title: Development of paper-based microfluidic devices for the determination of albumin, creatinine, cholesterol, and glucose

description: This work concentrates on the development of diagnotic device for heart disease, kidney failure, diabetes, and hypertension that affected by the levels of glucose, cholesterol, albumin, and creatinine. Paper-based microfluidic devices (µPADs) with colorimetric method were used to determine these analytes. First, the Photolithography was used to fabricate the devices, but the cost of photoresist polymer is very expensive, then wax-dipping and wax-printing method were also used. µPADs were used to detect cholesterol, and glucose. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration curves between the color intensity and concentration of analytes were obtained. The plot of these relationship indicated that the cholesterol linearity was 50-400 mg dL-¹ and the glucose linearity was 0-400 mg.dL-¹. In this work, the novel method for the determination of glucose was also proposed by malachite green reaction, the linearity of this method was in the range of 40-120 mg.dL-¹ with R² of 0.9924. The %RSD was found to be 1.5-2.0. In addition, µPADs were used to detect albumin and creatinine by using AuNPs. The size of AuNPs were obtained as 40 nm for determination of creatinine, and 20 nm for determination of albumin. The concentration of AuNPs used was 1000 mg.L-¹ for both albumin and creatinine detection.

title: Carbon footprint of flat and long steel products

description: This study determines CO₂ emissions of steel products in Thailand using flat product and long product as a case study using the bottom-up and gate-to-gate approach. The boundary of the study covers from imported slabs and billets to hot rolled coils and rebars. Majority of the emission was originated from fuel combustion for heat (65-68%) and also electricity (32-35%) in the production line. This study proposes alternative solutions for emission reductions. For short-term solution, energy efficiency, is able to marginally reduce CO₂ intensity by as much as 7% in three years but not enough to cope with the growth of flat steel production. Fuel switching to natural gas which has lower carbon content could help reduce the emission up to 19% but will result in greater dependence on dwindling supply of fossil fuels. Switching to zero-emission biomass, which is abundant in Thailand, is able to virtually eliminate fuel-related emission, resulting in 65-68% of reduction from total emission. Biomass, too, could be used as electricity-generating fuels which will eliminate the electricity-related emission. Moreover, using biomass is one of solution for energy security situation. For electricity aspect, using cleaner source of energy could help reduce CO₂ emissions. If Power Development Plan 2010 could be successfully implemented, CO₂ intensity from the study plant in year 2030 would be 11.5 % lower than the 2009 level. For this to be successfully implemented, raw material supply system should be established to ensure continuous stream of fuel. Last but not least, there should be appropriate technologies, financial incentives, and the will power to ensure its success.

title: Effect of CYP2D6 polymorphism on Tamoxifen pharmacokinetic in Thai breast cancer patients

description: The purposes of this study were to explore CYP2D6*10 allele frequency in Thai breast cancer patients and compare tamoxifen and its metabolites plasma concentration between patients with CYP2D6*1 and CYP2D6*10 alleles. A prospective clinical study was performed, data was collected at the breast cancer surgery outpatient clinic of Phramongkutklao hospital, Bangkok. Genotyping of CYP2D6 was analyzed in 67 breast cancer patients. The frequency of CYP2D6*10/10, CYP2D6*1/10, and CYP2D6*1/1 was 29.9 %, 37.3%, and 32.8 %, respectively. Our results showed that the steady-state plasma concentrations of tamoxifen and its metabolites (endoxifen and N-desmethyltamoxifen among 59 patients with three CYP2D6 genotypes were significantly different (P = 0.045). The plasma concentrations of endoxifen in patients carrying CYP2D6*10/*10 were lower than those with CYP2D6 1/*10 and CYP2D6 1/*1 (9.62 ng/ml vs 15.67 ng/ml vs 21.55 ng/ml, respectively). In addition, the plasma concentrations of N-desmethyltamoxifen and tamoxifen among three CYP2D6 genotypes were also significantly different (P= 0.020, P= 0.027, respectively).

title: Cost-utility evaluation of influenza vaccination in patients with existing cardiovascular diseases in Thailand

description: Influenza can exacerbate chronic coronary heart disease (CHD) and health policy recommends influenza vaccination in this patient group. However, the cost effectiveness of influenza vaccination in protecting CHD patients has not been well studied before especially in different disease severities. The Markov model of CHD progression concurrent with influenza infection was developed to quantify the life-time costs and health effects of the three influenza vaccination strategies in: 1) Angina patients; 2) Cardiac Arrest/Myocardial Infarction (CA/MI) patients; 3) CHD combined group, versus no influenza vaccination. Cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA) comparing between the three vaccination strategies was performed to assess the highest effectiveness from a societal perspective. Decision analysis software (TreeAge) was used to explore relative cost-effectiveness of influenza vaccination strategies. Deterministic and probabilistic analyses were performed to identify variables that influence the sensitivity of the result and the robustness of the study model. The results showed Incremental Cost Effectiveness (ICER) of vaccination in Angina patient, in CA/MI patients, and in CHD combined group as 8,420, 62,711 and 33,813 THB per QALY gained, respectively; therefore, the highest cost-effectiveness is vaccination in Angina patients. Considering willingness to pay (WTP) threshold at 100,000 THB per QALY as accepted by Thai National Formulary 2010, influenza vaccination in CHD combined group is the most optimal and should be recommended as it yielded highest QALYs gained while it is still within WTP threshold.The study results are in accordance with the current influenza vaccine recommendation, both international and Thailand. Influenza vaccine underutilization has been reported; therefore, strongly promoting the administration of influenza vaccination to CHD patients is highly recommended.

