Opis:
Background. Exposure to neurotoxicants is a world wide problem with significant health implications for child development. In spite of higher neurotoxicant exposures, many developing countries do not have established neuropsychological instruments. Objective. This study evalauted the adaptation and reliability of a computer and examiner administered Behavioral Assessment and Research System (BARS) that includes tests of motor speed and dexterity, attention, memory, and visuospatial coordination for use in Thailand. Material and methods. To assess test-retest and alternate form reliability, BARS was administered to 24 healthy, 6-8 year old urban Thai children during two testing sessions two weeks apart. A comparison group of 29 healthy, rural Thai children of similar age and sex completed the BARS as part of another study and comprised a comparison group. Results. Test-retest reliabilities for tests without alternate forms ranged from 0.41 to 0.77, but reliabilities were lower for tests with alternate forms (0.11 to 0.83). Paired t-tests revealed few significant differences in group performance between test administrations. Performance of urban Thai participants was compared to 29 rural Thai participants of similar age and sex. Parental education was significantly greater for urban vs. rural participants, resulting in signficant differences in performance on tests of motor speed. Conclusions. This study supports the use of BARS for epidemiologic studies of neurotoxicants in Thailand, but highlights the sensitivity of these tests to differences in parental education and the need for improved alternate test forms.
Wprowadzenie. Narażenie na substancje neurotoksyczne jest problemem ogólnoświatowym mającym istotne konsekwencje zdrowotne dla rozwoju dzieci. Wiele państw rozwijających się nie przygotowało narzędzi do badań neuropsychologicznych, mimo występowania dużego narażenia na substancje o działaniu neurotoksycznym. Cel badań. W badaniach przeprowadzonych przez ankieterów z zastosowaniem komputerów oceniono przystosowanie i wiarygodność testu Behavioral Assessment and Research System (BARS), który obejmuje badanie szybkości i zręczności motorycznej, uwagi, pamięci i koordynacji wzrokowej w celu zastosowania w Tajlandii. Materiał i metody. W celu oceny wiarygodności testu BARS metodą test-retest i zapisu alternatywnego poddano badaniu 24 zdrowych dzieci tajlandzkich w wieku 6-8 lat zamieszkujących w mieście. Ponowne badania przeprowadzono w odstępie 2 tygodni. Grupę porównawczą stanowiło 29 zdrowych dzieci mieszkających na wsi. Wyniki. Wiarygodność poszczególnych skal badana metodą test-retest rozciągała się od 0,41 do 0,77. Wiarygodność była niższa w przypadku metody zapisu alternatywnego (0,11 do 0,83). Test t dla zmiennych połączonych wykazał nieliczne różnice pomiędzy wynikami grupy w dwóch badaniach. Porównanie wyników uzyskanych przez dzieci tajlandzkie mieszkające w miastach i na wsi wykazało wpływ wykształcenia rodziców, które było znacząco wyższe u tych pierwszych. Wnioski. Badania potwierdzają użyteczność testu BARS do badań epidemiologicznych substancji neurotoksycznych w Tajlandii, ale uwydatniły czułość testu na różnice w wykształceniu rodziców i potrzebą polepszenia zapisu alternatywnego testu.

