This research aimed to isolate and culture four strains of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) isolated from fermented foods. The antimicrobial activity of the lactic acid bacteria was studied using the agar spot method and the antibiotic resistance properties of the lactic acid bacteria were studied using the agar overlay diffusion method. The results showed that each strain of lactic acid bacteria had different levels of antimicrobial activity and antibiotic resistance, which are safety properties of probiotic microorganisms.

In Thailand, the quantity of old tires has been increasing annually, posing a significant environmental challenge due to their non-biodegradable material. However, old tires contain an internal porous structure, which suggests their potential application as sound-absorbing materials. Porosity is a key characteristic that enables materials to trap sound waves, making them effective for noise reduction. Therefore, this study aims to investigate and develop sound-absorbing materials from old tire rubber powder. The methodology involved mixing old tire powder with fresh latex at a ratio of 1:2, followed by drying at a temperature of 120°C for four hours. Subsequently, the physical properties influencing sound absorption, including density, porosity, and water absorption, were analyzed. The results indicated that the sound-absorbing material produced from old tire rubber powder showed a density of 0.96 g/cm³, a porosity value of 0.45, and a water absorption of 11.03%. Therefore, the findings suggest that old tire rubber powder has the potential to be effectively utilized as a sound-absorbing material.

This research aimed to (1) analyze the problems and needs in designing labels for catfish strip products of the Lam Sai Phatthana Community Enterprise Group, (2) develop the labels for catfish strip products, and (3) evaluate the satisfaction levels of consumers and community group members with the developed labels. The study involved 17 members of the community enterprise group and 151 consumers. Research methods included in-depth interviews and questionnaires to gather satisfaction data. The results showed that the newly developed product labels were effective in attracting attention and building trust in the product. The satisfaction levels among the Lam Sai Phatthana Community Enterprise Group members and consumers were high (x ̅= 4.17 and 3.75, respectively).

Rice is a salt-sensitive crop. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of salinity at flowering stage on physiological traits and yield of landrace rice. The experiment design was 4*10 Factorial in RCBD with 4 replications. Factor A was four salinity levels: control, 6, 12 and 16 dS/m; Factor B was 10 rice varieties. Data were collected on physiological traits and grain yield. The results showed that increasing salinity level decreased rice yield. The highest yield reduction was found when the rice received salt stress at 16 dS/m. In addition, rice varieties showed different yield performance when exposed to salt stress. In this found that Hom Yai variety had the lowest yield reduction when grown at 16 dS/m salinity level and did not differ from salt tolerant check variety.