title: Imputing incomplete multi-dimensional data using neural network and clustering similarity comparison

description: This dissertation presented a method to fill in missing data in multi-dimensional data. These data are divided into two categories. The first one is incomplete time series data. The algorithm for imputing the missing time-series data is based on the gradient of the area surrounding the missing data. The missing information which is the gradient of a data falls in one of the following three categories: positive gradient, negative gradient, and zero gradient. When a group of missing data belongs to one of three categories, the missing data are imputed with bootstrapping method. The second type is filling in the incomplete multi-dimensional data in an image. To impute the missing image, the characteristics of missing image are used. If missing data are randomly and fine scattered, an artificial neural network model is used to create an approximated surface to cover those missing data. But if the missing data are clustered in forms of an empty shape, then a similarity pattern searching and filling is performed. The missing data areas are divided into a set of equal size of windows. This windowed area will be compared with every other non-missing data area of the image area to find the most similar area with the missing area. The experimental results concluded that our proposed algorithms are outperformed the other tradition methods in several cases.

title: A study of voltage sag effects on induction motors

description: Voltage sags are a common power quality problem occurring in power systems. They are usually characterized by remaining voltage, duration, and phase jump. Several industrial equipment, especially induction motors, are highly sensitive to voltage sags. This thesis studies the effects of unsymmetrical and symmetrical voltages sags on behavior of an induction motor. Both experiment and computer simulation using EMTP-ATP are conducted to observe variations of current, speed and torque of the induction motor during voltage sags of its supply. Voltage sags affect not only motor supply but also contactors that control the operation of motors. Thus, the sensitivity of an ac coil contactor to voltage sags is investigated by a test. Computer simulation is also carried out to study the response of contactor to voltage sags.

title: Synthesis and characterization of copper nanoparticles for conductive ink applications

description: The synthesis of copper nanoparticles by arc discharge submerged in dielectric liquid (ethylene glycol and diethylene glycol) at ambient atmosphere was studied in this work. The XRD, SEM, and TEM were used for depiction crystalline structure, morphology, and size of copper nanoparticles, respectively. The nanoparticles synthesized contained of both copper and copper oxide. The copper oxide was formed by oxygen free radicals during decomposition of the dielectric liquid. The copper nanoparticles synthesized were spherical morphologies with 10-20 nm. We studied the effect of sodium borohydride sodium hypophosphite and L-ascorbic acid with concentration of 0.1~1 M used as reducing agent. L-ascorbic acid and sodium borohydride could reduce particles synthesized to pure copper at low temperature. The effect of PVP (0.05~0.5M) was then studied. PVP could prevent agglomeration of copper nanoparticles and provide protection for copper oxide formation. We confirmed the formation of copper nanoparticles with in PVP matrix by using FTIR. By adding 0.1 M and 0.5 M PVP in copper nanoparticles synthesized in EG and DEG respectively, the produced copper nanoparticles could maintain for 30 days without oxide formation.

title: International workshop on understanding the responses of Greenland’s marine-terminating glaciers to oceanic and atmospheric forcing, 2013

description: A United States Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) sponsored international workshop was convened in June 2013 to discuss the problem of “Understanding the Response of Greenland’s Marine-Terminating Glaciers to Oceanic and Atmospheric Forcing” and the challenges to improving observations, process understanding, and modeling. The rationale for holding the workshop derives from observations over the last decade of increased mass loss from the margins of the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS). The widespread, regionally synchronous acceleration, and thinning of some of its major marine-terminating outlet glaciers point to a common climatic driver, consistent with the observed warming of the North Atlantic subpolar gyre and near-surface atmospheric warming. Detailed process understanding, however, is currently lacking. This hampers assessment of the impact of increased freshwater flux from the GrIS, not only on regional and global sea level, but also on the North Atlantic circulation and its effect on climate over the Atlantic sector. Specific meeting goals were: 1. Advancing the science, through improved communication, coordination, and collaboration between the diverse communities; 2. Establishment of the foundation for multidisciplinary efforts that will lead to deeper understanding of physical processes, better representation of these processes in climate models, and, consequently, more reliable projections of the Greenland Ice Sheet contribution to sea level; 3. Training and network building across disciplines for scientists at all career levels, with specific focus on advanced graduate students and early career scientists. 4. Identification of synergies of national and international projects; 5. A document describing a prioritized set of recommendations to advance this urgent and complex interdisciplinary problem.