Background. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a ubiquitous disease. However, PDs prevalence in the population of agricultural communities lacks understanding and there has been no epidemiological study on the association between pesticides exposure factors and risk for PD. Objective. To investigate the potential association between organophosphate pesticides exposure and Parkinsonism by using a screening questionnaire in agricultural areas. Material and Methods. Ninety elderly people living in agricultural areas participated in a cross-sectional study conducted at Tambon Hua-Rua Health Promoting Hospital in April 2014. Screening questionnaires for Parkinson’s disease, Test-mate ChE (Model 400) for blood cholinesterase (ChE) levels of both blood enzymes erythrocyte cholinesterase (AChE), and plasma cholinesterase (PChE) were used as measurement tools. Descriptive statistics for frequencies and percentage distributions were used primarily to summarize and describe the data. Sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were calculated. Results. The age range of the participants was 50 to 59 years old, with an average age of 53.9+2.87 years. The majority of the participants were female (62.2%), 82.2% of respondents were farmers. Most of participants (76.7%) reported that they applied insecticides in their farms. Ninety persons participated and completed the 11-item questionnaire. Of these, 17 (18.9%) felt that they lost balance when turning or that they needed to take a few steps to turn right around and 16.7% of participants indicated that they felt the need to move slowly or stiffly. The study found the prevalence of abnormal AChE levels was 28.9% (95%CI=19.81-39.40) and 17.8% of PChE levels (95%CI=10.52-27.26). To predict Parkinsonism, AChE, and PChE level, with a cutoff score of 5 or higher there had to be a sensitivity of 0.31, specificity of 1.00, positive predictive value (PPV) of 1.00 and negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.78 for AChE. While PChE, the score value of 5 or more had a sensitivity of 0.19, specificity of 0.93, PPV of 0.38 and NPV of 0.84. Conclusion. This study described an association between pesticides exposure and Parkinsonism. The questionnaire appears to be useful for Thai agriculturists as a screening tool for Parkinsonism and cholinesterase levels regarding to pesticides exposure.

Artykuł analizuje dwa obszary dotyczące zatrudniania kobiet. Pierwszy z nich, związany z równouprawnieniem, zawiera porównanie wynagrodzeń kobiet i mężczyzn w omawianych państwach Azji Południowo-Wschodniej oraz przedstawienie krajowych uregulowań dotyczących zakazu dyskryminacji ze względu na płeć. Drugi rozwija kwestie związane z ochroną macierzyństwa, takie jak długość urlopu macierzyńskiego, zasiłek macierzyński i przerwy na karmienie podczas pracy.
This article presents international labour law standards on women’s employment and analyses their compliance in selected Southeast Asian countries: Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and Thailand. Issues concerning equal rights in employment and maternity protection were discussed. The compliance of national regulations with the acquis of international labour law, particularly with the standards developed in the conventions of the International Labour Organization, was assessed. This article considers two areas of women’s employment. The first, related to gender equality, compares women’s and men’s salaries in the Southeast Asian countries in question and presents national laws prohibiting gender discrimination. The second develops issues related to maternity protection, such as the length of maternity leave, maternity allowance and breastfeeding breaks during work.

Opis:
Escherichia coli producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) are antimicrobial-resistant Enterobacteriaceae important in the livestock production sector, especially dairy cows because these antimicrobial-resistant bacteria can be transferred to consumers via consumption. If antimicrobials are continually used in dairy farms, this may result in antimicrobial resistance. Therefore, investigation of antimicrobial resistance and finding new alternative methods for inhibiting ESBL-producing E. coli is essential. Hence, the aim of this study was to examine the ability of selected antimicrobials to inhibit E. coli ATCC 25922, control bacteria and ESBL-producing E. coli isolated from dairy farms. We also investigated the capacity of polyphenol extract from 10 varieties of medicinal plants to inhibit ESBL-producing E. coli using a broth microdilution method. It was found that control bacteria were susceptible to all antimicrobial agents, i.e., ampicillin, cefotaxime, ciprofloxacin, chloramphenicol, gentamycin, imipenem, nalidixic acid, tetracycline, and sulfamethoxazole/ trimethoprim. However, ESBL-producing E. coli exhibited both susceptibility and resistance to selected antimicrobials. The polyphenol extracted from Psidium guajava Linn at the lowest concentration was 4.5 mg/mL, which could inhibit control bacteria, but at the same concentration could not inhibit ESBL-producing E. coli. These phenomena indicated that ESBL-producing E. coli had both susceptibility and resistance to antimicrobials. Polyphenol, which could inhibit non-resistant E. coli, could not inhibit ESBL-producing E. coli.

