Niyom Thai

Niyom Thai

Abstract

"Niyom Thai" represents health-centric footwear adorned with traditional Thai patterns, embodying an innovative approach to sustainable development tailored to the current needs of local communities. These shoes utilize natural materials to mitigate fatigue and integrate safety technologies, including location tracking via a mobile application and heart rate monitoring. This addresses the aspects of convenience and well-being in both daily life and travel

Optimizing γ -aminobutyric acid (GABA) Production in Pineapple Juice Fermentation.

This research aims to optimize the production process of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in fermented pineapple juice using probiotics and acetic acid bacteria (AAB), which are microorganisms with the potential to enhance GABA levels. This process has been developed to improve the nutritional value of fermented pineapple juice and to increase the economic value of Thai pineapples, which have long suffered from low market prices. This study focuses on determining the optimal conditions for GABA production by examining factors such as sugar content, pH levels, fermentation duration, and L-glutamate concentration, as well as the co-cultivation of probiotics and acetic acid bacteria. The experiments are conducted using controlled fermentation techniques, and the bioactive components of the fermented juice are analyzed with advanced instruments such as HPLC and GC-MS. The findings of this research are expected to contribute to the development of formulations and production processes for a high-GABA pineapple-based functional beverage. This product could offer health benefits such as stress reduction, cognitive function enhancement, and relaxation while also strengthening the potential of Thailand’s fermented food and beverage industry.

Medical Delivery Drone

Medical Delivery Drone

One of the most important aspects of responding to a medical case is the response time. In general, most fatalities are due to the patient not being able to reach the hands of the doctor in time. This also includes the arrival of medical equipment to the scene. The human brain will start to degrade in function after 3 minutes of oxygen starvation which conventional road transportation method first responders presently use is usually unable to reach the site in this golden 3 minutes, resulting in fatalities during transport or before the arrival of first responders at the scene. Therefore, medical equipment transport by fully autonomous aircraft is explored. This is done through drone deliveries which is much quicker than road methods as the equipment could be flown straight to the site as it is not affected by traffic, road conditions, and navigation. In this project, we will explore an aerial delivery system for medical equipment such as Automatic External Defibrillators (AEDs), First aid equipment, and other small requested medical devices. This will be done through a DJI drone platform and their SDK application. The main goal for this project is to decrease the response time by using an autonomous aerial drone to deliver medical equipment.

Astaxanthin-rich Oil Extracted with Ultrasound Assisted-Natural Deep Eutectic Solvent from the Byproduct of Black Tiger Shrimp (Panaeus monodon).

The study investigated the extraction of astaxanthin-rich oil from shrimp waste biomass, a valuable byproduct rich in functional lipids and proteins. Wet rendering has long been an inexpensive method to extract oil, however the high temperatures and long cooking times negatively affect the amount of astaxanthin. On the other hand, the study looked into employing deep eutectic solvent as a green solvent and combining a wet rendering process with high-shear homogenization and high-frequency ultrasound-assisted extractions. DES-UAE at 60% amplitude and wet rendering at 60 °C were found to be the ideal conditions, as were DES-HAE at 13,000 rpm and wet rendering at 60 °C. With a notable increase in oil yields of 16.80% and 20.12%, respectively, and improved oil quality (lower acid and peroxide values) in comparison to the conventional wet rendering, experimental validation validated the effectiveness of the DES-HAE and DES-UAE procedures. DES-UAE notably raised the amount of astaxanthin. This study demonstrates that DES-HAE and DES-UAE are quicker, lower-temperature substitutes for obtaining premium, astaxanthin-rich shrimp oil, resulting in more effective use of this priceless byproduct.
