    . The crude extracts were tested for antimicrobial aaeahaey against twenty clinical and environmental isolates of P. insidiosum by determination of their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values by agar well diffusion and disc diffusion assays... Andrographis paniculata and Clausena harmandiana root extracts exhibited inhibitory activity against all isolates at 5 mg/ml and 10 mg/ml, respectively. Results from the agar well diffusion and disc diffusion assays also indicated that the extracts from

    Effect of the Waste Heat Recovery System to Buoyancy and Momentum Flux of Combustion Stack in the Cement Industry
    (2019) Jutarat Keawboonchu; Wissawa Malakan; Wisit Thongkum; Sarawut Thepanondh; Mahidol University. Faculty of Public health. Department of Sanitary Engineering
    Buoyancy and momentum fluxes are important parameters to determine the plume rise which is related to the ability to dilute air pollutants emitted from combustion stack sources. The change of temperature due to waste heat recovery directly affects these fluxes. This study analyzed buoyancy and momentum fluxes and evaluated the ground level concentration of PM-10 prior and after implementation of waste heat recovery in the area surrounding one of the largest cement production plants in Thailand. The results showed that the ambient temperature was the significant parameter affecting buoyancy and momentum fluxes. The buoyancy flux was found to be the dominant force to the rise of plume for both scenarios. There were no differences in the predicted PM-10 ground level concentrations at receptorsaround the cement plant for the model simulation under two scenarios. Therefore, it was concluded that decreasing of stack gas exit temperature does not affect the dispersion of air pollutants in the cement industry

    Combining electrochemical sensors with miniaturized sample preparation for rapid detection in clinical samples
    (2014-11-21) Natinan Bunyakul; Antje J. Baeumner; Mahidol University. Faculty of Medical Technology. Department of Clinical Chemistry
    Clinical analyses benefit world-wide from rapid and reliable diagnostics tests. New tests are sought with greatest demand not only for new analytes, but also to reduce costs, complexity and lengthy analysis times of current techniques. Among the myriad of possibilities available today to develop new test systems, amperometric biosensors are prominent players-best represented by the ubiquitous amperometric-based glucose sensors. Electrochemical approaches in general require little and often enough only simple hardware components, are rugged and yet provide low limits of detection. They thus offer many of the desirable attributes for point-of-care/point-of-need tests. This review focuses on investigating the important integration of sample preparation with (primarily electrochemical) biosensors. Sample clean up requirements, miniaturized sample preparation strategies, and their potential integration with sensors will be discussed, focusing on clinical sample analyses.

    Sound absorption capacity of Oil Palm Frond Fiberboard with different finishing
    (2010-04) Tanasri Sihabut; Nikhom Laemsak; Mahidol University. Faculty of Environment and Natural Resource Studies
    This research studied primarily the sound absorption of oil palm frond fiberboard with different finishing, i.e. rough, screen and perforated surfaces. All boards confirmed that the higher the frequencies, the better the sound absorption coefficients. Although the density of the samples with rough surface was the lowest, their sound absorption capacity was the highest at every measured octave band frequencies. Perforated samples showed the better sound absorption coefficients than the ones with screen surface. When comparing their sound absorption coefficients with those of the sound absorbing materials in commercial use, oil palm frond fiberboards generally showed a better sound absorption capacity.
