The reuse of cooking oil in food preparation leads to oil degradation and the formation of harmful compounds due to oxidation. This study focuses on enhancing the stability of used palm oil through ultrasound-assisted infusion with three varieties of banana blossoms: Kluai Khai, Kluai Hom, and Kluai Nam Wa, which are rich in phenolic compounds and antioxidants. The research investigates the restoration of used palm oil by infusing dried and powdered banana blossoms using ultrasonic treatment at different temperatures and durations. The quality of the infused oil was evaluated through physical (water activity, moisture content, and color), chemical (peroxide value, acid value, and Thio barbituric acid reactive substances), and antioxidant activity (DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP) analyses.

On the path of life since we were born, we have encountered many things in life, differences and various characteristics. However, each factor of each person's life has different responsibilities, dreams, and life context differences. Everyone still has to struggle against obstacles and many burdens in life, shouldering the responsibilities of themselves and their families in order to survive. Living in different ways, with many burdens and dreams, but in real life, how many people can shoulder these burdens to reach their dreams?

The growing interest in antioxidant-rich foods is driven by their potential to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as cancer, cardiovascular conditions, and cellular degeneration. Ginger (Zingiber officinale), banana inflorescence (Musa paradisiaca L.), and roselle (Hibiscus sabdariffa L.) are herbal plants known for their high phenolic content, a crucial component in antioxidant activity. However, the bioactive compounds in these plants are often unstable when exposed to light, temperature, and oxygen, leading to a reduction in their efficacy. This study aims to investigate the optimal ratio of ginger, banana inflorescence, and roselle for encapsulation in liposomes—a technique designed to enhance the stability of bioactive compounds and improve their delivery efficacy. The research evaluates the antioxidant activity of the extracts using DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP methods, alongside total phenolic content (TPC) measurement. The most effective ratio for antioxidant activity will be selected for liposomal encapsulation, employing phospholipids as key structural components. The encapsulation efficiency (EE%) will be calculated to assess the effectiveness of the liposomal delivery system. The findings are expected to identify the optimal combination of ginger, banana inflorescence, and roselle that maximizes antioxidant potency and enhances the stability of bioactive compounds through liposomal encapsulation. This approach offers a promising strategy for developing herbal health supplements that maintain their biological properties over time.
