Abstract: Banana French Fries This project aimed to study and develop the product Banana French Fries, which is a snack made by frying bananas in a form similar to French fries, in order to add value to bananas and create new choices for consumers. The experiment consisted of selecting suitable banana varieties, developing a coating formula, and testing the taste of samples. The results of the study found that Nam Wa bananas are the most suitable for making banana French fries because they have a firm texture and naturally sweet taste. The best coating formula consists of wheat flour, eggs, and milk, which provide longer crispiness. The taste test found that most consumers gave a very good response and were satisfied with the taste and texture. This project shows that banana French fries are a product with potential to be developed as a healthy snack and can be further developed into a commercial product in the future.

This project explores the therapeutic potential of binaural beats within a 3D soundscape environment, focusing on the effects of left-right (L-R) beating sound positioning. Using Dolby Atmos technology to create immersive auditory experiences, the research aims to investigate how varying spatial beating sound placements in binaural beat therapy influence mental and emotional healing. Binaural beats, a form of auditory brainwave entrainment, have been shown to promote relaxation, reduce anxiety, and enhance cognitive performance. However, there has been limited exploration of how spatial sound technologies, like Dolby Atmos, can enhance the efficacy of these therapies. This study examines how different beating L-R configurations in a 3D soundscape impact the listener’s perception and therapeutic outcomes. Participants will experience binaural beat sessions in various beating L-R orientations, and physiological and psychological measures, such as heart rate variability and self-reported relaxation levels, will be assessed. The results are expected to provide new insights into the interaction between spatial audio environments and sound-based therapies, potentially improving sound therapy practices by leveraging advanced audio technologies.

This research aims to develop plant-based Thai traditional sausage(Sai oua) using young jackfruit as the main raw material. To be an alternative to replace meat by studying the development of formula, changes in physical and physical chemistry during the preservation of the product, young jackfruit has dominant properties of meat-like fibres and can absorb the smell and taste of spices well. The results of the study found that young jackfruit that have been boiled at 100 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes have the fibre closest to cooked chicken. In addition, the study of changes during storage at different temperatures found that the colour and Water Activity (Aw) have changed slightly. While the pH value (pH) decreased and the value of Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (T-BARS) increased. In terms of texture, it was found that the toughness increased and the elasticity decreased. Compared to the control formula, this study suggests that young jackfruit is a suitable raw material for the production of fillings from plants.

This research focuses on the development of mango powder using the foam-mat drying method, which is an effective technique for preserving the quality of fruit and vegetable products. Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) was used as a foaming agent. The study evaluated the effects of HPMC on the chemical and physical properties, antioxidant activity, and shelf life of mango powder. The findings indicated that HPMC plays a crucial role in improving the foam stability before drying and enhancing the quality of the dried powder. This research provides a valuable approach to adding value to substandard mango yields and reducing agricultural waste. It also contributes to the development of high-nutritional processed food products with extended shelf life.

The study investigated the extraction of astaxanthin-rich oil from shrimp waste biomass, a valuable byproduct rich in functional lipids and proteins. Wet rendering has long been an inexpensive method to extract oil, however the high temperatures and long cooking times negatively affect the amount of astaxanthin. On the other hand, the study looked into employing deep eutectic solvent as a green solvent and combining a wet rendering process with high-shear homogenization and high-frequency ultrasound-assisted extractions. DES-UAE at 60% amplitude and wet rendering at 60 °C were found to be the ideal conditions, as were DES-HAE at 13,000 rpm and wet rendering at 60 °C. With a notable increase in oil yields of 16.80% and 20.12%, respectively, and improved oil quality (lower acid and peroxide values) in comparison to the conventional wet rendering, experimental validation validated the effectiveness of the DES-HAE and DES-UAE procedures. DES-UAE notably raised the amount of astaxanthin. This study demonstrates that DES-HAE and DES-UAE are quicker, lower-temperature substitutes for obtaining premium, astaxanthin-rich shrimp oil, resulting in more effective use of this priceless byproduct.

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.

Plant-based refers to food or products that are primarily made from plants. It can be divided into two categories: one is food that comes entirely from plants and does not include any animal products, and the other is food that contains small amounts of animal products, such as products that contain milk and eggs in limited quantities, which may also be considered part of the definition of plant-based. Plant-based meat products that closely resemble real meat and attract consumers are considered a relatively new innovation. Although tofu, tempeh, and seitan have been around for a long time, recent discoveries have led to the production of plant-based meat products that provide a sensory experience, making it difficult for consumers to distinguish between real meat and plant-based meat. Furthermore, the development of plant-based food products must prioritize quality and safety to maximize consumer benefits. Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) is a plant-based protein made from soybeans using an extruder. It is used as a primary ingredient in the production of plant-based food products due to several advantages. These include: • High Protein Content: TVP is made from soybeans with the fat extracted, resulting in a high protein content. • Texture: When rehydrated, TVP has a texture that closely resembles meat. • Versatility: TVP has a neutral flavor, allowing it to easily absorb the flavors of various seasonings and sauces. • Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to other protein sources, TVP is relatively inexpensive while providing desirable characteristics. These benefits make TVP an attractive option in the production of plant-based foods. This study focuses on developing TVP into a plant-based crab cake and investigating the shelf life of the product in a tightly sealed container under refrigeration. It also analyzes the hygiene and cleanliness of the production process and how these factors affect the presence or growth of microorganisms that may pose a risk to consumers, referencing the cold food safety standards of Thailand. Finally, recommendations for cleaning operational areas will be provided to establishments as a guideline for developing preliminary food safety procedures in laboratory settings.
