CITGO Lubricants’ Post

it is just our DNA.

Check it out: our co-founder and chief scientific officer Ethan Weiss joined Brad Loncar and BiotechTV to chat all things Marea, the risk of remnant cholesterol and how we are combining human genetics and adipose biology to develop novel therapies for patients at risk for heart attacks even after controlling classical risk factors such as #obesity and elevated LDL #cholesterol. Listen below. 

Further endorsing our recent publication on limitation of transient elastography in LDLT setting, highlighting this case which I saw last week: 54 yrs lady, donated right lobe of liver 10 yrs back, gets a scare as her Fibroscan shows LSM of 18.5 kPa ! She is clinically fine, with normal LFT. This case shows the fallacy of VCTE measurement in healthy right lobe donors in whom the remnant left lobe regenerates towards the left leading to error in LSM values! So interpret the Fibroscan values in relation to the clinical scenario & avoid it during follow up of right lobe liver donors!!

To all of our friends, customers, distributors and competitors: Please consider rallying around 3 year old Jake Warren. Jake's dad Brian Warren is a machining instructor at Meridian College in MS. Jake has been diagnosed with cancer, and is currently undergoing a fight for his life. As so many of you know, Cancer touches just about every family. I speak from direct experience. The fight against the disease is costly, not only emotionally, but financially. If you can assist by donating, go to the gofundme page  https://lnkd.in/e8vYe4hh If you can offer any support at all, thoughts, prayers, financial--it will make a difference for this family and little Jake. #aluminum #aerospacemanufacturing #aerospaceindustry #aerospaceanddefense #cncmachining #cncprogramming #cnc #machining #cncmilling #americanmade #americanmanufacturing #supplychain #metalworking #cadcam #mastercam #machineshop #machineshoplife #manufacturing #manufacturers #engineering #manufacturingengineering #manufacturingindustry #thankamachinist #cncmanufacturing #manufacturing #precisionmachining #precisionengineering #precisionmanufacturing #precisioncomponents #coolants #metalworkingfluids #lubricants #cnctooling #teched #votech #cte #trades #tradeschools #trades #machiningnerds #castiron #stainlesssteel Castrol Quaker Houghton Metalloid Corporation Master Fluid Solutions QualiChem Metalworking TotalEnergies Shell HollyFrontier The Lubrizol Corporation

Plasma is often referred to as "Liquid Gold" and for good reason! ✨ It is the yellow-ish colored portion of your blood that contains water, salt, and enzymes along with other things like antibodies, clotting factors, and proteins. So the name fits, not only for the color of your plasma, but for all of the good things that make up your plasma. Plasma is used to treat a variety of medical conditions and when you donate plasma, you're truly donating a life-saving resource. 💜 What are you waiting for?

RION recently hosted a blood drive in Rochester, MN, where our team, families, and community members donated blood. We recognize the importance of supporting our community through blood donations which indirectly supports our regenerative medicine applications that rely on platelets. Platelets are crucial for our regenerative medicine technology, as we biomanufacture regenerative exosomes vital for our tissue repair initiatives to help those in need “heal from within.” We've developed a proprietary process to isolate these exosomes from donated platelets, enabling mass production and scalability. Notably, RION utilizes platelets from blood donations nearing expiration, preventing waste and not drawing from the active blood supply.   Donating blood saves lives by providing essential transfusions for those in need, from accident victims to patients undergoing surgery or battling illness. Every two seconds, someone in the U.S. needs blood, emphasizing its essential role in community health. We extend our thanks to all blood donors for their support and encourage others who are considering donating blood to contact their local blood bank.    #RIONBloodDrive #RION #Exosomes #RegenerativeMedicine #Platelets

Back home from #paris2024 and back into the donation chair. If you're able, please make time to donate whole blood, plasma or platelets. #canadianbloodservices #canadaslifeline #imhereforthesnacks In a single-donor-platelet donation, blood drawn from the donor's arm goes first to a cell separator machine. This type of automated technology is called apheresis (pronounced "a-fur-e-sis"). The platelets are separated and sent to a collection bag and the remaining components are returned to the donor. Apheresis allows us to collect a larger, concentrated amount of a single blood component. Apheresis is a closed, sterile system utilizing single-use disposable needles and plastic tubing. The donation takes about one to two hours. https://lnkd.in/guKUhWs2
