This project aims to develop seafood dipping sauce and Jaew sauce in solid cube form to address the limitations of liquid sauces, which can be difficult to carry and prone to spillage, as well as powdered sauces, which may lose their texture and authentic flavor. The research and development process focuses on utilizing distinct ingredients and innovative production techniques to enhance the quality and functionality of the product. The primary objective of this project is to introduce an innovative solution that improves the convenience of consumption and transportation while preserving the original taste and quality of traditional dipping sauces. The expected outcome is a novel dipping sauce product in solid cube form that is easy to carry, minimizes the risk of spillage, and holds potential for commercial development in the food industry.

The innovation of the vertical aquaponics system for rearing golden apple snails integrating with vegetable cultivation by using substrates to water treatment. The system aims to maximize the use of vertical space, save water, and produce safe vegetables for consumption or commercial purposes, and to support living things. The golden apple snail excretes wastes/leftover food scraps that are filtered on the substrates used for water treatment. Meanwhile, natural bacteria help change these wastes into nutrients that plants can use. Therefore, the system is environmentally friendly.

This study aims to develop alginate-based hydrogels reinforced with carrageenan and gellan gum as composite materials for oral drug delivery. Alginate, a naturally derived polymer from brown algae, forms a gel upon exposure to cations such as calcium ions, enhancing the hydrogel’s structural integrity. Carrageenan and gellan gum, both polysaccharides, further improve stability and encapsulation efficiency. This research investigates the physical properties, mechanical strength, encapsulation capacity, and swelling behavior of hydrogel beads under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. The findings are expected to demonstrate that incorporating carrageenan and gellan gum enhances the durability and stability of hydrogel beads while enabling controlled release of active compounds in the gastrointestinal tract. These advanced hydrogel beads hold significant potential for applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries as effective oral delivery systems for bioactive substances.

Study on Parasites in Blackchin Tilapia and Value-Added Processing Parasites play a crucial role in affecting fish health and the balance of marine ecosystems. The study of parasites in fish is essential for assessing fish population status and their impact on the ecosystem. This research focuses on a preliminary survey of parasites in Blackchin Tilapia (Sarotherodon melanotheron) found in the waters of Chumphon Province to determine whether this species carries parasitic infections. The findings will provide valuable insights for managing marine resources and developing strategies for processing Blackchin Tilapia into food products to help control its population in the ecosystem. One of the value-added processing approaches for Blackchin Tilapia is the "Nai Hoi Hua Fu" product. This product involves deep-frying the fish to achieve a crispy and fluffy texture before mixing it with mango salad to enhance its flavor and make it more appealing. This processing method not only adds value to the fish but also serves as a practical solution for managing the Blackchin Tilapia population, which may impact the ecosystem. The study results indicate that no parasitic infections were found in either the internal or external organs of the sampled fish, suggesting that the marine environment in the study area is favorable for fish health. However, continuous research is recommended to monitor long-term ecological changes and evaluate the impact of Blackchin Tilapia on ecosystem balance to ensure sustainable resource management.
