This project aims to propose a design for a red offal processing room in a pork processing plant that processes 500 pigs per day or 80 pigs per hour. Each pig weighs approximately 105 kilograms, with 3.47% of the weight consisting of red offal. The process involves separating liver, gall bladder, heart, lungs, spleen, and kidneys as required. These parts are then chilled in cold water to reduce their temperature to below 7°C before packaging and sealing. Sorting is based on the number of pieces and weight, depending on the type of product. The processing times of sorting chilling and packaging vary depending on the product's type and size. The design was developed using data collected from the current production line and referenced standards. The room layout was planned using Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) principles to analyze activity relationships within the room and define functional areas. Equipment sizes and the required number of operators were calculated to ensure optimal use of space. The red offal processing room was designed with an area of 56 square meters. After the layout design was completed, a 3D model was created using SketchUp 2024, and the workflow and operations were simulated and analyzed using Flexsim 2024

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 study aims to investigate the co-encapsulation technique of vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 within liposomes to enhance their stability and encapsulation efficiency and evaluate their antioxidant activity and release behavior under simulated gastrointestinal conditions. Liposomes were prepared using the High-Speed Homogenization Method, and their characteristics, including particle size, zeta potential, encapsulation efficiency, and antioxidant activity, were analyzed using DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assays. The results demonstrated that co-encapsulation significantly improved the stability of vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 compared to single encapsulation. The liposomes exhibited high encapsulation efficiency and maintained strong antioxidant activity. The release profile under simulated gastrointestinal conditions also indicated a sustained and controlled release. These findings highlight the potential of the co-encapsulation technique in enhancing the efficacy of functional bioactive compounds, making it applicable to the food and nutraceutical industries.