Opis:
Background. Use of pesticides has been documented to lead to several adverse health effects. Farmers are likely to be exposed to pesticides through dermal exposure as a result of mixing, loading, and spraying. Organophosphate pesticides (OPs) are widely used in most of the agricultural areas throughout Thailand. OPs are cholinesterase inhibitors and blood cholinesterase activity is used as a biomarker of OP effects. Objective. This study aims to determine the association between blood cholinesterase activity and organophosphate pesticide residues on chili farmer’s hands and their adverse health effects. Materials and Methods. Ninety chili farmers directly involved with pesticide applications (e.g. mixing, loading, spraying) were recruited and were interviewed face to face. Both enzymes, erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and plasma cholinesterase (PChE), were tested with the EQM Test-mate Cholinesterase Test System (Model 400). Hand wipe samples were used for collecting residues on both hands and OP residues for chlorpyrifos and profenofos were quantified using gas chromatography equipped with a flame photometric detector (GC-FPD). Results. The average activity (±SD) of AChE and PChE was 2.73 (±0.88) and 1.58 (±0.56) U/mL, respectively. About 80.0% of the participants had detectable OP residues on hands. The median residues of chlorpyrifos and profenofos were found to be 0.02 and 0.03 mg/kg/two hands, respectively. Half of participants reported having some acute health symptoms within 48 hours after applying pesticides. When adjusted for gender, number of years working in chili farming, and frequency of pesticide use, AChE activity (Adjusted OR = 0.03, 95%CI: 0.01-0.13) and detected OP residues on hands (Adjusted OR = 0.15, 95%CI: 0.02-0.95) were significantly associated with having health effects, but no significant association was found in PChE activity (Adjusted OR = 2.09, 95%CI: 0.63-6.99). Conclusions. This study suggests that regular monitoring for blood cholinesterase and effective interventions to reduce pesticide exposure to prevent health effects should be provided to chili farmers.

The aim of this study was to check out the impact that is casted by information intensive services on social sustainability performance and the impact of supply chain integration on social sustainability performance as well. The study took industry 4.0 implementation as a mediator to know the enhancement of that it causes with the impacts of information intensive services and supply chain integration on social sustainability performance. The study took a sample from Thailand's Pharmaceutical Industry and 306 individuals were selected in total. Moreover, the study analyzed the data and found out that the impact of information intensive services on social sustainability performance is significant and the impact of supply chain integration on social sustainability performance is significant as well. The study validated that industry 4.0 implementation is a significant mediator. The study has significance for the theoretical, practical and policy making sector as to practically implement information intensive services and supply chain integration in industries around the globe to enhance social sustainability performance. The study is however, short in its sector and sample selection.
Celem tego badania było sprawdzenie wpływu usług intensywnie korzystających z informacji na wyniki w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju społecznego oraz wpływ integracji łańcucha dostaw na wyniki w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju społecznego. W badaniu wykorzystano implementację Przemysłu 4.0 jako mediatora, aby dowiedzieć się, jakie ulepszenie to powoduje wraz z wpływem usług intensywnie wykorzystujących informacje i integracji łańcucha dostaw na wyniki w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju społecznego. W badaniu pobrano próbkę z tajlandzkiego przemysłu farmaceutycznego i w sumie wybrano 306 osób. Ponadto w badaniu przeanalizowano dane i stwierdzono, że wpływ usług intensywnie wykorzystujących informacje na wyniki w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju społecznego jest znaczący, a wpływ integracji łańcucha dostaw na wyniki w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju społecznego jest również znaczący. Badanie potwierdziło, że wdrożenie przemysłu 4.0 jest znaczącym mediatorem. Badanie ma znaczenie dla sektora teoretycznego, praktycznego i kształtowania polityki w celu praktycznego wdrożenia usług wymagających dużej ilości informacji i integracji łańcucha dostaw w branżach na całym świecie w celu poprawy wyników w zakresie zrównoważonego rozwoju społecznego. Badanie jest jednak krótkie w swoim sektorze i doborze próby.

