Abstract: Banana French Fries This project aimed to study and develop the product Banana French Fries, which is a snack made by frying bananas in a form similar to French fries, in order to add value to bananas and create new choices for consumers. The experiment consisted of selecting suitable banana varieties, developing a coating formula, and testing the taste of samples. The results of the study found that Nam Wa bananas are the most suitable for making banana French fries because they have a firm texture and naturally sweet taste. The best coating formula consists of wheat flour, eggs, and milk, which provide longer crispiness. The taste test found that most consumers gave a very good response and were satisfied with the taste and texture. This project shows that banana French fries are a product with potential to be developed as a healthy snack and can be further developed into a commercial product in the future.

This project presents the development of a "Smart Cat House" using Internet of Things (IoT) and image processing technology to facilitate and enhance the safety of cat care for owners. The infrastructure of the smart cat house consists of an ESP8266 board connected to an ESP32 CAM camera for cat monitoring, and an Arduino board that controls various sensors such as a motion sensor in the litter box, a DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor, an ultrasonic water and food level sensor, including a water supply system for cats, an automatic feeding system, and a ventilation system controlled by a DC FAN that adjusts its operation according to the measured temperature to maintain a suitable environment. There is also an IR sensor to detect the cat's entry into the litter box and an automatic sand changing system with a SERVO MOTOR. All systems are connected and controlled through the Blynk application, which can be used on mobile phones, allowing owners to monitor and care for their pets remotely. Cat detection and identification uses image processing technology from the ESP32 CAM camera in conjunction with YOLO (You Only Look Once), a high-performance object detection algorithm, to detect and distinguish between cats and people. Data from various sensors are sent to the Arduino board to control the operation of various devices in the smart cat house, such as turning lights on and off, automatically changing sand, adjusting temperature and humidity, feeding food and water at scheduled times, or ventilation. The use of a connection system via ESP8266 and the Blynk application makes it easy and convenient to control various devices. Owners can monitor and control the operation of the entire system from anywhere with internet access.

This research aims to study the waste management process of horse manure, the production process of organic fertilizer from horse waste, and opinions on the use of innovative organic fertilizer from horse manure. A mixed-method approach, combining qualitative and quantitative research, is employed. The organic fertilizer is produced from horse manure, which is a waste that incurs disposal costs. Through the fermentation process, it is transformed into an environmentally friendly fertilizer containing essential nutrients beneficial to plants. According to the laboratory analysis of the organic fertilizer conducted by the Soil Science Laboratory, Faculty of Agricultural Technology, King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang, it was found that organic fertilizer from horse manure contains essential nutrients for plant growth, including macronutrients, secondary nutrients, and micronutrients. This reflects the potential of horse waste management, the production process of organic fertilizer from horse manure, the efficiency of the organic fertilizer, and strategies for adding value to expand its commercialization.

This study aims to investigate the co-encapsulation technique of vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 within liposomes to enhance their stability and encapsulation efficiency and evaluate their antioxidant activity and release behavior under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Liposomes were prepared using the High-Speed Homogenization Method, and their characteristics, including particle size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, and antioxidant activity, were analyzed using DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays. The results demonstrated that co-encapsulation significantly improved the stability of vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 compared to single encapsulation. The liposomes exhibited high encapsulation efficiency and maintained strong antioxidant activity. The release profile under simulated gastrointestinal conditions also indicated a sustained and controlled release. These findings highlight the potential of the co-encapsulation technique in enhancing the efficacy of functional bioactive compounds, making it applicable to the food and nutraceutical industries.
