For example, to synthesize amino acids A and B, a method of im
plementing biocatalysts (enzymes) enables the synthesis of spe
cific structures only (e.g., when AA, AB, BA and BB combinatio
ns are possible, only AB may be selectively synthesized). The
peptide too, gains one site-specific structure.

The SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device), which
is a high sensitivity magnetic sensor, is able to measure subtle magnetic fields (magnetoencephalographs) created by nervou
s activity, and it is not hindered by the skull. This allows t
he accurate and individual tracking of nervous activity. For e
xample, comparing the magnetoencephalographs of odorant recept
or deficient murine models that do not respond to odorant stimuli (knockout mice), with those of normal mice, allows accurat
e visualization of cerebral nerve activities in response to chemical odorant stimuli.

We can provide a method of early heart disease detection thatcombines life science techniques with SQUID* measurements.For
example, we can create a murine model of myocardial infarction(a knockout mouse), and take magnetocardiographs using SQUID
from birth until the onset of myocardial infarction, and thenuntil it dies, to ascertain the changes that occur in the magn
etocardiographs with the onset of myocardial infarction. Moreover, comparing them with the results of autopsies will allow us to make diagrams to draw correlations between the states ofthe disease and the magnetocardiographs.* SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device): A high sensitivity magnetic s

SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device), which isa high sensitivity magnetic sensor, is able to measure weak magnetic fields (magnetoencephalographs) generated by neurotransmissions (brain activity) without being obstructed by the skul
l. For example, using SQUID to take measurements of the area around a brain tumor that has been found through MRI, enables amore accurate ascertainment of its position and state. This not only gives the surgeon more information before an operation, but it can also be used to obtain informed consent regardingside effects after surgery.

One of the ways of prolonging the life of tissue valves is to

und that the percentage of dissatisfied employees was smaller
and that intellectual productivity could be better maintained
when the lighting is decreased rather than when the temperatur
e is raised, and that this measure significantly decreased ele
ctricity consumption.When implementing power-saving measures,
it is believed that the electricity consumption amount can be
decreased effectively without compromising the comfort level and productivity of employees by giving priority to saving elec
tricity through lighting, installing desk lamps, and selecting
appropriate power-saving approaches tailored to the attributes of employees who occupy the floor.

d the environmental factors demanded of workspaces from the perspectives of intellectual productivity and energy conservatio
n.[Research Outcomes](1) Important employee behaviors were dif
ferent for each intellectual activity. Respondents declared that knowledge creation requires diverse employee actions, suchas divergent thinking, informal communication, and relaxing. (2) At the buildings which were studied, employees carried out
active communication not only at meeting spaces, but also in t

A measurement survey conducted in 2004-2006 took environmental
measurements at four non-air-conditioned train stations in To
kyo and implemented a questionnaire survey to roughly 4,000 pe
ople. The results showed that the maximum acceptable temperatu
re declared by more than 20% of the respondents in the summer
was the standard effective temperature (SET*) of 32˚C, and that the temperature exceeded this threshold limit in many time ranges. This threshold limit is higher than the maximum accepta
ble indoor temperature. The main factors attributed to hot train stations are weak air current and the considerable effectsof the sun’s rays, and proposals are being studied to addressthese factors. In the FY2011 study, a measurement survey was c
onducted at train stations at which a large commercial facilit
y and an air conditioning system were installed inside the tic
ket gate. The results demonstrated that although the maximum a
cceptable temperature and comfort level in the summer were thesame as non-air conditioned train stations, the lower limit of the comfort range was higher for train stations installed wi
th air conditioning systems. The inflow of outdoor air could i
nhibit thermal environment control inside a train station. The
refore, detailed analyses are being carried out of the factors, and countermeasure proposals are being reviewed.

of such studies are being implemented for developing measures
to deal with indoor SVOC contamination.

separation at a molecular level, and we have continued our research in this area. We developed a practical method of forming a thin zeolite membrane on a porous support. We also develop

in different directions. As such, it is possible to create a large domain of arrayed particles fixed on the substrate, rangi
ng from a size of 10 to several 100 nanometers. However, disor

Using Photocathode RF GunIn this research, compact and high quality soft X-ray sources are being developed using inverse Com
pton scattering, with the final goal of applying them to soft
X-ray microscopes for biological observations. Inverse Compton
scattering involves the creation of shorter wavelength lightthrough the collision of high energy electrons and long wavele
ngth light, and is the inverse process of the generally well-k
nown Compton scattering. The Washio Laboratory is working on t
he development of high quality electron beam sources using a p
hotocathode RF gun, as well as researching their applications.
This research is one of the experiments for these applications. So far, the laboratory has succeeded in the preparation anddetection of soft X-rays using inverse Compton scattering.

The use of the DGC method allows the preparation of zeolites
with structures and compositions not obtainable by the hydroth
ermal synthesis method. The Laboratory conducts research on the crystallization mechanism of zeolite by the DGC method. Using the DGC or hydrothermal synthesis method, the Laboratory sea
rches for microporous crystals with new structures, assesses catalyst characteristics, ascertains the crystallization process, and develops a method for inserting heteroelements into the
crystal skeleton.

We implement a method of analyzing inter-industry relations in
the evaluation of influence by corporate environmental activi
ties on the environment from a wide range of perspectives. Fur
thermore, econometrics methods based on social statistics will
be applied in order to evaluate and analyze the correlation b
etween consumer behavior and the activities of corporations themselves, such as family budget surveys and industrial statist
ics surveys. Consideration will then be given to consumer sati
sfaction (usefulness index), production costs incurred by thecompany, environmental impact (the LCA-based CO2 emissions res
ulting from the manufacturing of that product), etc., at the same time, to determine what corporations should do and what ki
nd of information they should publicize in order to reduce theCO2 emissions of society as a whole when faced with the difficult problem of choosing between whether to:1. Sell PET bottle
beverages refrigerated or at normal temperature2. Promote theuse of public transport or carsharing3. Build a new eco-houseor renovate an existing one
