title: Estimation of non-dietary cadmium exposure and risk associated with it in farm community living in Mae Sot, Tak province

description: The non-dietary exposure of cadmium (Cd) among farm community in Mae Sot district, Tak Province and its risk associated was estimated by using an in–vitro oral bioaccessibility method comparing with the control site. Total Cd concentrations in soil were ranged from ND-162 mg/kg. For residential and agricultural areas, the Cd concentrations in soil were ranged from ND-156 mg/kg and 1.32-162 mg/kg, respectively. Bioaccessibility of Cd was ranged from 8.6-96.0%. Average daily intake of soil cadmium via incidental soil ingestion among farmers, normal adults (non-farming), children aged 6-8 years and younger children aged 1-5 years were 3.47, 0.95, 1.9 and 3.8 µg/day, respectively. When the intake estimations were adjusted with body weight, the intake among men and women farmer were 0.35 and 0.42 µg/week/kg BW, respectively. The intake among normal adults men and women (non-farming), children aged 6-8 years and young children aged 1-5 years were 0.10, 0.12, 0.70 and 2.0 µg/week/kg BW, respectively, which contribute to a considerable amount of tolerable intakes (TI-s) set by US.EPA. The results indicated that Cd intake via incidental soil ingestion pathway alone in children aged 1-5 years may contribute to high percentage of TI-s and sometimes exceed the TI-s. Therefore, Cd intake among young children is needed to be surveillance. The Cd concentrations in soil and Cd intake via incidental soil ingestion in the contaminated site are significantly higher than those in the control site. Since bioaccessibility is site-specific, the nature of bioaccessible Cd was determined. The bioaccessible Cd in soil in the contaminated site behaved similar to Ca, Mg and Zn at p &lt; 0.01, significantly. Ni might compete in dissolution with Cd in the gastric environment (negative correlation at p &lt; 0.01, significantly). A significant positive correlation of bioaccessible Cd with bioacessible Ni (p &lt; 0.01) confirmed the possibility of competing Ni with Cd Bioaccessible Cd showed a weak correlation with organic matters at p &gt; 0.1 indicating that organo-Cd complexes in the site might be somewhat bioaccessible.

title: Chemical constituents from the roots of Shorea roxburghii G. Don

description: The investigation for chemical constituents and their biological activities from acetone crude extract of the roots of Shorea roxburghii G. Don led to the isolation of a new stilbenoid, roxburghiol A (5), along with fourteen known compounds, melanoxylin A (1), caragaphenol A (2), epsilon-viniferin (3), hopeahainanphenol (4), vitisinol G (6), vaticanol A (7), hopeaphenol (8), isohopeaphenol (9), apigenin 7-O-glucoside (10), trans-piceid (11), trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxystilbene 2-C-glucoside (12), neoisohopeaphenol A (13), balanocarpol (14) and gnemonol K (15). The structures of all isolated compounds were elucidated by physical properties and spectroscopic methods as well as comparison with previous literature data. The evaluation for antioxidant activity (DPPH radical scavenging) and cytotoxic activity against HeLa and KB cell lines found that most of isolated compounds showed antioxidant activity toward DPPH radical with IC[subscript 50] values in the range of 0.23-0.41 mM, and these compounds also exhibited cytotoxicity against KB cell line more than HeLa cell line. Compounds 8 and 9 showed the most effective cytotoxicity against KB cell line with IC[subscript 50] = 6.47 and 8.50 µ/mL, and HeLa cell line with IC[subscript 50] = 8.66 and 10.12 µ/mL, respectively. Compounds 4, 7, 10 and 11 were inactive toward both cell lines (IC[subscript 50] &gt; 80.0 µ/mL).

title: Factors influencing the practice of household waste management among Myanmar migrants in Muang district, Ranong province, Thailand

