From blood analysis to the transportation of organs
for donation
ABS (acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) resin is used for the housing of a
state-of-the-art blood analyser because of its proven performance in applications
that require strength, durability and a high-gloss surface to help ensure
cleanliness in hospital settings. The hand-held system provides clinicians
with a portable, nearly instantaneous analyser that requires just two drops
of whole blood to provide a wide range of tests needed in medical diagnoses.
Styrene-based boxes also help to save lives by protecting organs while they
are being transported for donation.
In myriad other medical applications, styrenic plastic tools provide chemical
resistance, transparency and toughness to promote safety and protect against
contamination and patient infection in the laboratory and day-to-day use.