Objective. This study examined associations between socio-demographic characteristics and knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) related to COVID-19 among healthcare workers in Bangkok, Thailand. Materials and methods. A cross-sectional online survey was distributed among healthcare workers in Bangkok, Thailand from July - August 2021. Results. A total of 637 responses were received. Most participants were clinical workers (68.4%), and nearly half (47.3%) had been at risk of infection with COVID-19 (ever screening test). Binary logistic regression analysis found associations between high knowledge scores and the 26–35-year age group (OR=1.776-1.562, 95%CI 1.021–2.853), having a bachelor’s degree or higher (OR=1.672, 95%CI 1.058–2.644), and clinical workers (OR=1.784, 95CI% 1.188–2.678). The 36 year and above age group was associated with higher attitude scores (OR=2.406, 95%CI 1.567–3.695). Higher practice scores were associated with females (OR=1.913, 95%CI 1.057–3.464), and clinical workers (OR=1.903, 95CI% 1.170–3.095). Correlation analysis found a positive correlation between practice scores and knowledge (r=0.322, p <0.001) and attitudes (r=0.263, p <0.001). Conclusion. Although healthcare workers demonstrated overall high knowledge, attitude, and practice scores, this study identified several factors that influence KAP. This study can guide public health strategies regarding healthcare workers during the third wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in Thailand.

Opis:
There is a need for a transnational framework that would redefine labour trafficking in terms of debt bondage and challenge the privileges of legal contracts at the expense of migrant workers’ human and labour rights. We argue that anti-trafficking legislation in the US and Thailand is expansive in definition, but its application is too restrictive to deliver justice to the victims. The debt-labour industry easily becomes a form of transnational labour trafficking. We examine Thailand as an origin and destination country for labour trafficking through two cases involving the US and Thailand though a Marxist and liberal analysis that considers critical race theory. The limitations in which these cases could not achieve full justice represent the challenges for transnational labour rights for noncitizen migrant workers. We examine the Global Horizons agricultural labour case, 2002–2012, and Thailand’s fishing sector, which led to its Tier 3 ranking in the 2014 Trafficking in Persons Report. This report was used in international campaigns to pressurise corporate industries and retailers to change their code of conduct, necessitating considerations of the effectiveness of supply chain responsibility.

This report was used in international campaigns to pressurise corporate industries and retailers to change their code of conduct, necessitating considerations of the effectiveness of supply chain responsibility.   Zarówno amerykańskie, jak i tajskie przypadki łamania praw pracowniczych i praw człowieka wykorzystywanych do pracy przymusowej opierają się na systemie związania długiem (debt bondage). Można wręcz powiedzieć, że oparty na umowach oraz czasowych wizach migracyjnych do pracy amerykański system imigracyjny jest częścią procederu handlu ludźmi do pracy przymusowej. Stąd istnieje potrzeba stworzenia ponadnarodowych ram, które zdefiniowałyby na nowo handel ludźmi do pracy przymusowej, uznając za jego element również związanie długiem (czy też inaczej niewolę za długi). Podważyłoby to legalność zawieranych obecnie umów naruszających prawa człowieka i prawa pracownicze osób migrujących. Przepisy dotyczące zwalczania handlu ludźmi w USA i Tajlandii są obszerne, ale ich stosowanie jest zbyt restrykcyjne i nie pozwala zagwarantować pokrzywdzonym poczucia sprawiedliwości. Związanie długiem dość łatwo jest wykorzystywane w międzynarodowym handlu ludźmi do pracy przymusowej. Autorzy artykułu badaniu poddali Tajlandię jako kraj pochodzenia i kraj docelowy handlu ludźmi. Przy wykorzystaniu analizy marksistowskiej i liberalnej, a zatem uwzględniając krytyczną teorię rasy, zbadali dwie sprawy dotyczące Stanów Zjednoczonych i Tajlandii. Zidentyfikowane w nich ograniczenia utrudniające wymierzenie sprawiedliwości stanowią wyzwanie dla transgranicznych praw pracowniczych pracowników migrujących. Są to sprawy dotyczące wykorzystania do pracy w rolnictwie przez Global Horizons w latach 2002–2012 oraz w tajlandzkim sektorze rybołówstwa, który w raporcie Trafficking in Persons z 2014 roku został sklasyfikowany w trzecim, najniższym poziomie ochrony (Tier 3). Raport ten został wykorzystany w międzynarodowych kampaniach mających na celu wywarcie presji na globalne korporacje i sprzedawców detalicznych, aby zmienili sposób postępowania i zastanowili się nad skutecznością oraz swoją odpowiedzialnością w ramach łańcucha dostaw.

