Concerned about Elemental Selenium?

Elemental Selenium
When evaluating the selenium (Se) speciation at a site, sometimes things don't add up - that is, the sum of detected Se species might be significantly lower than the associated dissolved Se result. While a low mass balance could be caused by various factors, it often signifies that unanticipated forms of Se are present. To aid clients in identifying what this "missing" Se component consists of, we're happy to announce that BAL is now actively working on establishing new methods to support elemental selenium analysis!

Micronutrients: An Important Consideration for Biopharmaceutical Quality

In the biopharmaceutical industry, optimizing bioreactor cellular health and titer quality requires accounting for micronutrients as well as contaminants; too little or too much can have a negative impact. Without meticulous control of raw materials and media components, a small deviation in micronutrients can lead to an out-of-specification (OOS) event, low titer quality, and a slow-down or halt of drug production. Quality aspects to support all biopharmaceutical product lines concerning optimizing micronutrients and controlling contaminants can be complex, but Brooks Applied Labs is here to help.