description: This study is cross sectional study and was collected in Muang District, Ranong Province in March, 2010. Four hundred Myanmar migrants of age ranged 18- 65 years asked by using structured questionnaire. The objective of the study are 1) To assess the level of knowledge and attitude towards household waste management and 2) To identify the factors influencing practice of household waste management among Myanmar migrants in the studied area. Out of the respondents, 92.5% were female, 42.8% were Dawe, 92.5% were Buddhist, 74.8% were married and 38.8% were the age group 26 to 35 years. Among the respondents, half of the percentage 51.8% attended primary school, 55.2% were housewives, 93% were registered migrants, 41.8% were residing in Thailand for 3 to 6 years, 39.2% were staying in recent household for 1 to 3 years, monthly family income ranged 2500-5000 Baht is 35% and nearly half of the respondents 49% can communicate basically in Thai language. Nearly half of the respondents 49.8% have high level of knowledge and 61.2% of the respondents have moderate attitude level. Only 16.5% had good practice towards household waste management. In terms of accessibility, 92.5% of the respondents got the information about household waste management from the sources of Thai government and INGOs. Around 90% had public trash bins near their house, 95.8% had household collecting system in their community and 98.2% had scrap buyers in their community. The study reported that there were many factors influencing the practice of household waste management among Myanmar migrants. Among predisposing factors, there are significant differences between age, sex, occupation, duration of staying in recent household, migrant status, monthly family income, knowledge and attitude (P-value = 0.001), educational level (P-value = 0.024), family size (P-value = 0.016) and practice towards household waste management. Regarding to the enabling factors, there is significant difference between availability of household waste information (P-value = 0.001) and practice towards household waste management. Likewise, there is significant difference between availability of scrap buyers (P-value = 0.038) and practice towards household waste management for reinforcing factors. The health education program targeting to age, sex and occupation including community participation should be emphasized in order to improve practice towards household waste management.

title: Effect of water pretreatment on alumina-based catalysts in methanol dehydration

description: In this study, gamma-Al₂O₃ and amorphous AlPO₄ were synthesized and tested in methanol dehydration reaction. Both gamma-Al₂O₃ and AlPO₄ catalysts showed increasing of activity when temperature direction during reaction test changed from step-up (150›200›250›300) to step-down (300›250›200›150). The effect of the presence of water product was studied by pretreatment of AlPO₄ catalyst with water various conditions. FT-IR and FT-Raman results indicated formation of P-OH group on the pretreated catalysts, which was one of intermediate for methanol dehydration. Amine titration also showed increasing of both strength and amount of acid sites on surface of the treated catalysts. The appropriate temperature on AlPO₄ catalyst was determined to be 200-250 degrees celsius for 10% mol of water in 5,300 h[superscript -1] GHSV for 15 minutes. On the other hand, the presence of water at 100 degrees celsius pretreatment became AlPO₄ poison which indicated by TGA and FT-Raman that physisorbed water could block the adsorption of methanol on catalyst active sites instead.

title: Factors affecting the rise of suicide rate in South Korea

description: In South Korea, there have been numerous superstars and celebrities who have decided to take their own lives. Noticeably, many of them seem not to have any serious trouble at all. Yet if we look carefully, the cause of such Korea’ high profile suicides links with pressures and stresses derived from sort of factor ‘behind the scene’. This leads to the purpose of the research; that is to investigate factors affecting the rise of suicide rate in South Korea. The scope of problem includes trend of labor shortage in the near future, and the rapid aging society that will soon increase the dependency rate on youngster. As most people always blamed external factors such as demographic changes, social factor, and especially economic crisis as the first cause of suicide, this research aim to prove whether external factor really affect the rising of suicide rate in South Korea. If it is so, how each factor contributes to accelerate the rise of suicide?. Both documentary research and quantitative research was conducted. A dozen of Korea’ high profile suicides reported through media during 2000-2009 was picked up as the case studies in order to understand more on the varying factors affecting suicide decision on each individual. Also, multiple linear regression was applied to test the relationship of suicide rate and each represented factor; demographic, economic, and social through computer program. The study found that social and demographic changes was the factors affecting the rise of suicide rate in South Korea through 4 predictors; that is child dependency rate, aged dependency rate, crude marriage rate, and crude divorce rate. Economic factor represented by GDP per capita and unemployment rate are excluded from the equation as it did not show enough explanatory power. However, external factors still play a major role in sparking the rise of suicide rate in South Korea because of its severe impact affecting social changes and mental illness contributing to higher suicide rate.

title: Factors affecting quality of life among patients with post-operative breast cancer in Roi-Et province, Thailand

description: This was a cross-sectional study that included 250 post-operative breast cancer patients in Roi-et Province, Thailand. The study was intended to describe the participants' quality of life (QOL) and perceived quality of health services, as assessed by standardized interviewer-administered questionnaires. The study also examined associations of relevant independent variables with service quality and with QOL. Interviews were conducted in the surgical unit within 2 weeks after surgery. Health-related quality of life was assessed by using the WHOQOL-BREF. Most respondents had a moderate level of Quality of life (51.2%), followed by high (48.4%) and low (0.4%) level of quality of life post operative breast Cancer respectively. Service quality score and quality of life (QOL) score were positively and statistically significantly correlated (r=0.569, p&lt;0.001). Age was not significantly related to either score. Age and income were significantly associated with both scores, bur directions of associations were not regular. Neither occupation nor presence of health problems in family members were significantly associated with either score. Both scores were significantly lower in participants in the 30-baht scheme than in those in other insurance schemes. Further research is needed to provide explanations for study findings. This study has limitations. Service quality and QOL were measured within 2 weeks of surgery. These could change with longer time after surgery, as could observed associations of independent variables with service quality and with QOL. Also, type of surgery (e.g., mastectomy vs. lumpectomy), which can be an important determinant of QOL, was not analyzed in this study. The communicable disease and emerging disease of the breast cancer can affect Thai nationals also. To control some disease, quality of life the stakeholders provides supplement information for the formulation of health policy and making resource allocation decisions. To improve quality of life of the patients with post operative breast cancer, Roi-Et Hospital, Roi-Et Province, both governments of the source county and host county should incorporate the breast cancer health in nation and sectoral policies for sustainable development, poverty reduction, employment, trade, environmental protection, and education.

