Nowadays, anthocyanins have become an interesting topic of much scientific research and act as potential sources of eco-friendly natural food dyes and their helpful effects on human health.. The purpose of the present article was to apply conventional extraction methods of pigments from Butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea ***) in Southern Vietnam were tested to extract anthocyanins. The effects of various factors, including the solvent concentration, extraction time, temperature, and solvent/material ratio on the extraction total anthocyanins from Butterfly pea were investigated. In this study, the concentration of monomeric anthocyanins was completed by the spectrophotometry pH differential *** highest recovered anthocyanin level was achieved with 50 % ethanol (143.49 mg/L), while the lowest one was obtained with water (90.9 mg/L). The extraction yield was significantly affected by temperature and the excellent condition was 60°C. The extraction yield raised with increasing of solvent/material ratio until equilibrium has arrived at the optimal ratio of 25:1 (mL/g). The extraction yield increased first and then decreased with an extension in time values.

Previous studies proved that in addition to spatial characteristics function in extracting roughness information, there is potential roughness dependability across changes in the temporal mechanisms of textured surfaces. In the present study, we created temporal coding mechanism by converting fine spatial structure surface into a temporal drifting pattern. We proposed that regular spatial structure of gratings with variation of temporal mechanism have different influence toward roughness perception. Results showed massive individual differences of roughness perception between subjects, suggesting that a combination of spatial and temporal mechanisms accounts for perceptual judgments of roughness. We suggest that visual roughness judgment was determined by spatial in grating stimulation, and improvement is needed in spatial components before temporal coding of visual roughness can be declared.

Facing the proliferation of unnatural fragrance personal care products by their convenience and affordability. However, facing the immediate benefits is the insecurity of prolonged exposure to odors, the vast majority of which may exceed the allowable or unknown uses. Therefore, we research the production process of shampoos derived from natural essential oils. In this study, we use lemongrass oil originating from Tan Phu Dong commune, Tien Giang province to conduct steam distillation with optimum efficiency of 0.29%. The general formula for making a shampoo product is based on basic factors such as detergent, humectant, foaming agent, etc. The product evaluation is based on the results of the assessment of foaming ability, degree foam stability, and product stability under different storage conditions. Results showed that shampoo products derived from lemongrass oil gave good evaluation results, scalable, and developed to conduct commercialization.

Coconut oil is considered the active ingredient as a moisturizer used by many people in tropical regions. At the same time, coconut oil can improve the symptoms of skin disorders by moisturizing and soothing the skin. A body washes formula that contains coconut oil based on the saponification process is formulated through an appropriate content survey. The combination of auxiliary substances such as detergent, foaming agent, moisturizing agent, preservative was also conducted to evaluate different concentrations. Products are assessed and visually observed for appearance, viscosity, pH value, stability, and durability when stored. The body wash formula was found to be white and pearl luster was visually observed. Products using 20% crude soap content, 5% detergent (SLES), 3% glycerin, etc. have all been tested to show good physico-chemical properties in terms of pH value and viscosity, as well as no irritation, upon skin contact. Research shows that coconut oil body wash formulas with good physico-chemical properties can be developed into new body wash cosmetic products.

In order to enhance the use of coconut oil through its application in personal care products, shampoos formulated with simple soap act as the leading detergent with a 20% content and ingredients other commercial components such as Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate, Plantacare 2000, Glycerin, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, etc. A combination of 20% crude soap and a synthetic active substance synthesizing sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) 5% make up the excellent shampoo recipe with cleansing feature. Ingredients of complementary detergents, moisturizers, and smoothing softeners are supplemented with appropriate levels to improve raw soap's disadvantages. Foamability and foam durability are selected targets to examine the influence of ingredients in the formula. The sensory elements of the product reach the set goals with an average evaluation score of about 4/5. Thereby, shampoo products penetrate the cosmetic market and attract many consumers in the future.

Cassava peel holds an abundance of nutrients that could be utilized as fertilizer in agriculture. However, high cellulose contents make it hard for organic digestion, thus slow down the absorption for plants. In this study, we investigate microorganisms for effective cellulose degradation of cassava peel waste collected directly from Hung Duy Tapioca Starch Factory in Tay Ninh Province, Viet Nam. Experiments evaluate the decrease of mass cassava peel of the two groups of Bacillus - Aspergillus and positive control strains such as Neurospora Crassa. The sample was tested on Czapek - Dox liquid culture medium, a method of assessing the dry mass difference of samples used to assess biodegradability in 28 days. Besides, tests to assess the production of products and environmental parameters such as glucose and pH were recorded. Initial results showed that the combination of Bacillus and Aspergillus provides the highest glucose concentration, reached 16.52 mg/ml and digests 53% of the cassava mass compared with a combination of Neurospora Crassa reached 11.45 mg/ml and 46% of the cassava mass. Comparison results also showed that the action potential of microorganisms was stronger when combined and provided evidence that the formation of combinations of microorganisms would work well in probiotics, which brings better environmental treatment efficiency.

One of the most challenging issues associated with the use of artificial scent is the harmful effects not always visible to the eyes. To meet the growing consumer demand for the natural active ingredients of household products, the team looked for new, rich ingredients that have ample amount of compound that create scents and exhibit high antibacterial activities. The main objective of this study was to formulate a diffused product by replacing the harmful synthetic ingredients with safe natural ingredients. After applying the hydrodistillation method for the extraction process, lemongrass essential oil obtained with optimum efficiency of 0.29%. The process and formula of diffused products are optimized through the process of influencing parameters such as platform oil, emulsifier, solvent, Tween 80 and essential oil. The results indicate that lemongrass essential oil can be used as an eco-friendly alternative, which can add up the aromatic and deodorizing properties to the synthesized fragrance. The research into the application of lemongrass essential oils in many products will provide insight into the potential development of essential oils in the field of home care products.

In this paper, the Response Surface Methodology (RSM), in conjunction with Central Composite Design (CCD), was used to optimize the extraction of anthocyanins from Butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea ***) cultivated in Southern Vietnam. The effect of extraction temperatures of solvent ethanol (50-70 °C), duration of extraction (40-50 min) and solid-liquid ratios (20:1–30:1) was measured as independent variables on the total extraction anthocyanins in the response function. The highest anthocyanin content of 132.756 mg/L of butterfly pea anthocyanin was collected at the solid liquid ratio of 23:1, extraction time of 46 min, and temperature 60.6°C. Butterfly pea anthocyanins yield detailed significant correlation with high F values, low P values (<0.0001), and desirable determination coefficient (R2 = 0.9994).
