A Photographic series that expresses the abstract states of myself, towards the question of existence that results from being surrounded by expectations of both surrender and freedom of expression, this series focuses on my own subjectivities in order to bring back memories of almost forgotten feelings and make them clear once more.
การที่เติบโตมาจากครอบครัวที่คาดหวังในตัวเรา ที่สมาชิกคาดหวังในตัวเราไม่เหมือนกัน ถ้าเราทำแบบใดแบบหนึ่งที่คนใดคนหนึ่งต้องการอีกคนจะไม่พอใจ จนเราเกิดสงสัยว่าเราต้องเป็นแบบไหน เมื่อเข้ามาอยู่ในสังคมใหม่ทำให้เราตั้งคำถามกับตนเองเมื่อเข้าหาผู้คนว่าเราต้องเป็นไปแบบที่เขาต้องการหรือเปล่าเราถึงจะเข้าถึงเขาได้ ทำให้เราสับสนกับตัวเองและต้องสร้างตัวตนใหม่ไปตามที่คนคนนั้นพอใจ จนเราเองเริ่มเกิดคำถามว่าจริงๆแล้วตัวตนของเราจริงๆเป็นแบบไหน

Most rice is consumed as cooked, milled rice, but a small portion is also ground into flour or separated into a starch fraction and used by the food industry as a gluten-free ingredient. This study aims to find out if different types of rice flour and starch, such as white and colored rice, could be used in industry. This study employs green modification techniques to slow down the digestion process by combining polyphenols with starch. Our initial study found that the raw colored rice has a lower glycemic index than other types of rice, such as brown or white rice. Another study that looked at how the quality of colored rice flour was changed by different methods also discovered that out of the six green methods (annealing, heat moisture treatment, ultrasound, pregelatinization, wet-microwave, and dry-microwave). It found that ultrasound improved the polyphenol bioaccessibility in the rice flour and reduced the digestion rate. The pregelatinization process led to the flour having high solubility and an estimated glycemic index. Different techniques affected the flour/starch quality in different ways. Therefore, for further industrial application, it could also be easier to select the method for food product based on their required techno-functional quality of flour/starch. In addition to the modification techniques, this study showed that the high bioaccessible polyphenol content and high polyphenol content in rice greatly slowed down the rate of digestion. This study also open for further exploring the possibility of using high polyphenol agricultural waste to modify starch and flour in a sustainable manner.

Air pollution, particularly PM2.5, is a major environmental and public health concern in Bangkok. Instead of predicting PM2.5 levels, this project aims to identify the most significant factors influencing PM2.5 concentration. By analyzing historical air quality, weather, and other environmental data, we will determine which variables—such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, or other pollutants—have the greatest impact on PM2.5 fluctuations.

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.
