| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed “Semi-quantitative assay of amylase and protease activities using agar plates with enzyme substrates.” Moreover we developed “Sex determination of the silkworm by manual polymerase chain reaction.” In order to verify the effectiveness of them, we taught the high school students. As a results, the high school students could get a good results. They could understand the meaning of the procedure and discuss the results well. It is considered that they could understand the semi-quantitative assay of amylase and protease activities in digestion juice of the silkworm and PCR deeply through these experiments. As our developed experiments will be done in the high school laboratory, they will be contributed the high school biology education.