Thailand hosts over 50 percent of the world’s top OEM automotive parts suppliers and additionally is home to over 2,400 Tier 1-3 manufacturers and suppliers. Given the significance of these numbers and Thailand’s leading ranking and contribution to the global automotive industry, research was undertaken to determine how manufacturing clusters and innovation capability effect competitive advantage as it relates to automotive production part management. Multiple objectives were established which included the study of the effects and overall influences of the various variables on competitive advantage as well as the development of a structural equation model (SEM) to define how innovation and manufacturing clustering affects the competitive advantage within the Thai automotive parts molding sector. Quantitative methods analysis was conducted on the data from 240 automotive production and components suppliers’ questionnaires collected from industry managers with the research results partially obtained from the analysis by use of (PLS)-graph. Qualitative research was also obtained by use of purposive sampling from in-depth interviews from ten senior managers. The results obtained indicated that clusters and innovation capability has a significant and positive effect on competitive advantage. Thus, the findings from the research illustrate that if an organization focuses on clusters, there will be a knock-on effect within the automotive parts groups leading to the increase in innovation capability, which creates a greater competitive advantage, not only for the enterprises, but also for Thai society as well.

Opis:
The purposes of this study are to investigate a range of perceptions towards entrepreneurial intention (EI), and to compare those perceptions between Poland and Thailand. Poland and Thailand are chosen to analyze since both countries have similar aspects in term of entrepreneurial intentions rate, and are in efficiency-driven economy. EI is one of the most significant predictor of business creation. Based on Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) data in 2015, combined 5,000 samples from Poland (n=2,000) and Thailand (n=3,000) are analyzed by logistic regression to investigate the effect of perceptions on EI. Independent variables include individual’s perceived self-efficiency, the ability to recognize business opportunities, entrepreneurial network, fear of failure as well as a range of socio-cultural perceptions. The results show that perceptions of self efficacy, opportunity recognition, and entrepreneurial networking have significant effect on EI in both countries. Interestingly, the impact of fear of failure is found to influence on EI for Poland, but not for Thailand. On the one hand, high level of status and public media attention on successful entrepreneurs are found to influence on EI for Thailand, but not for Poland.
Celem badania jest analiza szeregu spostrzeżeń na temat intencji przedsiębiorcy (EI) oraz porównanie tych spostrzeżeń między Polską a Tajlandią. Polska i Tajlandia zostały wybrane do analizy, ponieważ oba kraje są podobne pod względem stopy przedsiębiorczości i są w gospodarce opartej na wydajności. EI jest jednym z najważniejszych predyktorów tworzenia działalności gospodarczej. W oparciu o dane z 2015 r. pochodzące z Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM), w celu zbadania wpływu postrzegania EI, metodą regresji logistycznej łącznie przeanalizowano 5000 próbek: z Polski (n = 2000) i Tajlandii (n = 3000). Zmienne niezależne obejmują postrzeganą przez jednostkę samoocenę, umiejętność rozpoznawania możliwości biznesowych, sieć przedsiębiorczości, strach przed niepowodzeniem, a także szereg percepcji społeczno-kulturowych. Wyniki pokazują, że postrzeganie samooceny, rozpoznawanie szans i sieci przedsiębiorczości mają znaczący wpływ na EI w obu krajach. Co ciekawe, badania wykazały, że wpływ strachu przed porażką ma wpływ na EI w przypadku Polski, ale nie Tajlandii. Z kolei wysoki poziom statusu i uwaga mediów publicznych na odnoszących sukcesy przedsiębiorców mają wpływ EI w Tajlandii, ale nie w Polsce.

