PRODUCTS

  • BioBLU Single-Use Bioreactors combine the advantages of single-use technology with the trusted performance of stirred-tank design. Different variants are suitable for cell culture and microbial fermentation in R&D and clinical and commercial manufacturing. BioBLU Single-Use Bioreactors are compatible Eppendorf bioprocess controllers.

  • The MEQ6-45CSP1 is a passive MMIC equalizer CSP ideal for compensating for low pass filtering effects in RF/microwave and high speed digital systems. 

  • When applied to plant influents, hydrogen peroxide destroys dissolved and/or total sulfide that otherwise scavenges Fe3+ added for CEPT and/or chemical phosphorus removal from wastewater. The foundational aspect of this PRI-TECH application (called PRI-CEPT) is that one lb of total sulfide theoretically consumes 3.5 lbs Fe3+ and thus represents an additional cost of $2 – 3 per lb influent sulfide.

  • In today’s complex clinical research landscape, sponsors and CROs face numerous challenges that can impact study timelines, costs, and data quality. The iMednet platform offers innovative solutions to address these critical issues.

  • Building on the capabilities of the NP-RD10A benchtop tablet press (discussed in our previous article on USP <1062>), our services are further enhanced by the integration of the Presster™ compaction emulator. This state-of-the-art tool is designed to replicate the compaction dynamics of production tablet presses in a laboratory setting. It allows for tangible fine-tuning of the compression cycle, providing an accurate depiction of how a tablting formulation will behave under commercial manufacturing conditions. Using the Presster, Natoli Scientific can simulate full-scale production, permitting us to forecast problems before they escalate to costly production delays. Our experts can optimize the tablet design for our clients, ensuring a smooth transition from laboratory to production while adhering to the rigorous standards set by the industry including the current USP <1062> chapter.

Catalysts

Catalysts work by changing the structure of a molecule or by bonding to reactant molecules causing them to combine, react, and release a product or energy.  For example, a catalyst is required in order for oxygen and hydrogen to bond, combine and produce water.

Catalysts increase the rate of chemical reactions. Unlike a reagent that gets consumed as apart of the chemical reaction, catalysts do not get consumed in the reaction. They can actually participate in multiple chemical transformations.Catalysts can be organic, synthetic or metal.

All processes need energy to take place. Processes require a very high level of energy in order to spark or start if a catalyst isn’t present.  When a catalyst is present the amount of energy required to spark the reaction is lowered and that makes the reaction happen faster and more efficiently.

Catalytic effects vary depending on other substances present that are a part of the chemical reactions. There are certain substances that can inhibit the effectiveness of a catalyst like poisons, and other substances that promote or increase the effect of the catalyst.  Inhibitors or negative catalysts are very important in medicine to treat mental illnesses, high blood pressure, cancer and many other diseases.

Catalysts are often used to help crack, or split, larger organic molecules like hydrocarbons into simpler molecules. It does this by breaking carbon-carbon bonds. The speed of the splitting process depends heavily on what specific catalyst is used and the temperature.  Applications of this technology include oil and petrochemical industries.
