Study on the Production Process and Shelf-Life Preservation of Plant-Based Crab Cake under Refrigerated Conditions (Lab Scale)

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.

Smart system for tracking raising rate of crickets using infrared camera

In raising crickets for meat consumption, the growth rate and growth period of crickets are important data used to identify the number of crickets per breeding area at each age. Therefore, the researcher has an idea to create a system for monitoring the growth rate of crickets in a closed system using an infrared camera combined with computer image processing to study the growth and identify the growth period of crickets at each age in order to obtain knowledge that can be disseminated to farmers to improve the breeding process for maximum efficiency.

Selection of landrace rice varieties resistant to saline soil

Rice is a salt-sensitive crop. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of salinity at flowering stage on physiological traits and yield of landrace rice. The experiment design was 4*10 Factorial in RCBD with 4 replications. Factor A was four salinity levels: control, 6, 12 and 16 dS/m; Factor B was 10 rice varieties. Data were collected on physiological traits and grain yield. The results showed that increasing salinity level decreased rice yield. The highest yield reduction was found when the rice received salt stress at 16 dS/m. In addition, rice varieties showed different yield performance when exposed to salt stress. In this found that Hom Yai variety had the lowest yield reduction when grown at 16 dS/m salinity level and did not differ from salt tolerant check variety.