Opis:
Thailand had a decline in traffic fatalities even though the estimate is only approximate. This study aims to examine the factors related to the motorcycling riding performance of 69 motorcyclists aged 60 and older in Khi Lek Subdistrict, Muang District, Ubon Ratchathani Province. Data were collected from interviews on driving behavior with the participants and their driving performance from the tests modeled on the Thai driving license test. Fisher’s Exact Test was used to analyze the data. The results showed that the elderly exhibited good motorcycle driving behavior (91.30 %); however, their riding ability was at the level of “need to be improved” (85.51%). They showed poor performance on the reflex test (72.46%) and the depth perception test (69.57%). The tests the participants passed were the color blindness test (100%) and the peripheral vision test (61.82%). This study also found that the average daily motorcycle driving distance (p-value = 0.045) and motorcycle driving experience (p-value = 0.036) of the older motorcycle riders were determined to be statistically significant factors. The findings are useful for responsible organizations to decide on road safety policies to lower the risks of accidents involving elderly motorcycle riders in Thailand. They could consider revoking lifetime driver’s licenses, providing training to promote safe driving techniques, and taking into account how the elderly’s riding performance is correlated to their average daily driving distance and driving experience.

Opis:
An isolated posterior cervical vertebra of a sauropod discovered at Phu Dan Ma (Kalasin Province, northeastern Thailand) is the first informative postcranial specimen from the Phu Kradung Formation, a Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous continental unit. The vertebra is referred to the family Mamenchisauridae, otherwise mainly known from China. In addition, spatulate teeth from the same formation and a mid−dorsal vertebra from the Upper Jurassic Khlong Min Formation of southern Thailand are reassigned to this family. The occurrence of mamenchisaurids in the earliest Cretaceous of Thailand supports a hypothesis of geographical isolation of Central, Eastern, and Southeast Asia during the Late Jurassic. It also suggests that the main changes in their dinosaur assemblages occurred during the Early Cretaceous, rather than at the Jurassic–Cretaceous boundary.

Opis:
Southern Thailand, located on the thick and stable Sibumasu continental block, is known for its high heat flow despite lacking volcanic activity (Sautter et al., 2017). This study employs the Curie Point Depth (CPD) calculation, an indirect method, to evaluate land heat flow (e.g., Hsieh et al., 2014; Li et al., 2017; Qudsi, 2019). By analyzing airborne magnetic data and utilizing spectral analysis, the study generates CPD, thermal gradient, and heat flow maps for southern Thailand (e.g., Carrillo-de la Cruz et al., 2020; Núñez Demarco et al., 2021). The findings reveal heat flow values ranging from 61.54 mW/m² to 154.25 mW/m², with an average of 90.36 mW/m², surpassing the typical heat flow of 65 mW/m² for continental crust (Turcotte & Schubert, 2002). The study identifies five distinct zones characterized by higher heat flow compared to the surrounding areas: the Ranong fault zone (RF), Khlong Marui fault zone (KMF), coastline of Surat Thani and Nakhon Si Thammarat, Trang and Satun zone, and the Bentong-Roab suture (BRS). The RF and KMF represent active strike-slip faults that penetrate the continental crust into the upper mantle (Kanjanapayont et al., 2012; Sautter et al., 2017), while the BRS denotes a weak zone marking the suture between Sibumasu and Indochina terranes (Metcalfe, 2000), potentially extending into the mantle. The elevated heat flow observed along the coastline of Surat Thani and Nakhon Si Thammarat, as well as in the Trang and Satun zone, may be influenced by burial faults or fractures. Interpretation with P-wave tomography suggests a possible high heat mantle anomaly under southern Thailand (Huang et al., 2015). These initial findings suggest that the high heat flow in the thick and stable continental crust of Sibumasu originates from mantle upwelling caused by surrounding subducted plates under Eurasia. These heat sources manifest through weak zones in extensional regimes such as the RF, KMF, and possible undefined burial faults or fractures, as well as the BRS. The study provides preliminary understanding of present-day geodynamics of the Sibumasu block and its potential implications for mineral resources, petroleum exploration, geothermal energy, and carbon capture and storage.

