Oxygen USP
We are a long time provider of USP grade oxygen and bulk oxygen storage equipment to medical facilities, for the treatment or prevention of insufficient oxygen in the blood (hypoxemia and hypoxia). 

Medical Air USP
Medical air USP is used extensively in the ICU, PICU and NICU areas, and with pulmonary nebulizers to reduce the risk of excess oxygen in the lungs or other body tissue (hyperoxia) during mechanical ventilation or surgical procedures. 

Nitrogen NF
Nitrogen NF is often used in pre-flight lung testing to measure a person’s response to a simulated aircraft cabin environment (hypoxic challenge testing) as well as to power medical devices, and as a cryogen to freeze and preserve blood, tissue, and other biological specimens, and to freeze and destroy diseased tissue in cryosurgery and dermatology. 

Nitrous Oxide USP
Nitrous oxide USP is used in the healthcare industry as an analgesic and adjunct to anesthesia. 

Helium USP and Heliox USP
Mixtures containing helium USP are often used for the treatment of fixed partial upper obstruction or increased airway resistance, helping patients breathe easier. It is also used in liquefied form to help MRI machines reach a superconductance state in order to produce high-resolution body images without radiation exposure. 

Carbon Dioxide USP
Used for insufflation, carbon dioxide USP can also be combined with oxygen or air for respiratory simulation.
