The development of a fruit spoilage detection system originates from the need to reduce agricultural product losses, a global issue affecting both the agricultural and food distribution industries. Spoiled fruit can negatively impact product quality and result in significant economic losses. The primary goal of this system is to assist in screening and removing unsuitable fruit from the supply chain, thereby preserving product quality and meeting consumer demands for fresh produce. The system was designed to simulate the sorting process by utilizing images as a key factor in detecting spoiled fruit. Experimental results demonstrated high efficiency and rapid prediction capabilities, highlighting the system’s potential for practical applications.
ระบบตรวจจับผลไม้เน่ามีที่มาจากความต้องการในการลดการสูญเสียผลผลิตทางการเกษตร ซึ่งเป็นปัญหาที่เกิดขึ้นทั่วโลกโดยเฉพาะในอุตสาหกรรมการเกษตรและการจัดจําหน่ายอาหาร ผลไม้ที่เน่าเสียจะส่งผลกระทบต่อคุณภาพของผลิตภัณฑ์และสามารถก่อให้เกิดความสูญเสียทางเศรษฐกิจได้อย่างมาก การพัฒนาระบบตรวจจับผลไม้เน่าจึงมีเป้าหมายเพื่อช่วยในการคัดกรองและแยกผลไม้ที่ไม่เหมาะสมออกจากกระบวนการจัดส่ง เพื่อรักษาคุณภาพของสินค้าและตอบสนองต่อความต้องการของผู้บริโภคที่ต้องการผลไม้สดใหม่

This research focuses on the design and development of a prototype Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) system for monitoring and controlling irrigation using weather information. The system consists of four main components: 1) Weather Station – This component includes various sensors such as air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and sunlight duration, among others, to collect real-time weather data. 2) Controller Unit – This unit is equipped with machine learning algorithms or models to estimate the reference evapotranspiration (ETo) and calculate the plant’s water requirement by integrating the crop coefficient (Kc) with other plant-related data. This enables the system to determine the optimal irrigation amount based on plant needs automatically. 3) User Interface (UI) and Display – This section allows farmers or users to input relevant information, such as plant type, soil type, irrigation system type, number of water emitters, planting distance, and growth stages. It also provides a display for monitoring and interaction with the system. 4) Irrigation Unit – This component is responsible for controlling the water supply and managing the irrigation emitters to ensure efficient water distribution based on the calculated requirements.

This study aimed to develop a formula and production process for snacks made from germinated brown rice flour and banana flour using the extrusion process. The results indicated that both germinated brown rice flour and banana flour could be effectively used as the main raw materials for snack production via extrusion. The proportion of flour in the formula and production conditions, such as moisture content of the raw materials, barrel temperature, and screw speed, significantly influenced the nutritional value, bioactive compound levels, and antioxidant activity of the final products.

Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is a key pathogen in periodontal disease, damaging periodontal ligaments and alveolar bone through biofilm formation. D-LL-31, an engineered antimicrobial peptide, exhibits superior biofilm-killing ability compared to conventional treatments, while DNase I enhances its efficacy by disrupting the biofilm matrix. This study evaluated the combined effects of D-LL-31 and DNase I on A. actinomycetemcomitans biofilms. Results showed that D-LL-31 effectively eradicated biofilms, and its combination with DNase I further enhanced biofilm disruption without cytotoxicity to gingival epithelial cells. The D-LL-31 and DNase I combination shows potential for development as a mouthwash to improve oral health and combat periodontal disease.
