This study was undertaken to determine effect of bio-extract fermented from pig placenta and effect of wood vinegar solutions on seed germination percentage and speed of germination of 2 rice cultivars Chai Nat 1 and Sang Yod Phattalung. The experiment was conducted in factorial in completely randomized design with 2 factors and 4 replications. The first factor was ratios of the solutions to water and the second was duration for seed incubation. The results demonstrated that wood vinegar showed more positive effect on rice seed germination performances than that of bio-extract. Speed of germination was affected by an inter-action between the dilutions of the solutions and the duration for seed incubation. In Chai nat 1 experiment the seed soaked in 20 times dilution of bio-extract and subsequently incubated for 24 hrs increased speed of germination of the seed. While soaking the seed in 400 times dilution of wood vinegar and incubated for 24 hrs could enhance both percentage and speed of the seed germination. In Sang Yod Phattalung experiment soaking the seed in 50 times dilution of bio-extract and subsequently incubated for 48 hrs or soaking the seed in 300 times dilution of wood vinegar and incubated for 48 hrs could enhance both percentage and speed of seed germination. According to the results we concluded that soaking rice seed in bio-extract of pig placenta fermentation or in wood vinegar solutions could enhance the seed quality.

For one-part adhesive systems a long working-life adhesive which can be cured rapidly at processing temperature is required in industrial applications because it provides assembly process versatility. The aim of this research was to study the methods for extending the working-life of an epoxy-based adhesive with anhydride curing agent. This adhesive formulation is used as an underfill material in electronic industry. The scope of this study was divided into two parts: 1) modification of adhesive formulation process 2) determination of the component in adhesive which causes the adhesive viscosity increased at ambient temperature. The results showed that the adhesive working-life extended from 2 hours to 6 hours with reducing formulation process time removing the moisture in filler and reducing fluxing precursor loading in adhesive. In addition the fluxing precursor loading also affects the thermo-mechanical properties of adhesive. For characterization the working-life and thermo-mechanical properties of this formulation were investigated using rheological technique and dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) respectively.

The aim of this research is to analyze the needs and opinions of experts concerning competency required for computer related jobs in the present and the future. Its outcomes would be used in designing a Work-integrated learning (WiL) programs in undergraduate computer related programs (Computer Engineering Software Engineering Computer Science Information Technology and Information System) which meet quality standard specified by The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) The Association for Information Systems (AIS) and The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineer - Computer Society (IEEE-CS). The forty educational institutions and industries in line with the development of hardware and software the installation of operating system the installation and maintenance of the network the application of information technology and the use of information system in management were invited to participate in this study. The instruments employed for data collection were questionnaires comprising six parts: 1) General Knowledge of Computer Personnel; 2) Knowledge of Computer Engineering Personnel; 3) Knowledge of Software Engineering Personnel. 4) Knowledge of Computer Science Personnel; 5) Knowledge of Information Technology Personnel and 6) Knowledge of Information System Personnel. Statistic devices used in analyzing the data were frequency percentage arithmetic mean and standard deviation. The results were also compared with the performance analysis of Competency of Computer Jobs Category in ASEAN countries Japan Europe and America. The results were also validated by 12 specialists using a purposive sampling from educational institutions enterprises and the professional associations. It was found that the Competency Required of Computer Job Category for educational management on WIL program were: 1) Computer Architect 2) Computer Support 3) Computer Specialist 4) Project Manager 5) Software Development 6) Applied Program Specialist 7) Computer Consultant 8) Sale and Marketing and 9) Computer Education Trainer. All job positions should be consistent with the empirical data which are statistically significant at p-value =0.05. The Competency Required of Computer Job Category overall fit are accepted.

The purposes of this research were 1) to study problems and needs of designing packages for mixing mangosteen extract soap for the Faculty of Science and Technology Rajamangala University of Technology Thanyaburi 2) to design and develop packages for mixing mangosteen extract soap and 3) to assess the satisfactions towards the packages from manufacturers consumers and packaging experts. The samples consisted of 235 people. A structured interview and questionnaire were used to collect the data which was then analyzed using percentile values means and standard division. The result showed that since there had not been packages for this mixing mangosteen extract soap to be sold in the market four patterns of packages were designed and construced for three products. The three products were 1) 80 grams of mixing mangosteen extract soap 2) 100 ml. of facial cream mixed with mangosteen extract and 3) 400 ml. of mixing mangosteen extract liquid soap. The second pattern was rated a high level of satisfaction by the target group.

This research aimed to study and analyse conditions and problems in designing and developing household and decorative products of One Tambon One Product (OTOP) small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Pathumthani province. The informants were 4 OTOP entrepreneurs and 205 OTOP SMEs. The research was conducted by means of interviews observations and questionnaires. The data was statistically analysed using frequency percentages mean and standard deviation. The results showed that conditions and problems in designing and developing household and decorative OTOP products ranged from home-based production site a lack of knowledge in product design and development transportation creativity artistic relations product specifications marketing to product design and development laws. Four entrepreneurs from these groups of products: lotus-fiber flowers silk flowers and bamboo lamps were found to have the problem of dyeing materials whilst those from the group of Thai/Japanese clay flowers had the problem of clay. The researcher had analysed piloted and concluded the problems and then passed on product development techniques to the entrepreneurs. It was found that they could use the given knowledge to make beautiful products and they satisfied with the reducing cost of production.
