High-speed Organic Acid Analysis Column: Shim-pack Fast-OA
Quick and easy monitoring of culture or fermentation processes
In the fields of fermented food production and bio-industry, organic acid metabolites are monitored to control the activity of yeast or bacteria. The quantity of organic acids needs to be checked and the production environment adjusted accordingly in order to improve production and quality control, and these checks must be carried out in a timely manner. The Shim-pack Fast-OA is a column for the high-speed analysis of organic acids. It can separate multiple organic acids in a short time and supports real-time monitoring of their concentration levels.

Biodegradable Plastics
In order to reduce plastic waste, the development of eco-friendly alternative materials is being promoted. As an alternative, biomass plastics and biodegradable plastics are becoming more widely available. Biodegradable Plastics are plastics that are decomposed into low-molecular compounds by microorganisms in the environment. So they break down easily in nature, which is an opposite characteristic of petroleum-based plastics.
