A small plasma system using microwave oven was developed for the application of surface modification and cleaning in thin films research. The microwave oven with 800-Watt power generates 2.45-GHz frequency. The vacuum chamber was inserted into the microwave oven from the top of oven wall and it was evacuated by a rotary pump to less than 7 x 10-3 Torr. This system can generate argon and oxygen plasma at a pressure of 0.2 – 3.0 Torr. This small plasma system was applied to clean a surface of microscope glass slide using argon and oxygen plasma. To reveal the effects of argon and oxygen plasma on material surface the glass slide was measured by contact angle tensiometer. The results show that the contact angle between a water droplet and glass surface decreases with increasing the exposure time. This result indicates that the cleanness of material surface was improved by using the small plasma system.

Gac fruit healthy fruit contains many antioxidants such as beta-carotene lycopene. Traditional process by boil reduces antioxidants. The purpose of this study is to process gac juice mixed passion fruit juice by microwave. The optimum formulation from consumer tests were done with 50 juice preferred consumer show that the average like is 3.90 point (5 point). The study used the 3X2 factorial in CRD with 600 700 and 800 watts and at 45 and 55 sec. Analyzed color amount of beta-carotene lycopene pH and microorganisms showed that 700 watts at 45 sec. gave the highest level of beta-carotene contents at 38.11 ?g/g. The comparison between the gac juice mixed passion fruit juice through boiled process and the gac juice mixed passion fruit juice through microwave process was investigated. The content of beta-carotene and lycopene of juice through microwave process was than 2.43 and 1.59 times respectively.
