NIST CannaQAP LightLab 3 Cannabis Analyzer Results
Amid the first rounds of testing in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cannabis Quality Assurance Program (CannaQAP), Orange Photonics’ LightLab 3 Cannabis Analyzer, a portable HPLC, performed extremely well when compared to the best cannabis testing labs in the world.
The Extraction Kinetic Curve
As the cannabis industry continues to mature, competitive advantages come, more and more, through efficiencies that lead to selling more product, creating better quality products, and achieving greater profit margins. From a supercritical CO2 extraction (ScCO2) standpoint, understanding the dynamics at play during an extraction is important for maximizing efficiency and throughput. One key concept of ScCO2 extraction is the kinetic curve.