Opis:
The geotectonic divisions, which are distributed as narrow zones in the north-south direction, are clear in the northern Thailand, but not clearly recognized in the Central Thailand. The Chao Phraya Plain, which occupies the central part of Thailand, is broadly covered with Quaternary sediments. Therefore, the basement rocks of the Paleozoic and Mesozoic are scattered in the form of residual mounds, and due to the lack of stratigraphic and age-determination data, the geological origin of these rocks have been not sufficiently discussed. In this presentation, we will report the results of a study on the geological belongings of bedded chert sporadically exposed in the Chao Phraya Plain, Central Thailand by the microfossil age and geochemical characteristics. The study areas are Thung Saliam (TS) (50 km northwest of Sukhothai) in the northern part of the plain and the Nakorn Sawan–Uthai Thani (NS-UT) area in the central part of the plain. About 20 outcrops of chert were surveyed in both areas. The cherts are distributed in scattered, and most of the cherts are recrystallized and are considered to have undergone contact metamorphism. Chert of the TS is well-bedded with red and the direct contact relationship is unknown, but tuff and limestone (marble) are exposed around it. Chert of the NSUT is also well-bedded with red, black, gray and milky white in color. Altered slatey shale and sandstone accompany the chert and form monadnocks. These cherts might be categorized into typical pelagic cherts because they contain radiolarian tests and sponge spicules in a matrix consisting of very fine clay minerals and microcrystalline quartz, and do not contain coarse-grained terrigenous materials. Sashida & Nakornsuri (1999) reported the occurrence of Pseudoalbaillella simplex, Ruzencevispongus sp., and so on from the TS chert and they assigned their age to Wolfcampian. Whereas, Saesaengseerung et al. (2007) report radiolarian occurrence of the Ps. loemntaria Assemblage (Artinskian) and Follicucullus scholasticus Assemblage (Capitanian-Wuchiapingian) from the NS-UT chert. Whole-rock chemical analysis was performed on three sections their ages were determined by radiolarians. In the Chondrite-normalized REE pattern, TS chert indicates negative anomaly of Ce, and NS-UT chert shows relatively flat and profile of the downward-sloping in the LREE. The geological age of the study sections and their REE patterns are similar to those observed in the Sa Kaeo area in southeastern Thailand. The Permian bedded cherts exposed in TS and NS-UT areas are often accompanied by thin layers of fine-grained siliciclastics and tuff, which are weakly metamorphosed and foliated. Since the chert itself has a relatively thin thickness (several meters to 10–20 m) in each outcrop, and basically has a north-south strike. These cherts occurrence and lithofacies of both areas are similar and indicate that cherts of both areas are geologically comparable as pointed out by Ueno et al. (2012). Ueno et al. (2012) clarified that the central part of Thailand, where the geotectonic division was unclear, can be divided into three geotectonic units from west to east: Sibumasu Block, Sukothai Zone and Indochin Block. However, the origin of the Permian chert has not been clarified. Paleozoic and Mesozoic cherts distributed in Thailand remind us bedded cherts deposited in the Paleo-Tethys from the Devonian to the Triassic. However, no cherts other than the Permian have been reported in the central part of mainland Thailand. Instead of the Paleo-Tethys chert, the Sa Kaeo-Chanthaburi suture and the Nan-Uttaradit suture are well-known as geological units containing Permian chert in southeastern Thailand. These sutures have been understood as a closed remnant of the Permian to Triassic back-arc basin stretched between the Indochina Block and the Sukhothai Arc. The fact that the Permian cherts of the central plain are distributed in the eastern part of the Sukhothai Zone and near Indochina Block suggests that these Permian cherts comparable to the Permian chert of the Sa Kaeo-Chanthaburi Suture. In addition to the geological evidence, the geochemical features of the Permian chert represented by the REE pattern are similar to those of the Permian chert in the Sa Keo area. Line of evidence mentioned above suggests that the Permian bedded chert distributed the central Thailand (TS and NS-UT areas) have originated to the Permian chert of the Sa Kae-Chanthaburi or Nan-Uttaradit sutures which is a remnant of backarc basin.
