  • As the aging population increases and interest in well-being increases, the importance of developing special crops increases. Natural medicine based on the special crops has been mainly used as an adjunct therapy for many diseases and symptoms based on culture, traditional medicine, and experience. In particular, it is attracting attention as a new resource to develop new drugs such as Artemisinin, a treatment for malaria. In order to efficiently use crops, it is essential to establish omics data such as genomes, transcriptomes, and metabolites of special-purpose crops. However, many special-purpose crops have large, heterogeneous and polyploid genomes that require high cost and long time to reference genome sequencing. Therefore, we built an inexpensive, fast, but very usefill reference transcriptome as the first step. We constructed high-quality reference transcriptom sets of Codonopsis lanceolata and Ixeridium dentatum with PacBio data. Our team will continue to construct reference transcriptoms of more special-purpose crops, and the data will be released by the National Agricultural Biotechnology Information Center (NABIC) in order to be widely used in agricultural as well as medical R&D.

  • In this study, we observed the penetration of the resin infiltrant into natural initial caries by SEM and CLSM, evaluated the pH and viscosity of resin infiltrant and several adhesives(All-bond 2, Scotchbond Multi-purpose, Clearfil SE bond), and measured the surface roughness and the microhardness on permanent teeth before and after applied resin infiltrant into initial enamel caries. The viscosity(Pa.s) was observed for resin infiltrant($0.173{\pm}0.012$), All-bond 2($0.754{\pm}0.030$), Scotchbond Multi-purpose($1.46{\pm}0.137$), and Clearfil SE bond($1.28{\pm}0.125$). The pH was measured for resin infiltrant (4.7), All-bond 2(7.5), Scotchbond Multi-purpose(8.2), and Clearfil SE bond(4.67). An application procedure of resin infiltrant increased the surface roughness and the microhardness insignificantly(p>0.05), when compared to non-applied specimens.

  • As an at-reactor(AR) storage method o( spent fuel, there are horizontal concrete module type, metal storage cask type, concrete storage cask type, dual purpose (transportation and storage) cask type and multi-purpose (transportation, storage and disposal) cask type. All other types except multi-purpose one have been already used for AR dry storage of spent fuels after obtaining operation license in various foreign countries. Also the development of multi-purpose type has been continued for operation license. In America, Japan, Germany, Canada, Spain, Switzerland, and Czech Republic, etc., AR dry storage facilities are under operation or on propulsion, and spent fuels are transported to interim storage facility or reprocessing plant after dry storage at reactor temporarily. At Wolsung site, in case of Korea, concrete silo type has already been introduced, and it is believed to be inevitable to store spent fuels at reactor temporarily, considering the reality that storage capacity of spent fuel is approaching to the limit in some nuclear power plants. In this report, the system characteristics, design requirements, technical standards and status of AR storage system, which is suitable for domestic site such as Kori, have been studied. In most cases, the licensed period of storage cask is limited up to 20 years and the integrity of material and maintenance of leaktightness are required during the whole service life.

  • Purpose: The present study was aimed to compare the difference in adherence level of microorganisms according to contact lens materials and protein deposition and to evaluate disinfection efficacy of multipurpose solution. Methods: The evaluations of micro-organisms' adherence and disinfection efficacy of multi-purpose solution were conducted by employing the Part 2. Regimen Procedure for Disinfecting Regiments in the Disinfection Efficacy Testing under the "FDA Evaluation Criteria & Method". Results: Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Serratia marcescens, Candida albicans except Staphylococcus aureus adhered more on etafilcon A lens and disinfection efficacy of total 4 products investigated was almost perfect except Candida albicans. The 3 micro-organisms except Serratia marcescens adhered more to albumin-predeposited lens. Disinfection efficacy of multi-purpose solution was higher against the micro-organisms adhered to albumin-deposited lens than against the micro-organisms adhered to the lysozyme-deposited lens. Furthermore, disinfection efficacy of multi-purpose solution was different according to types of micro-organisms. Conclusions: It was revealed that the type of micro-organisms, the lens materials and type of absorbed tear protein affected the amount of adhered micro-organisms to contact lens and that adhesion of tear protein could induce the change of disinfection efficacy of multi-purpose solution. It suggest that the hygienic condition of contact lens can vary by these factors influencing on disinfection efficacy and the occurrence of adverse effect can be affected.

  • This study aims to investigate how high school teachers and students perceive the purpose of science learning. Participants were high school science teachers and students from one hundred and sixty high schools nationwide, which were selected through proportional stratified sampling method. Teachers and students responded on open-ended questionnaires about the purpose of science learning. The data were analyzed using the semantic network analysis method. Our study illustrates three major finding: First, teachers recognized the intrinsic value related to cognitive domain as the more important purpose of science learning, while students recognized the extrinsic value related to personal usefulness domain as more important. Second, teachers' responses were significantly different depending on the teaching career. Beginning teachers believed both intrinsic and extrinsic values were equally important, while experienced teachers believed the cognitive domain about understanding of scientific knowledge was more important than intrinsic values. In other words, the differences in perception of the purpose of science between teachers and students, the experienced teachers is greater than the beginning teachers. Finally, students' responses were different depending on their academic track. Humanity major students recognized that learning science made their everyday-life easier while science major students recognized that learning science should be related to their future careers. In conclusion, the results of this study is expected to be of use as the basic data to identify the characteristic of teachers and students related to science.

  • In AI chatbot service via a messenger, a profile image of the chatbot is the first thing that users see to communicate with the chatbot. This profile image not only manages an impression about the profile owner in SNS on followers, but also makes an important impression about chatbot services on users. Thus motivated, this study investigates proper profile images tailored for the types of chatbot services and users. Specifically, I reviewed the preferred images and expressions of chatbots for each purpose of chatbot service. Then, in a case study, I collected and analyzed the representative chatbot profile images for the purpose of fun and counseling. The profile images are categorized as robot, human, animal, and abstract images. Based on these categories, I surveyed the preferred profile image of the chatbot service in either the text type or image type alternatives. For the purpose of fun, in the text version, I found that both men and women preferred a human image to others. However, in the image version, men preferred woman and robot images while women preferred cute animation character and robot images. For counseling services, both men and women preferred woman and animal images most, which is similar to the results of the text version of questionnaires as well. While both genders consistently preferred real photo images, women tend to like abstract images more than men do. I expect that the results of this study would be useful to develop the proper profile images of AI chatbot for each service purpose.
