With the urgent need for rapid screening of Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) due to its association with increased liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma cases from contaminated agricultural foods, we propose a novel electrochemical aptasensor. This aptasensor is based on trimetallic nanoparticles AuPt-Ru supported by reduced graphene oxide (AuPt-Ru/RGO) modified on a low-cost and disposable goldleaf electrode (GLEAuPt-Ru/RGO) for detection of AFB1. The trimetallic nanoparticle AuPt-Ru was synthesized using an ultrasonic-driven chemical reduction method. The synthesized AuPt-Ru exhibited a waxberry-like appearance, with AuPt core-shell structure and ruthenium dispersed over the particles. The average particle size was 57.35 ± 8.24 nm. The AuPt-Ru was integrated into RGO sheets (inner diameter of 0.5 to 1.6 µm) in order to enhance electron transfer efficiency and increase the specific immobilizing surface area of the thiol-5’-terminated modified aptamer (Apt) to target AFB1. With a large electrochemical surface area and low electrochemical impedance, GLEAuPt-Ru/RGO displays ultra-high sensitivity for AFB1 detection. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurements revealed a linear range for AFB1 detection range from 0.3 to 30.0 pg mL-1 (R2 = 0.9972), with a limit of detection (LOD, S/N = 3) and a limit of quantification (LOQ, S/N = 10) of 0.009 pg mL-1 and 0.031 pg mL-1, respectively. The developed aptasensor also demonstrated excellent accuracy in real agricultural products, including dried red chili, garlic, peanut, pepper, and Thai jasmine rice, achieving recovery rates between 94.6 and 107.9%. The fabricated aptamer-based GLEAuPt-Ru/RGO performance is comparable to that of a modified commercial electrode, which has great potential application prospects for detecting AFB1 in agricultural products.

This project is a carbon safe haven of Bangkok, aspiring to be the prototypal gateway of the future's carbon net zero ambitions. The project aims to answer the fundamental "flaw" of the existing urban fabric, still being extremely inefficient and highly polluting. Conversely, Carbon Oasis would not only create its own energy, but look to provide its excess energy and water surplus' back to the city and its surroundings. Taking parts of the existing city and implementing new concepts to inspire a change in the urban fabric and its people.

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.
