Nous proposons une solution innovante et respectueuse de l’environnement pour produire du Cannabidiol (CBD), une molécule reconnue pour ses nombreuses applications thérapeutiques. Aujourd’hui, la production de CBD repose principalement sur la culture de la plante de cannabis et sur des procédés d’extraction chimique, des méthodes coûteuses, gourmandes en ressources naturelles et parfois polluantes. Grâce à […]

This research project has the overall objective of further studying the genetic diversity of South African cannabis landraces, with the goal of understind how they relate to other wile and landrace cannabis populations worldwide. This knowledge will help understanding the unique characteristics and adpatation of South African cannabis landraces, and reconstructing the human-mediated dispersal of […]

The spectral composition of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) reportedly results in higher crop yield and reduced thermal damage to plants. Given that the stomata response represents a link between the plant and the outside environment, exploring the relationship between photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, and transpiration is paramount. This study will investigate the photosynthetic efficiency and stomatal conductance […]

Bacterial cystitis (BC) is a common painful inflammatory disease of the urinary bladder due to an infection. Even with antibiotic treatment, BC continues to have significant negative impacts of patients’ quality of life due to pain and risk of recurrence. Altheda Wellness Innovation Inc. (Altheda) is a Maritime´s based biotechnology company that specialized in the […]

Cannabinoid uniformity is paramount to cannabis product quality and marketability. The objective of this study is to compare and evaluate two overhead lighting strategies to maximize yield and THC content in cannabis plants. The experiment will be replicated three times. This study will benefit the partner organization by determining which lighting strategy is superior for […]
