Designed Quality coffee from fermentation

Designed Quality coffee from fermentation

Abstract

Coffee is a critical agricultural commodity to be used to produce a premium beverage to serve people worldwide. Coffee microbiome turned to be an essential tool to improve the bean quality through the natural fermentation. Therefore, understanding the microbial diversities could create the final product's better quality. This study investigated the natural microbial consortium during the wet process fermentation of coffee onsite in Thailand to characterize the microorganisms involved in correlation toward the biochemical characteristics and metabolic attributes. Roasting is another important step in developing the complex flavor/ aroma that make coffee to be enjoyable. During the roasting process, the beans undergo many complex and alternatively change in the physicochemical properties from the gained substances in the fermentation process. The changing in the formation of the substances responsible for the sensory qualities, physicochemical/ aroma attributes as well as the health benefits of the final product. Using the starter culture could also develop the distinguished characteristics of coffee (Research collaboration with Van Hart company)

Development of Terminalia Chebula Retz. Extract loaded Edible Film for mouth against wound

This study focused on the development of an edible film containing Terminalia chebula Retz extract for the treatment of oral ulcers. The film was designed to dissolve in the mouth without the need for swallowing or chewing, which is suitable for people with canker sores or oral inflammation. Terminalia chebula extract has been shown to have several pharmacological properties, including antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities.

Classifying children's writing skill levels using image processing

Currently, the issue of developmental writing disabilities in children is a matter of great importance for school-age children. Diagnosing whether a child has developmental writing disabilities relies on writing skill assessments, which are administered to those seeking diagnosis and evaluated by medical professionals or experts. However, there are still limitations in the diagnostic process, which depends heavily on expert physicians, leading to a high demand for human resources. To address this, we have developed a method for scoring writing skill assessments using image processing technology, based on existing scoring criteria. Currently, three criteria are used for scoring: writing position, article format, and copying speed. We have also created a web application to make the system more accessible and easier to use.
