Tech

As a growing essential industry, there are limitless opportunities for advanced skillsets in cannabis.

It’s no secret that cannabis has been a growing industry for years, and so naturally, opportunities abound. Cannabis supplies entire cities with a new industry, as well as dozens of jobs that go beyond the budroom. In an era where cannabis has been deemed essential, many see a bountiful opportunity and an allure to join the exciting and developing world of technology careers in the cannabis industry. 

A practical comparison of three common cannabis extraction methods.

Extraction technologies today fall into three distinct categories: clean, relatively unprocessed rosin; solvent-based extractions; and highly technical distillation and isolations. Each has a place in the consumer market of concentrated cannabis products, but they each supply a different niche.

Personalized cannabinoid formulations could be the future of cannabis supplementation.

Ask people what their first experience with cannabis was, and you will no doubt get a variety of answers: "I fell asleep," "I got the giggles," "It made me super paranoid," and so on. This variation arises from the chemical composition of the product, and how different people metabolize these compounds; a one-size-fits-all approach is rarely effective in recreational or therapeutic cannabis use.

While the world faces shutdowns and economic stoppages, the cannabis industry remains one of the select industries to continue operations. Through delivery services, mobile ordering, automation, and diversified demand, cannabis exists as a versatile and resilient industry.

Controlling the Properties of Moist Air to promote growth and mitigate fungal activity.

Psychrometrics is the study of moist air. What most people don’t know is that there are a lot of properties of moist air. The psychrometric condition of a cannabis grow room plays a large part in how plants function. It can affect the growth and final yield as well as having implications in the spread of disease, mold, and mildew. The same holds true for Drying and Curing as well as Processing and Packaging.

A new study will be looking at the impact of the novel coronavirus – COVID-19 – on patients who use medical cannabis.

A preliminary study looking at the impact of COVID-19 on cannabis patients, led by the University of Miami, will be utilising epidemiology expertise, and looking at data collected on the patterns and trends of medical cannabis patients during the coronavirus outbreak.

Leading High Speed Solvent Recovery Equipment

Electronic devices have changed chemistry. Just as home kitchen counters now feature machines—such as electric kettles and multicookers—that make food preparation more convenient, so modern laboratory benches have dedicated labor-saving devices. For many labs, especially within organic chemistry, one of the most commonly seen and frequently used pieces of equipment is the rotary evaporator. Next-generation, electronic rotary evaporators are beginning to offer tangible and significant performance benefits.

After nearly 4 years of what some researchers saw as foot dragging, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) has announced it will evaluate 37 applications to grow marijuana for medical research and proposed new rules for the prospective growers that outline how the cannabis-growing program would work.
