Scientists in cannabis extraction laboratories are bravely pioneering a new field of agro-chemical engineering.

Given its legal status as a controlled substance, researchers, producers, and developers still must be aware of a considerable number of regulatory guidelines and practices governing the cannabis industry.

Tully Stroud, Chief Scientific Officer for Elite Molecular Labs, talks about the growing field of cannabis extraction and refinement. 

A mass spectrometer analyzes molecules by determining the mass-to-charge ratio of ions. The ionization process requires careful consideration to ensure proper molecular separation without disintegration. Picking the right ionization option greatly extends the capabilities of mass spectrometry analysis and detection.

Visualizing neuronal connections is highly important for understanding brain organization and pathophysiology. However, this data has historically been obtained through invasive and often terminal procedures. Technological advances have permitted the development of a new era of neuroanatomical tracing techniques.   

Animal perfusion is important for a plethora of operations including multiple in vivo imaging modalities and targeted gene/drug delivery. Perfusion takes the right reagents, the right parameters, and a steady hand. Perfusion sounds relatively simple, but the subtleties involved makes reproducible execution challenging in practice.

Real-time measurement of the initial stage of an enzyme–substrate reaction is essential for reproducible enzyme kinetics data. Automated direct-flow injection systems couple with various detection and analytics platforms to offer the speed, precision, and flexibility required to carry out the reaction.

Cell microencapsulation is a novel and promising strategy in various disease settings. Syringe-based infusion pump apparatuses provide for a controlled release of the bioactive agents.
