Circular Labs Are Resilient Labs Circularity in the lab is usually framed as a sustainability initiative. Reduce waste. Lower emissions. Do the right thing. All true. But it misses the bigger point. Circularity is not just about sustainability. It is about control. In...

What Actually Happens to Contaminants During Plasma Cleaning On plastic labware, residues aren’t just sitting inertly on the surface. Proteins adsorb and partially unfold. DNA can entangle and bind. Lipids spread into thin, persistent films. On top of that,...

How Hydroxyl Radicals Do the Heavy Lifting When people hear “plasma cleaning,” it can sound abstract. In reality, the work is done by very real chemistry, especially by hydroxyl radicals (•OH). In IonField’s atmospheric plasma process, generated from room air, several...
