Item type:Publication, Application of baby corn husk as a biological sustainable feedstock for the production of cellulase and xylanase by Lentinus squarrosulus Mont.(2023-02-01) ;Vichitraka, Asanee; ;Tantratian, Sumate; In an effort to use baby corn husk (BCH) as a sustainable feedstock for cellulase and xylanase production by the Lentinus squarrosulus Mont. isolate LS-YA (LSM-LS-YA), a suitable pretreatment method and fermentation strategies were developed. BCH pretreated with 1 M sodium hydroxide for 90 min, an alkaline pretreatment, exemplified an appropriate pretreatment method. In a 10-L external Venturi injector bioreactor, the highest cellulase and xylanase production was 4.12 ± 0.36 unit/mL and 6.15 ± 0.36 unit/mL, respectively, when 1 g/L diammonium hydrogen phosphate was used as the nitrogen source and the aeration rate was controlled at 0.2 vvm. This study provides an informative perspective on the production of cellulase and xylanase from agricultural lignocellulosic materials, which could reduce agricultural waste while supporting a zero-waste circular economy, and this fermentation process would be applicable to larger-scale production. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Antimicrobial film from jackfruit waste powder incorporating clove and ginger essential oils and its application in food packaging(2026-06-01) ;Nimitr, Ronakit ;Eamsiriluck, Phutthipong ;Purba, Daniel Tua; Krusong, WarawutBioactive composite films were developed utilizing a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and jackfruit waste powder (JK PW) matrix, functionalized with either ginger (JK PW–GEO) or clove essential oil (JK PW–CEO). Structural characterization indicated that the essential oils were chemically anchored to the polymer matrix via intermolecular hydrogen bonding, facilitating the formation of a cohesive micro-composite architecture. These chemical interactions significantly enhanced thermal stability; notably, JK PW–GEO films exhibited superior thermal resistance (limiting mass loss to 9 % within the 180–260 °C range) compared to JK PW–CEO films (∼14 % loss). This stability is attributed to the robust retention of non-volatile gingerols within the hydrogen-bonded network, as confirmed by HS-GC–MS/MS analysis. Regarding functional bioactivity, distinct performance profiles were observed: JK PW–CEO films demonstrated exceptional antioxidant capacity (334.75 mg GAE/g; 90.62 % DPPH radical scavenging), whereas JK PW–GEO films exhibited broader antimicrobial efficacy, particularly against resistant bacterial strains such as Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella enterica . In practical application trials, both film formulations effectively extended the shelf life of bread and fresh poultry by mitigating microbial proliferation and suppressing spoilage odors. Sensory evaluation confirmed that the films maintained desirable olfactory profiles, thereby enhancing the perceived quality of the packaged products. Collectively, this study establishes that JK PW-based composites offer a sustainable avenue for active packaging, wherein ginger oil provides superior thermal and antimicrobial stability, while clove oil delivers potent antioxidant protection. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Simultaneous extraction of crude polysaccharides, soluble proteins, gingerols, and shogaols from dried ginger by subcritical water extraction(2025-06-01); ;Kaomaneechot, Sunanta ;Lasim, Sarida; Subcritical water extraction (SWE) is a remarkable method for the simultaneous extraction of high- and low-polarity bioactive compounds from ginger. This study investigated the effects of temperature, pressure, and extraction time on the crude polysaccharide yield, protein content, total phenolic content (TPC), and amounts of 6-gingerol and 6-shogaol. The pressure was maintained at 30 bars, and the temperature and extraction time were optimized to maximize the polysaccharide yield, protein, TPC, gingerols, and shogaols contents. The rising temperatures (100–160 °C) and extended extraction times (10–50 min) enhanced the yield and TPC but negatively affected protein stability, leading to thermal degradation when the temperature surpassed 180 °C. Specifically, the content of 6-gingerol decreased at high temperatures because of its conversion into 6-shogaol. The optimal extraction conditions were 160 °C for 40 min at 30 bars, resulting in a polysaccharide yield of 8.54 %, protein content of 100.35 mg body surface area/g dry mass, TPC of 18.10 mg Galic acid (GA)/g dry mass, 6-gingerol content of 2.14 mg/g dry mass, and 6-shogaol content of 0.28 mg/g dry mass. Therefore, SWE effectively extracts various polar bioactive compounds from plant materials in a single step. