The objectives of this research were to study the cost structure of rice cultivation with the activity-based costing method and to compare the cost structure of rice cultivation with the activity-based costing method in Chaiyaphum Province. The sample of this research was 50 rice farmers in Ban Khwao District and 50 rice farmers in Khon Sawan District. A questionnaire was used to collect data. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics including percentage average standard deviation and t-test dependent samples. The results of this study showed that the cost structure of rice cultivation using the activity-based costing system method in Chaiyaphum province consisted of direct material cost direct labor cost and production cost. The direct material cost structure of Ban Khwao district was 232945 baht meanwhile the direct material cost structure of Khon Sawan district was 167850 baht. The direct labor cost of Ban Khwao district was 503600 baht meanwhile direct labor cost of Khon Sawan district was 473250 baht. The production cost of Ban Khwao district was 122610 baht meanwhile the production cost of Khon Sawan district was 121320 baht. The comparison of cost structure of rice cultivation with the activity-based costing method of Chaiyaphum Province showed that total cost of Ban Khwao district was 861605 baht meanwhile total cost of Khon Sawan district was 764970 baht. This implied that total cost of Ban Khwao district was higher than that of Khon Sawan district.

The aim of this work was to validate the sample preparation using a microwave digestion for determination of total arsenic in a spiked soil. Graphite fernace atomic absorbtion spectrophotometer (GFAAS) technique was used to determine the total arsenic using palladium nitrate Pd(NO3)3 as a modifier agent. The instrumental detection was performed under the condition steps of drying ashing atomizing and cleaning to be 100 1200 2250 and 2600 C. The external calibration curve was constructed using the automatic program based on the master standard of arsenic with 20 ppb. It was found that linearity range was in the range of 1 to 20 ppb with R2>0.999. Based on microwave digestion condition the sample preparation with and without HF was also compared the total arsenic in the spiked soil with a 10 ppb. The result shoewd that the arsenic content obtained fron the prearation with and without HF did not significantly diferent at the 95% confidence limit. The recovery was 80.3 and 82.3% for the spiked sample with 2.5 and 10 ppb respectively. The relative standard deviation was 2.15% (n=11). The results of this work can also confirmed that the preparation method using microwave digestion provided the more advantages such as rapid a little volume of reagents completely digestion.

The aim of this work was to fabrication of Hydroxyapatite Glass-ceramic by adding ZrO2 for Dental Application. The glasses were prepared by conventional melting of the coprecipitation derived starting products and heat treated at different temperatures. The structure mechanical properties and microstructure of the samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction Vicker hardness energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and scanning electron microscopy. The data showed that the samples with condition Li1-1450 and heated treatment at 830 C having high strength and proper crystallinity showed good translucency which comparable with that of the sample from factory. XRD analysis revealed XRD analysis revealed that the peak corresponds to the crystallization of Li2SiO3 SiO2or Li6SiO8which are important phases have effect to increasing the mechanical properties of samples.

In this research scaffolds of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) and zinc nickel ferrite (ZnxNi1-xFe2O4) were simply fabricated via the uniaxial pressing together with pressureless sintering which can be tailored for specific applications. The morphology of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4/β-TCP scaffolds with all formulas obtained from the SEM result revealed the larger grains the higher porosity and higher interconnectivity with increasing of ZnxNi1-xFe2O4 amount in β-TCP matrix. The high porous structure of the composite scaffold provided high surface area for cell attachment indicative of good cell growth and differentiation. Biological in vitro test using direct contact method with human cells revealed that the composite scaffold of β-TCP and Zn0.8Ni0.2Fe2O4 with all ratios induced the higher growth of Human osteoblast cells and the better cell spreading on surface of specimens
