In this study 14 bacterial strains isolated from gastrointestinal tract of black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) was investigated for their probiotic potential. The results showed that 6 strains namely S1 S3 S6 S7 T4 and T5 were able to degrade 3 nutrient substances including protein starch and lipid among which S3 S7 and S2 were the best tested nutrient-degrading bacteria respectively. Six bacterial strains were unable to lyse red blood cells including S2 S3 T0 T1 T2 and T3. S2 strain showed the strongest antibacterial activity against shrimp pathogenic Vibrio harveyi following an agar overlay technique. Based on environmental tolerance tests S2 and T0 strains grew well under wide ranges of environmental conditions e.g. sodium chloride concentration (0-8%) pH (6-10) and temperature (25-37C). As a consequence S2 strain had the most probiotic potential for shrimp culture owing to no hemolysis of red blood cells inhibition of V. harveyi growth protein and lipid degrading ability and high environmental tolerance for shrimp cultivation. The strain was identified as Micrococcus sp. S2. However additional study focused on immune response nutrient digestibility and growth promotion of the strain should be further performed in marine shrimp.

The objective of this study is to improve the efficiency in manufacturing process of Arabian-style ventilation bricks with a new production method that uses a machine. The study focuses on all steps of productions in order to increase productivity. After the experiment the study shows that the improvement of ventilation brick manufacturing includes the increase in production volume from 20 pieces per day to 50 pieces per day representing an increase of 76.19 percent; and the decrease in production cycle time originally from 1401 minutes per piece to 97 minutes per piece representing a decrease of 93.07 percent respectively.

This research objective is to improve the overall equipment effectiveness of the water filtration systems in the case study of the Water Treatment Plant which divides the water production into 4 production lines. The water filtration system has an electric actuator and gear is the main machine in the water filtration system. An electric actuator and gear have more machine breakdowns. That makes the water filtration system is the bottleneck of the water production process. This research study is divided into two steps: the first step is the presentation of the equation and the steps to measure the Overall Equipment Effectiveness of the water filtration system. The equation used data from the computer maintenance management system to analysis on mean time between failure data (MTBF) mean time to repair data (MTTR) and water production process data. The results can be improved the overall equipment effectiveness of the water filtration system increased to 0.11% 0.68% 0.44% and 2.44% respectively in each production process line. And increased Quantity of Filtration Water increased to 328500 m3/year 1168000 m3/year 1022000 m3/year and 3832500 m3/year respectively in each production process line. In this research used the pillar of focus improvement. By adding a protection system to prevent machine breakdown because of the most of the problems are found that the protection system malfunctions. This is the most problem in the 4th And then used engineering knowledge to improve water production and the success factor are required a human resources of all parties to cooperate brainstorm and analyze the causes of various losses in order to eliminate them.

In conducting the research on Material Science two composite materials ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) powder and aluminum oxide (Al2O3) powder were formulated by hot compression molding process. The formulated materials demonstrated good mechanical properties and high wear resistance properties. Based on the studies the Al2O3 grade selected was Al2O3 HTM 30 harboring mixed uneven powder particle sizes ranging from 2 to 5 microns (μm) and selected proportion of Al2O3 alloy mixed for improving mechanical and wear resistance properties of the UHMWPE composite material was the UHMWPE+Al2O3 HTM 30 at a ratio of 95:5%. When considering both material properties and cost effectiveness in the impact test 2-5 μm Al2O3 HTM carried the higher impact strength than other aluminum oxide grades with the values up to 586.8 J/m at a ratio of 5% aluminum oxide. The hardness test of the 2-5 μm UHMWPE+ Al2O3 HTM delivered the hardness at 58.8 using the standard durometer. The tensile test values consisted of Yield Strength Ultimate Tensile Strength Breaking Strength Elongation at Break and Modulus of elasticity equal to 20.52 MPa 29.96 MPa 22.83 MPa 265.8% and 784.46 MPa respectively.

The objectives of this study and product development of Thai Song Dam fabric womens bags were to study the cultural identity of the Thai Song Dam people to develop womens bags made from Thai Song Dam fabric and to study the satisfaction with the development of Thai Song Dam women bags products. The research instruments were an interview and a questionnaire for 80 women who were interested in Thai Song Dam fabric bags. The data were analyzed using a statistical package program such as frequency percentage mean and standard deviation. The results of the study on cultural identity of the Thai Song Dam people found that the dresses and souvenir products of the Thai Song Dam people have the most unique patterns to decorate the fabric which is embroidered with Piao flowers pattern. As for the development of bags made from Thai Song Dam fabric it was found that Thai Song Dam women’s bag are not produced. The researcher therefore studied by applying the patterns of womens bags that are popular today and applying the embroidered with Piao flowers patterns that are the identity of the Thai Song Dam people. As for the satisfaction towards the product development of Thai Song Dam womens bags it was found that overall product development satisfaction was at the highest level (x = 4.75 S.D. = 0.90). The overall satisfaction in sewing products was at the highest level (x = 4.64 S.D. = 0.39) and the overall bag product satisfaction was also at the highest level (x = 4.88 S.D. =0.32).
