The photoelectrochemical detection of salbutamol, which is illicitly used as a lean meat promoter in pigs, is investigated using a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP)-based sensor with a CuO/g-C₃N₄ nanocomposite to enhance detection performance, leveraging nanomaterials and molecular imprinting for high selectivity and sensitivity. This approach offers a promising strategy for the precise and efficient analysis of salbutamol in food samples.
ความปลอดภัยทางด้านอาหารเป็นหนึ่งปัจจัยที่มีผลสำคัญต่อสุขภาพและการดำเนินชีวิตประจำวัน เนื่องมาจากปัญหาการปนเปื้อนของสารเคมีในอาหารซึ่งก่อให้เกิดปัญหาตามมา อาทิเช่น อาการเจ็บป่วยเล็กน้อย ผลข้างเคียงหรือโรคที่เกี่ยวกับทางเดินอาหาร ไปจนถึงทำให้เสียชีวิตได้ สารซาลบูทามอลเป็นสารที่หาซื้อได้ง่ายเนื่องจากเป็นยาที่ถูกใช้กับผู้ที่เป็นโรคหอบหืดหรือโรคที่เกี่ยวกับระบบหายใจเรื้อรัง โดยสารชนิดนี้ถูกใช้ในทางที่ผิด เช่น การโดปของนักกีฬาหรือเพื่อการเร่งเนื้อแดงในสัตว์ได้

This research confirms the potential of bamboo fiber as a sustainable raw material for the textile industry, demonstrating exceptional properties that meet both functional requirements and environmental friendliness. The study focuses on integrating sustainability concepts with material innovation, encompassing fiber property analysis, production process development, and product design. The research objectives were to: 1) develop the properties of bamboo fiber for production; 2) study factors in designing environmentally friendly textile products from bamboo fiber; and 3) forecast future prospects for environmentally friendly textile product design using bamboo fiber. The findings revealed that 60-day-old bamboo possessed optimal properties for fiber separation, with an average fiber size of 5.32 μm, smaller than other natural fibers, resulting in superior moisture absorption and ventilation properties. When blended with recycled polyester fiber in a 30:70 ratio, the yarn exhibited strength and unique tactile characteristics. Although the antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus were low, the fibers demonstrated excellent whiteness and softness. Factor analysis identified four key components in product design: Local Materials, Green Products, Healthy, and Sustainability. Consumer satisfaction evaluation of the prototype products showed high levels of acceptance, with the model explaining 84.7% of consumer satisfaction. The developed production process reduced chemical usage and hazardous waste. Furthermore, utilizing fast-growing bamboo minimized long-term environmental impact, contributing to sustainable development in Thailand's rural communities across economic, environmental, and occupational stability dimensions. The research demonstrates that developing bamboo fiber blended with recycled polyester creates sustainable products that meet consumer demands for health consciousness, local material utilization, and green product promotion. Commercial implementation of these products can enhance economic value and promote environmentally friendly product development in the future.

"Eco Mango Pack: Eco-friendly Packaging for a Sustainable Future" focuses on developing innovative packaging for Nam Dok Mai mangoes, considering fruit safety, shelf life, and environmental impact. The selected materials include a box made from coconut husk, and dry water hyacinth stems have been utilized as internal cushioning to enhance shock resistance. Additionally, dried coffee grounds are incorporated into the packaging to extend the mango's shelf life. The design also takes into account the needs of small-scale farmers, making the packaging suitable for community enterprise production and reducing production costs. This project aims to add value to Thai agricultural products, support the circular economy concept, and promote the use of environmentally friendly materials in the packaging industry.
