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.

Spent coffee grounds (SCG) are a byproduct of the coffee brewing process, and their quantity continues to increase due to the growing global coffee consumption. SCG contain beneficial compounds such as polysaccharides, dietary fibers, and antioxidants, which can be utilized in various applications, including prebiotic extraction. This study focuses on extracting prebiotics from SCG using acid hydrolysis and enzymatic hydrolysis methods to evaluate their potential in promoting the growth of beneficial gut microorganisms. The expected results of this research include adding value to coffee industry waste, reducing organic waste, and providing a sustainable approach to developing prebiotic products for use in the food and health industries. Furthermore, this study aligns with sustainable resource utilization and environmentally friendly practices.

The consumption of plant-based products has been gaining popularity as consumers become more health-conscious and aware of environmental impacts. The food industry has been developing meat analogs with properties similar to conventional meat. This study investigates the chemical and physical properties of chickpea-based meat analog burgers and hybrid burgers containing both chickpeas and pork, using the sous-vide cooking method. This technique helps maintain food quality in terms of texture, moisture retention, and nutritional value. The experiment examined various properties of both types of burgers, including cooking loss, water holding capacity, shear force, pH value, and color analysis. Additionally, sensory evaluation was conducted to assess taste, texture, and overall consumer preference. The findings will provide insights into the optimal sous-vide conditions for producing plant-based and hybrid burgers with desirable quality characteristics that meet the needs of health-conscious consumers. This study serves as a valuable guideline for the food industry in developing high-nutritional-value alternative protein products while reducing meat consumption. By incorporating plant-based ingredients, it helps minimize environmental impact and promotes sustainability in food production. The research is significant in both food science and the development of healthier, competitive food products for the future market.