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Extraction of Gnetum gnemon L. (Melinjo) Leaves Using Deep Eutectic and Conventional Solvents: Phytochemical Contents, Antioxidant Capacity, and Toxicity Assessment(2026-02-01) ;Rushdy, Muhammad Naufal Qaweim ;Awang, Mohd Azrie ;Benjamin, Mohammad Amil Zulhilmi ;Saini, AnizaMohd Rosdan, Muhammad Daniel EazzatGnetum gnemon L. (Melinjo) is widely recognised for its rich bioactive compounds with potential health benefits. This study evaluates the effectiveness of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) and conventional solvents using ultrasound-assisted extraction on the extraction efficiency, antioxidant activity, and toxicity of G. gnemon leaf extracts (GGLE). Four DESs, namely choline chloride-lactic acid (ChCl-LA), choline chloride-glycerol (ChCl-Gly), betaine-lactic acid (Bet-LA), and L-proline-citric acid (LP-CA), were compared with conventional solvents, namely water, methanol, and ethanol. Extraction performance was evaluated based on crude extract yield (CEY), phytochemical content through chlorogenic acid content (CAC), total phenolic (TP), and total flavonoid (TF), as well as antioxidant activity assessed using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2’-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP) assays. Toxicity was assessed using the brine shrimp lethality assay (BSLA). Among all solvents, ChCl-LA yielded the highest CEY (20.23 ± 0.68%), CAC (13.96 ± 0.31 µg/g), TP (92.54 ± 0.74 mg GAE/g), DPPH (84.95 ± 1.49%), ABTS (91.25 ± 0.34%), and FRAP (481.14 ± 2.31 mg TE/g) (p < 0.05), while exhibiting no toxicity with a high LC₅₀ value (6,339.43 µg/mL). Nonetheless, ethanol yielded the highest TF (2.98 ± 0.47 mg QE/g), followed by ChCl-Gly (2.45 ± 0.27 mg QE/g), although non-significant (p > 0.05), with ChCl-LA (2.14 ± 0.27 mg QE/g) placed as the third highest. Overall, DESs, particularly ChCl-LA, demonstrated promising extraction efficiency and non-toxicity compared to conventional solvents, supporting their potential as greener alternatives for extracting bioactive compounds from G. gnemon leaves. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Development of Functional Fish Gelatin-Based Biomaterial Films Reinforced with Astaxanthin-Rich Oil Extracted from Penaeus Monodon Byproducts via Green NADES-Ultrasonication(2026-01-01) ;Purba, Daniel TuaThis study developed a functional bioactive film based on fish gelatin (FG) with astaxanthin-rich oil (Ax) extracted from black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) byproducts using natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) and ultrasond-assited extraction. The extracted oil showed high antioxidant activity (80.24% DPPH scavenging) and good oxidative stability (PV = 3.12 mEq/kg) within the GOED limit. Fish gelatin films with different Ax concentrations (0.25–1%) were characterized for color, transparency, moisture content, solubility, thickness, and mechanical properties. Results showed that Ax increased film thickness and mechanical properties while decreasing solubility and moisture content. Higher Ax levels similarly increased opacity and redness due to astaxanthin’s carotenoid pigments. FTIR analysis confirmed the molecular interaction between gelatin and Ax, especially hydrogen bonding and ester linkages. These results demonstrate that incorporating astaxanthin-rich oil into fish gelatin film can enhance its functional properties for use in bioactive packaging applications. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Shelf-life extension of Thai green papaya salad dressing by hurdle technology(2024-09-01); ;Krusong, Warawut; ; Srisawat, KraisuwitGreen papaya salad or Som Tum is the most popular spicy mixed salads in Thailand due to its unique rich flavor. Green papaya salad dressing (GPSD) is made from various ingredients such as fresh chili pepper, fresh garlic, rind tamarind, fish sauce and lime oil, including the limitation in controlling the taste and flavor of salad dressing and its poor shelf-life. In this study, a convenient ready-to-eat GPSD was developed. Hurdle technology was applied to extend shelf-life of the GPSD based on monitoring of microbial contamination and food pathogens throughout the process. Hurdle technology able to decrease total plate count (TPC) from 5.6 ± 0.2 to 1 ± 0.3 log CFU/g and yeast and mold (Y&M) from 4.2 ± 0.3 to <1 log CFU/g. After 12 weeks of storage at 5 ± 2 °C, slightly increase of TPC was detected as 1.5 ± 0.2 log CFU/g and no changes were found for Y&M and other pathogens. At week 12, GPSD stored at 32 ± 2 °C was found to have higher TPC and Y&M (3.7 ± 0.3 and 2.4 ± 0.3 log CFU/g, respectively). Therefore, a combination of hurdles that combines low a<inf>w</inf>, low pH, heat treatment, low temperature after hot filling, and chilled storage could extend the shelf-life of GPSD with satisfy sensorial test result and be suitable for minimally processed salad dressing. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Enhancing small-scale acetification processes using adsorbed Acetobacter pasteurianus UMCC 2951 on κ-carrageenan-coated luffa sponge(2024-01-01); ;Krusong, Warawut ;Samuela, Nialmas; Background. This study explored the utilization of luffa sponge (LS) in enhancing acetification processes. LS is known for having high porosity and specific surface area, and can provide a novel means of supporting the growth of acetic acid bacteria (AAB) to improve biomass yield and acetification rate, and thereby promote more efficient and sustainable vinegar production. Moreover, the promising potential of LS and luffa sponge coated with κ-carrageenan (LSK) means they may represent effective alternatives for the co-production of industrially valuable bioproducts, for example bacterial cellulose (BC) and acetic acid. Methods. LS