Konkankit, Chilaluck C.; Marker, Sierra C.; Bigham, Nicholas P.; Dale, Darren S.; Zax, David B.; Lorey, Daniel R., II; Wilson, Justin J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
There currently exists a significant deficiency in the nuclear chemistry workforce within the United States, despite its importance in areas of medicine, national security, and energy. Poor coverage of this topic across many chemistry departments at the undergraduate level likely contributes to this shortage. Increasing interest and hands-on…

Garrett, Teresa A.; Rose, Rebecca L.; Bell, Sidney M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2013
In this laboratory module, introductory biochemistry students are exposed to two-dimensional [superscript 1]H-nuclear magnetic resonance of glycerophospholipids (GPLs). Working in groups of three, students enzymatically synthesized and purified a variety of 2-acyl lyso GPLs. The structure of the 2-acyl lyso GPL was verified using [superscript…

Dulski, Richard E.; Raven, Ronald J. – Journal of Research and Development in Education, 1994
A study concurrently identified significant relationships between the attitudes of high school students toward nuclear energy, environmental issues, energy concepts, science concepts, space exploration, and metrication topical areas. Surveys indicated there were significant concurrent attitudinal relationships between specific science-related…
