Detection of Storage Age Adulteration in Khao Dawk Mali 105 Rice using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Detection of Storage Age Adulteration in Khao Dawk Mali 105 Rice  using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

Abstract

This research aims to investigate the adulteration of Khao Dawk Mali 105 rice based on storage age using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) with Fourier Transform Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-NIR) in the wavenumber range of 12,500 – 4,000 cm-1 (800 – 2,500 nm). Storage duration significantly impacts the quality of cooked rice. This research is divided into two parts: 1) to investigate the feasibility of separating rice according to storage age (1, 2, and 3 years) using the best model created by an Ensemble method combined with Second Derivative, which achieved an accuracy of 96.3%. 2) To investigate adulteration based on storage age by adulterating at 0% (all 2- and 3-year-old rice), 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, and 100% (all 1-year-old rice). The best model was created using Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) combined with Smoothing + Multiplicative Scatter Correction (MSC), with coefficients of determination (r²), root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP), bias, and prediction ability (RPD) values of 0.92, 8.6%, 0.9%, and 3.6 respectively. This demonstrates that the adulteration model can be applied to separate rice by storage age (1, 2, and 3 years). Additionally, the color values of rice with different storage ages show differences in L* and b* values.

Objective

โรงงานผู้ผลิตข้าวพบปัญหาการปลอมปนของข้าวสารที่มีอายุการเก็บรักษาต่างกัน โดยทั่วไปการคัดแยกการปลอมปนจะใช้วิธีมาตรฐานโดยการหุงข้าว จากนั้นนำข้าวหุงสุกไปวัดเนื้อสัมผัสเพื่อแยกอายุของข้าว ซึ่งใช้เวลาและเป็นการทำลายตัวอย่างและเกิดความล่าช้าในการตรวจสอบคุณภาพข้าวสาร งานวิจัยนี้ใช้เทคนิคเนียร์อินฟราเรดสเปกโทรสโกปี (Near-Infrared Spectroscopy, NIRS) ในการตรวจสอบการปลอมปนของข้าวสารพันธุ์ขาวดอกมะลิ 105 (KDML 105) ที่อายุการเก็บรักษาต่างกันเพื่อแก้ไขปัญหาดังกล่าว

This conceptual model, inspired by the Rose Window in Gothic architecture, embodies intricate geometric patterns that reflect divine harmony and balance. Its symmetrical structure and the interplay of light passing through stained glass create a sense of movement, enhancing the sacred and mystical atmosphere. The composition evokes a celestial presence, like a window to heaven.

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.

This project aims to study the load transfer in timber building structures by analyzing weight distribution across key structural components such as beams, columns, and floors, as well as the load-bearing behavior of wood under different conditions. The research incorporates structural calculations and modeling to examine load transfer patterns. Additionally, it enhances skills in design, analysis, and teamwork, providing practical knowledge applicable to real-world construction projects.
