Real-time Quantitative Analysis of Cannabinoids in Cannabis

The medical marijuana industry has attracted significant attention recently due to its impending legalization in Canada in the coming year. Along with legalization comes the need for accurate and dependable characterization of the components in the product that is to be consumed by the end user. Keystone Labs is a certified cannabis analysis lab with a growing client base. Hence, they are looking to increase their market share by developing a home testing kit that can be used by growers to monitor the plant’s chemical composition as it matures. This will guide the grower’s care plan for the plants such that desired compounds can be enhanced. Once the plant has the desired composition, the plant can then be shipped to Keystone Labs for final analysis and composition certification. TO BE CONT’D
