, students combined Kepler's polyhedral theory with their prior knowledge to infer Kepler's third law.

  • Glycosylation, which is one of the most common post-translation modification (PTMs) of proteins, plays a variety of crucial roles in many cellular events and biotherapeutics. Recent advances have led to the development of various analytical methods employing a mass spectrometry for glycomic and glycoproteomic study. However, site-specific glycosylation analysis is still a relatively new area with high potential for technologies and method development. This review will cover current MS-based workflows and technologies for site-specific mapping of glycosylation ranging from glycopeptide preparation to MS analysis. Bioinformatic tools for comprehensive analysis of glycoprotein with high-throughput manner will be also included.

  • We have investigated degradation of short channel n-type poly-Si TFTs with LDD under high gate and drain voltage stress due to self-heating. We have found that the threshold voltage of short channel TFT is shifted to negative direction on the selfheating stress, whereas the threshold voltage of long channel is moved to positive direction.

  • The purpose of this study was to survey science teachers, perception and attitudes on disposal of school laboratory waste water and materials. To fulfill this aim, a questionnaire was administered to 244 secondary school science teachers. The result of this study revealed that there was no large disparity in the degree of understanding of laboratory waste disposal and the laboratory waste water treatment, and in secondary science teachers' perception and practicing attitude on the environment. While science teachers had deep understanding of laboratory waste disposal and its influence on environmental pollution, they expressed less positive attitude toward the actual disposal of waste materials and waste water, and participation in teacher training. Therefore, it is necessary to provide standards of systematized disposal methods and proper disposal facilities in middle and high school laboratories, as well as to investigate teachers' needs before providing teacher training program.

  • Comprehensive utilization of tungsten tailings resources not only solves environmental problems but also creates huge economic benefits. The high content of iron impurity in tungsten tailings will have adverse effect on the downstream comprehensive utilization, whether flotation or pickling. In this paper, the Superconducting High Gradient Magnetic Separation(S-HGMS) is used to remove of Fe impurities from tungsten tailings. The optimal experimental parameters are as follows: background magnetic induction intensity is 3.0T, slurry flow velocity is 500ml/min. The Fe removal rate of Fe was 68.8% and the recovery rate was 59.53%.