and LSK were employed as adsorbents for Acetobacter pasteurianus UMCC 2951 in a submerged semi-continuous acetification process. Experiments were conducted under reciprocal shaking at 1 Hz and a temperature of 32 <sup>◦</sup>C. The performance of the two systems (LS-AAB and LSK-AAB respectively) was evaluated based on cell dry weight (CDW), acetification rate, and BC biofilm formation. Results. The use of LS significantly increased the biomass yield during acetification, achieving a CDW of 3.34 mg/L versus the 0.91 mg/L obtained with planktonic cells. Coating LS with κ-carrageenan further enhanced yield, with a CDW of 4.45 mg/L. Acetification rates were also higher in the LSK-AAB system, reaching 3.33 ± 0.05 g/L d as opposed to 2.45 ± 0.05 g/L d for LS-AAB and 1.13 ± 0.05 g/L d for planktonic cells. Additionally, BC biofilm formation during the second operational cycle was more pronounced in the LSK-AAB system (37.0 ± 3.0 mg/L, as opposed to 25.0 ± 2.0 mg/L in LS-AAB). Conclusions. This study demonstrates that LS significantly improves the efficiency of the acetification process, particularly when enhanced with κ-carrageenan. The increased biomass yield, accelerated acetification, and enhanced BC biofilm formation highlight the potential of the LS-AAB system, and especially the LSK-AAB variant, in sustainable and effective vinegar production. These systems offer a promising approach for small-scale, semi-continuous acetification processes that aligns with eco-friendly practices and caters to specialized market needs. Finally, this innovative method facilitates the dual production of acetic acid and bacterial cellulose, with potential applications in biotechnological fields. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Actin cytoskeletal inhibitor 19,20-epoxycytochalasin Q sensitizes yeast cells lacking ERG6 through actin-targeting and secondarily through disruption of lipid homeostasis(2021-12-01) ;Watchaputi, Kwanrutai; ;Phromma-in, Nipatthra ;Ratanakhanokchai, KhanokSoontorngun, NitnipaRepetitive uses of antifungals result in a worldwide crisis of drug resistance; therefore, natural fungicides with minimal side-effects are currently sought after. This study aimed to investigate antifungal property of 19, 20-epoxycytochalasin Q (ECQ), derived from medicinal mushroom Xylaria sp. BCC 1067 of tropical forests. In a model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ECQ is more toxic in the erg6∆ strain, which has previously been shown to allow higher uptake of many hydrophilic toxins. We selected one pathway to study the effects of ECQ at very high levels on transcription: the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway, which is unlikely to be the primary target of ECQ. Ergosterol serves many functions that cholesterol does in human cells. ECQ’s transcriptional effects were correlated with altered sterol and triacylglycerol levels. In the ECQ-treated Δerg6 strain, which presumably takes up far more ECQ than the wild-type strain, there was cell rupture. Increased actin aggregation and lipid droplets assembly were also found in the erg6∆ mutant. Thereby, ECQ is suggested to sensitize yeast cells lacking ERG6 through actin-targeting and consequently but not primarily led to disruption of lipid homeostasis. Investigation of cytochalasins may provide valuable insight with potential biopharmaceutical applications in treatments of fungal infection, cancer or metabolic disorder. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Sustainable oleogel encapsulation of tilapia fish oil using protein-based cryogels: fabrication, characterization, and digestion behavior(2025-09-18) ;Purba, Daniel Tua ;Dave, JaydeepIn this study, a novel cryogel-templated oleogel system was developed by incorporating sustainable tilapia fish oil (STFO-O) into hybrid protein-based cryogels composed of whey protein isolate (WPI), fish gelatin (FG), and tannic acid (TA) as a natural polyphenolic crosslinker. Unlike previous reports on single-phase cryogels or oleogels, this dual-network system synergistically combines the advantages of protein-polyphenol interactions and porous cryogel structures for improved encapsulation, stability, and targeted release of omega-3-rich oils. The tilapia visceral oil extracted using a green deep eutectic solvent-ultrasound-assisted method, exhibited high unsaturated fatty acid content (74.07%), including 31.72% polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) and 8.47% omega-3 fatty acids, including α-linolenic acid (ALA), EPA, and DHA. The optimized WPI/FG 15 : 5-TA formulation showed excellent oil absorption (42.20 ± 0.20 g g<sup>−1</sup>) and holding capacity (96.80 ± 0.69%), with a peroxide value of only 2.95 ± 0.14 meq kg<sup>−1</sup> after 8 days at 30 °C, indicating enhanced oxidative stability. FTIR analysis confirmed hydrogen bonding and successful entrapment of oil within the protein matrix. In vitro digestion demonstrated a controlled release profile, with free fatty acid (FFA) release limited to 62.17 ± 2.76% after 120 minutes compared to 83.61 ± 1.42% in the WPI-only control. These results validate the WPI-FG-TA cryogel-oleogel system as a promising and sustainable platform for delivering omega-3-enriched fish oils in functional food and nutraceutical applications.
