The innovation of aromatic and cooling inhalers stems from the widespread use of inhalers in modern times. This innovation aims to elevate the product to suit contemporary lifestyles, incorporating Thai identity in a way that resonates with the younger generation. The development focuses on enhancing scents using locally sourced Thai ingredients, adding value to Thai flowers and fruits. Various extraction methods are employed to preserve the fragrance for a longer duration. Additionally, borneol, camphor, and menthol are blended to provide a refreshing and cooling sensation. For the packaging, polymer clay is used to create the container, which is hand-molded and then baked to harden. Instead of a traditional cap, a fabric covering is used to introduce a unique and innovative alternative to conventional inhalers.

Efficient durian orchard development requires integrating knowledge, technology, and innovation from farmers and academics to cope with environmental changes and market demands. The Durian Web-based Learning Hub is an online learning platform developed to serve as a central hub for knowledge transfer from experts and as a space for experience exchange among farmers. Users can access learning resources conveniently and continuously. This platform is part of the Innovation Project for Production and Marketing Information Management Innovation for Enhancing the Quality of Durian Production Entering into Premium Markets, supported by the Program Management Unit for Area-Based Development (PMUA)

Plant-based refers to food or products that are primarily made from plants. It can be divided into two categories: one is food that comes entirely from plants and does not include any animal products, and the other is food that contains small amounts of animal products, such as products that contain milk and eggs in limited quantities, which may also be considered part of the definition of plant-based. Plant-based meat products that closely resemble real meat and attract consumers are considered a relatively new innovation. Although tofu, tempeh, and seitan have been around for a long time, recent discoveries have led to the production of plant-based meat products that provide a sensory experience, making it difficult for consumers to distinguish between real meat and plant-based meat. Furthermore, the development of plant-based food products must prioritize quality and safety to maximize consumer benefits. Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) is a plant-based protein made from soybeans using an extruder. It is used as a primary ingredient in the production of plant-based food products due to several advantages. These include: • High Protein Content: TVP is made from soybeans with the fat extracted, resulting in a high protein content. • Texture: When rehydrated, TVP has a texture that closely resembles meat. • Versatility: TVP has a neutral flavor, allowing it to easily absorb the flavors of various seasonings and sauces. • Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to other protein sources, TVP is relatively inexpensive while providing desirable characteristics. These benefits make TVP an attractive option in the production of plant-based foods. This study focuses on developing TVP into a plant-based crab cake and investigating the shelf life of the product in a tightly sealed container under refrigeration. It also analyzes the hygiene and cleanliness of the production process and how these factors affect the presence or growth of microorganisms that may pose a risk to consumers, referencing the cold food safety standards of Thailand. Finally, recommendations for cleaning operational areas will be provided to establishments as a guideline for developing preliminary food safety procedures in laboratory settings.

Durian is a crucial economic crop of Thailand and one of the most exported agricultural products in the world. However, producing high-quality durian requires maintaining the health of durian trees, ensuring they remain strong and disease-free to optimize productivity and minimize potential damage to both the tree and its fruit. Among the various diseases affecting durian, foliar diseases are among the most common and rapidly spreading, directly impacting tree growth and fruit quality. Therefore, monitoring and controlling leaf diseases is essential for preserving durian quality. This study aims to apply image analysis technology combined with artificial intelligence (AI) to classify diseases in durian leaves, enabling farmers to diagnose diseases independently without relying on experts. The classification includes three categories: healthy leaves (H), leaves infected with anthracnose (A), and leaves affected by algal spot (S). To develop the classification model, convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithms—ResNet-50, GoogleNet, and AlexNet—were employed. Experimental results indicate that the classification accuracy of ResNet-50, GoogleNet, and AlexNet is 93.57%, 93.95%, and 68.69%, respectively.