title: Probabilistic estimation of water injection volume into multilayer depleted reservoirs

description: To investigate a probabilistic approach to estimate possible water injection volume into multilayer depleted reservoirs by accounting for uncertainties in OGIP, rate allocation and injection skin. The estimation of injection volume depends on the knowledge of the original and current reservoir pressures and cumulative production; given that the final injection pressure should not be higher than the original undepleted reservoir pressure. Since the well has commingled completion, the data for the original and current reservoir pressures, cumulative production and injection skin for each individual reservoir are not available. Therefore, a conventional method of estimating water injection volume based on history matching and material balance is not practical for multilayer reservoirs. The probabilistic estimation introduced in this study uses integrated production modeling (IPM) to forecast production and injection profiles. This estimation is validated by comparing water injection history vs. simulated water injection volume where simulated water injection volume is generated from applying probabilistic estimation. Openserver is used to generate a large number of realizations to create a cumulative distribution function for cumulative water injection volume. From this study, the probabilistic estimation can provide a reliable estimate for water injection volume, total OGIP and the end of injection period. Injection skin has little effect on cumulative water injection but has important effect on the amount of time needed to inject water until a reservoir pressure reaches its original reservoir pressure.

title: Effects of organic carbon addition on microbial floc formation and water quality in closed aquaculture system

description: This research examined the closed-water aquacultures by using the concept of biofloc technology. The first part of research studied the optimal condition for biofloc formation based on manipulating the substrate C:N ratio while the latter part used the information obtained from the first part to cultivate tilapia in suspension systems without any water exchange. The research also investigated the characteristics of biofloc. For the first section, tapioca starch can be substituted for glucose as means to stimulate biofloc formation. With the presence of essential elements in shrimp diets the biofloc production was more productive. The weight C:N ratio at 16:1 was able to promote the highest biofloc production and was efficient in maintaining TAN and nitrite compared to the lower C:N ratios. Pond water containing natural biofloc appeared more effective than tap water in controlling inorganic nitrogen. For the second part of this research, the daily use of C:N ratio at 16:1 was more effective in maintaining TAN and nitrite in water. Despite a significant increase of suspended solids from 30 to 1,118 mg SS/L, the effective nitrogen treatment did not proceed until a complete nitrification was established in the tanks, thereby implying that the water must be pre-acclimated to achieve the complete nitrification process. The morphology of biofloc was irregular shape containing filamentous microorganisms, rotifers, nematode, and small amount of microalgae. The proximate analysis revealed that the carbon and nitrogen contents of biofloc in the treatments were at 34.5% and 4.2%, respectively whereas the carbon and nitrogen contents in the controls were at 21.7% and 2.19%. Finally, the nitrogen balance and PCR-DGGE analysis indicated that biofloc were highly diverse and dynamics.

title: The imitative behavior to Korean singers of Thai teenagers

description: The purpose of this research is to explain the imitative behavior to Korean singers of Thai teenagers, including their attitudes the Korean singers, influence of Korean culture about Korean singers make Thai teenagers have the imitative behavior and consequential problems from their behaviors. The sample group comprises Thai teenagers living in Bangkok, age between 12-22 years old, who are interested in imitated to Korean singers. The study focuses on the imitative behavior such as fashion, dress, hair style. make-up, dance and shopping products which Korean singers are presenters. The research was carried out in two sections. The first part was the qualitative research by using the interview of the group Thai teenagers. The second one was quantitative research by collecting the questionnaire. SPSS program was used as data analysis tool for the quantitative study. The research result was finding suggest that the majority of Thai teenagers has positive attitude in medium level towards Korean singers. The Korean singers have influenced Thai teenagers to imitated Korean fashion, dress make-up, hair style and dance. But Thai teenagers shopping products did not depend on Korean singers who are presenters. Factors such as the Internet, book, magazines, newspaper, Korean movie, Korean song, Korean language and time duration which they have experiences with Korean singers have influenced imitative behavior
