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

Given the fact that the equity market contributes a significant amount to Thai economy and increasing participants and interest by Thai companies, these facts inspire and motivate us to establish a study to analyze whether the stock market can indeed be an active booster of company performances and characteristics of companies which will be beneficial from being in the stock market. These results can support higher listing interest from companies, provide actionable ideas to companies aiming to improve their performance in the competitive arena, and suggest improvements for the stock market to further establish a stronger capital market penetration and foundation in Thailand. The main hypothesis driving this project is to examine whether “aging in the market” contributes to measurable improvements in a company’s performance. Specifically, we seek to understand if the presence of Thai companies in the Stock Exchange of Thailand correlates with enhanced operational outcomes, thereby providing insights into the true benefits of public listing on long-term performance.

The Ginbanirose project aims to develop herbal extracts for alleviating menstrual pain using key ingredients: roselle, banana inflorescence, and ginger. These ingredients contain bioactive compounds with anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and pain-relieving properties. The extracts are enhanced through liposome encapsulation technology, which improves absorption and stability. The production process involves herbal extraction, freeze-drying, and liposome formulation using lecithin and stabilizers. Experimental results demonstrate high phenolic content and antioxidant activity via the DPPH method. Ginbanirose addresses women’s quality of life concerns while offering significant business opportunities in the rapidly growing herbal market, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region.

The extreme weathers according to PM 2.5 is a global problem with out any borders. This pollutant can directly attack human health. The objective of the study was aimed to develop medicinal plant essential oil emulsions in order to use to decrease PM 2.5 based on chemical characterization of water-soluble anions and cations. A mount of 31 medicinal plant essential oil emulsions were prepared and then initially careened and tested for their efficiency in reducing PM 2.5 under test chamber by spraying method. It was found that spraying for 1 hr with kaffir lime essential oil emulsion at 0.025% concentration could reduce PM 2.5 obtained from engine exhaust pipe effectively when PM 2.5 of 24.7 µg/m3 was detected within 6 hrs, followed by kaffir lime essential oil emulsion at 0.05% and Eucalyptus essential oil emulsion at 0.05% and 0.025% concentration resulting in 27.3, 30.0 and 95.3 µg/m3, respectively. Whereas, water (blank) and control group (water and carboxymethylcellulose, CMC 0.2%) showed high revels of PM 2.5 with 126.4 and 157.3 µg/m3, respectively. This kaffir lime essential oil emulsion at 0.025% concentration showed 3-6 time decline of PM 2.5 upward 2 hrs compared with control group. Field experiment was performed at 3 Bangkok parks, namely, Suantaweewanarom, Suanbankharepirom and Suanthonbureerom. There were many factors affecting the decline of PM 2.5 caused by this essential oil emulsion, particularly, the windy as well as temperature and humidity. PM 2.5 level tended to be decreased after the beginning of spraying. In general, PM 2.5 levels appeared at those 3 parks were decreased rapidly within 1 hr as by average of 21.8 (7.7-27.3) µg/m3, Whereas, decline of only 6.4 (5.0-8.0) µg/m3 was observed in control (water). Incase of calm wind, (10-20 km/hr) this plant essential oil emulsion could even reduce PM 2.5 at 37.0-44.0 µg/m3 and reached to 13.5-16.5 µg/m3 within 3 hrs. As high level of PM 2.5 as 98.0-101.0 µg/m3 , it could reduce PM 2.5 to be an average of 23.0-26.5 µg/m3 within 3 hrs, Whereas, the use of water performed low capacity of PM 2.5 reduction found with only 31.0-40.0 µg/m3. However, windy condition (15-35 km/hr), the efficacy of this essential oil emulsion seem to be lower but tended to work better than using water alone
