Acetylation of tropical hardwood species from forest plantations in Costa Rica: an FTIR spectroscopic analysis
(2020)Acetylation of softwoods has been largely investigated to increase the dimensional stability and biological resistance of wood. However, the knowledge of this technology has not been applied to tropical hardwood species ... -
Bar-HRM for Species Confirmation of Native Plants Used in Forest Restoration in Northern Thailand
(2022)Plant species confirmation is a crucial step in using native plant species for forest restoration. To enhance this, a hybrid method of DNA barcoding and high-resolution melting analysis (Bar-HRM) was investigated in this ... -
Furfurylation of tropical wood species with and without silver nanoparticles: Part I: Analysis with confocal laser scanning microscopy and FTIR spectroscopy
(2021)This work focused on the upgrading of non-durable tropical wood species originating from fast-growing plantations of Costa Rica. Modification of such tropical woods with furfuryl alcohol, although has not been broadly ... -
Furfurylation of tropical wood species with and without silver nanoparticles: Part II: Evaluation of wood properties
(2021)The purpose of the work was to assess the combined effect of furfurylation, along with the addition of silver nanoparticles (NPsAg), on the thermal stability, density, water absorption, hardness and biological durability ... -
The identification of several dipterocarpaceae and fagaceae trees by barcode dna coupled with high-resolution melting analysis
(2021)The loss of forests is a major environmental, social, and economic problem. The disappear-ance has been occurring to an extreme degree in many parts of Southeast Asia, including Thailand. Logging and clearing of forests ... -
The nutritional value of lipids in various tropical aquatic animals from rice-fish farming systems in northeast Thailand
(2010)Knowledge on the lipid compositions of tropical freshwater aquatic animals is limited despite their importance in the human diet and the health-related benefits of fish lipids. This study examines the lipid content and ...
