  • Listening has been a neglected research area despite the crucial role it plays. The present investigation was aimed at examining how the provision of topical knowledge and learners' listening proficiency level affect learners' listening performance under four different preparatory activity conditions: topical knowledge, vocabulary list, language structure, and no activity. A total of 134 participants, assigned to the four different activity groups, took part in the study. The results revealed that the learners who were provided with topical knowledge before listening performed significantly better than the other learners, followed by the vocabulary list group and language structure group, which might be attributed to the activation of their content schemata. The learners who did not perform any preparatory activities achieved the lowest scores. When it comes to the impact of listening proficiency, it was revealed that learners' proficiency level had a significant influence on learners' listening performance, and there was a significant interaction between the learners' level of listening proficiency and preparatory activity. Providing relevant knowledge was effective for both higher level and lower level learners, whereas teaching vocabulary before listening was effective for higher level learners but was not for lower level ones. Based on the results, some pedagogical implications and suggestions for future research were discussed.

  • In this study, the crude methanol extract of mulberry leaves was fractionated with chloroform, ethyl acetate, n-butanol, and water, successively. The antioxidant activities of the fractions were examined with the 2-deoxyribose oxidation and linoleic acid peroxidation methods. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the strongest antioxidant activity. From it we isolated chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, quercetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$, and kaempferol $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ with preparatory octadecyl silane-high performance liquid chromatography (ODS-HPLC), and identified the compounds by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and fast atom bombardment mass (FAB-MS) analyses. Overall, quercetin $3-O-{\beta}-D-glucopyranoside$ showed the strongest antioxidant activity by both the 2-deoxyribose oxidation and rat liver microsome peroxidation methods.

  • This study examined the effects of chestnut powder content (2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%) on the antioxidant activity and quality characteristics of rice muffins. With the increasing chestnut powder content, the total polyphenol content, flavonoid content, antioxidant activity (determined by radical scavenging activity and reducing power), hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and overall acceptability (determined by sensory evaluation) increased, whereas the moisture content, pH, specific volume, and cooking loss decreased. Regarding color, chestnut powder content was negatively correlated with L and b and positively correlated with a. Notably, overall acceptability abruptly decreased to its minimum at 10%. Thus, adding powder at loadings of <7.5% improved the antioxidant activity and acceptability of rice muffins. Our results can be used as preparatory data for developing a rice muffin model.

  • Chitosan non-woven fabrics were acetylated to improve their antimicrobial properties. The active chlorine content, antimicrobial properties, storage stability, and surface properties of acetylated chitosan non-woven fabrics were investigated. The active chlorine content of the fabrics increased upon reduction of the degree of the acetylation or increase in sodium hypochlorite concentration. Acetylated chitosan non-woven fabrics showed powerful antimicrobial activity by efficiently killing Escherichia coli and forming a growth inhibition zone for Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy observations demonstrated that the acetylated chitosan non-woven fabrics were not damaged in sodium hypochlorite solution.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate the responses of the trunk muscle during expected and unexpected sudden loadings of the hands on the sagittal plane. Twenty, young healthy adults(male 10, female 10) were participated to two different loading conditions : expected and unexpected sudden loadings. Different weights were dropped in hand : 5lb, 6lb, 7lb for male, and 3lb, 4lb, 5lb for female. EMG activity of rectus abdominalis and erector spine muscle were collected. Rectus abdominalis and lumbar erector spine muscle activity significantly increased in unexpected sudden loadings than expected sudden loadings(p<.05). This results indicate that co-contraction of abdominal and back muscle contribute for dynamic spinal stability during expected or unexpected activities of daily living. Preparatory adjustments can be made which reduce the postural perturbation to sudden load and prevent low back injuries.
