Plasma separation card (HemaSep L) in quantitative LC MS/MS amino acids analysis

Amino acids (AAs) are essential building blocks of every known life, including humans. They play an important role in organism homeostasis, so their circulated-free concentration should be carefully monitored. The study conducted by the independent laboratory Masdiag presents the use of Ahlstrom's plasma separation cards (HemaSep-L) for free amino acid (AA) analysis.

Ahlstrom-Munksjö's FluoroFree® papers support movement away from traditional grease-resistance treatments, while meeting science-based measurements

In recent years, there has been a movement to develop more sustainable packaging solutions for consumers and brand owners. One specific trend in this movement has been the paper industry’s voluntary movement away from the use of certain chemicals, which enable grease-resistance in food packaging. Ahlstrom-Munksjö has been the marketplace leader in this effort.

Healthy environments create well-being societies

Noise, light, and chemical pollution are just some of the health-damaging pollutants, accumulating and increasing on our planet at an unprecedented rate. According to the WHO, over 13 million deaths occur yearly due to preventable environmental causes. When the climate crisis is also a health crisis, it’s essential to understand that keeping humans and the planet healthy is a duo task.