title: Parkes observations for project P988 semester 2019APRS_01

description: We are resubmitting this proposal as the backend system, MEDUSA, failed after only a few hours of our observing. This means that we did not achieve wide-band observations for the majority of the pulsars requested. The PULSE@Parkes sample of pulsars provides a well studied set of bright pulsars. We propose to observe these pulsars using the wide-bandwidth receiver at Parkes in order to obtain high signal-to-noise pulse profiles across the band. We will use those profiles to measure the fundamental properties of the pulse emission over the wide band by measuring flux densities, spectral indices, rotation measures and the pulse profile shape.

title: Preparation of poly(aluminium chloride) and poly(aluminium silicate chloride) from sludge of C₅ resin

description: Sludge containing aluminium hydroxide generated in the C₅ resin processing, was currently disposed by landfill. In this research, this sludge was used as the raw material for synthesizing poly(aluminium chloride) or PAC. PACs with different OH/Al molar ratios (n= 0-3) and poly(aluminium silicate chloride) or PASiC. PASiC with different Si/Al molar ratios (n= 5-20) were prepared by acid hydrolysis method. The dried sludge contained Al₂O₃ 43.95 % (w/w) or aluminium content 23.26 % (w/w). The products were characterized by x-ray diffraction spectroscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and aluminium species distribution using the ferron technique. The performance of synthesized coagulants was investigated by jar test with water sample from rayong river and was monitored with turbidity, pH and time of coagulation. The PAC with OH/Al molar ratios (2.5:1) exhibited to be the best of all PACs and gave similar results of comercial PAC and the PASiC with Si/Al molar ratios (1:20) gave high performance more than comercial PAC.

title: Feasibility study of flared gas utilization for unconventional oilfield in thailand

description: In this thesis, an onshore marginal oilfield is studied. The field currently produces oil approximately 8,500 barrels per day as well as natural gas around 1,300,000 scfd (standard cubic feet per day) which is disposed by flaring. The challenging of this field is that there are twenty nine oil wells producing oil from twenty one well site locations while each well has its own processing equipment’s and does not connect to each other. Furthermore, this field is an unconventional oilfield which produced from volcanic rock reservoir. The production life of each well is shorter than conventional oilfield production that normally produced from sandstone reservoir. These reasons are taken into account for considering gas utilization options. The production forecast in this thesis has been performed by Decline Curve Analysis (DCA) method the result showed small gas production forecast and very short production life, which is only 1-2 years in average. These data has been used for feasibility study for gas utilization in 4 possible well known options namely power generation, Compressed Natural Gas (CNG), Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), and on-site gas utilization. These options are studied in detail on technical and economic feasibility study. According to the studied result, only on-site gas utilization is technical and economic feasible. The rest options are infeasible because the limitation of economic reason and short production life.

title: Effects of agricultural land use on the transport of cadmium in Mae Tao Creek, Thailand

description: At the Mae Tao subcatchment high cadmium concentrations in environmental samples have been found i.e. soil in paddy fields absorbing water from the Mae Tao Creek, sediment in the Mae Tao Creek and rice. So, the government has established an implementation plan to solve the problems of cadmium contamination such as collecting and purchasing the contaminated rice and destroy it, establishment of the sugarcane plantation for ethanol production, construction of dams for development of water resources. This research concentrated on the effects of the change of agricultural land usage and the hydraulic structure on cadmium transport via suspended sediment and bed load in the Mae Tao Creek.The cadmium concentrations of suspended sediment, bed load and grain size distribution of bed load along the Mae Tao Creek were gathered from field observations conducted from the dry and wet seasons. MIKE SHE coupled with MIKE 11 was applied to determine the time series of hydrodynamics (water depth and water discharge), which was calibrated with the measured water depth. Sediment transport was consequently computed by inputting the simulated hydrodynamics into the sediment transport module in MIKE 11. Eventually, the sediment transport data was simulated by the model and observed cadmium concentrations were used to obtain the cadmium transport in the Mae Tao Creek. From the results, cadmium contaminated via sediment transport in the Mae Tao Creek is mainly generated in the wet season, and was dominated by suspended sediment transport. From May 2011 to February 2012, the amount of cadmium transported out of the Mae Tao Creek was approximately 16.33 kg in the wet season with 16.20 kg and in the dry season with 0.13 kg.As substitution of rice in current agricultural land use to sugarcane plantation leaded to a decrease of accumulated sediment both suspended sediment and bed load. However, the small change sediment slightly affected the cadmium; the land use change was a small area when compared to the whole study area. The assessment of hydraulic structure responses on cadmium transport in the Mae Tao Creek indicated that the cadmium transport through weir location for case without weir and with weir in the period May 2011 to February 2012 are 18.06 kg and 12.86 kg, respectively.
