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)

The objective of this research is to utilize waste slag in industrial applications and help mitigate flooding, water accumulation, and ponding issues. Currently, slag from the steel smelting or refining process is commonly used as a component in construction materials, such as road surfaces. However, slag has properties that make it difficult for water to permeate, leading to poor drainage and increased flooding problems. This study focuses on improving the properties of pavement materials to enhance their strength and water permeability. This can be achieved through physical structural modifications or the addition of chemical agents such as HPMC, which increases void spaces to facilitate water absorption and drainage according to required standards. The utilization of waste slag not only helps reduce production costs and improve material performance but also minimizes environmental impacts and promotes the sustainable use of resources.

Diabetes is a significant global health issue, particularly due to complications related to diabetic wounds. Studies indicate that approximately 15-25% of diabetic patients develop foot ulcers, with more than 50% of severe cases leading to amputation. This results in a substantial decline in the quality of life for patients. Current treatments for diabetic wounds face challenges such as antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections and delayed wound healing, highlighting the need for innovative solutions to accelerate the healing process and reduce the risk of limb loss. Cotylelobium lanceolatum Craib, a medicinal plant long utilized in traditional Thai medicine, is known for its anti-inflammatory and wound-healing properties. This study focuses on developing an extract from Cotylelobium lanceolatum Craib in the form of nano silver (Nano Silver) to enhance the effectiveness of diabetic wound treatment. Nano silver technology enables deeper penetration into the skin, provides potent antibacterial activity, and promotes wound healing by reducing inflammation and stimulating tissue regeneration. The development of nano silver derived from Cotylelobium lanceolatum Craib extract is expected to help reduce chronic wounds in diabetic patients, lower the risk of infection, and decrease the incidence of limb amputation and mortality associated with diabetic wound complications. This research represents a significant step toward creating a safer and more effective treatment alternative for diabetic wound care.
